Bio Mat

The BioMat complements many health disciplines, providing a pleasant and stimulating treatment experience for patients and excellent short- and long-term results. Our professional clients include: massage therapists; acupuncture & TCM practitioners; yoga teachers; craniosacral therapists; naturopaths; estheticians; fitness trainers; physiotherapists; and chiropractors.

The BioMat provides deep treatment of a patient’s circulatory and musculoskeletal system, promoting swifter healing, reducing inflammation, increasing circulation and oxygen absorption and producing a state of profound relaxation.

The healing benefits of the BioMat’s far infrared rays and negative ion therapy are far-ranging and applications include:

  • Sports and recreational injuries
  • Post-surgery healing
  • Circulatory issues
  • Age-related muscle and joint pain
  • Arthritis, neuralgia, bursitis
  • Chronic neck and back pain, and related headaches
  • Build-up of toxicity and oxidants, including heavy metals, residual alcohol, nicotine, sodium, sulfuric acid and cholesterol.
  • Immunodeficiency and weak immune system
  • Anxiety, sleep irregularity, insomnia

Based on advanced scientific research

The BioMat’s unique medical and therapeutic properties are based on Nobel prize-winning research into ionic channels and the same infrared technology that NASA identified as the safest and most beneficial type of light wave.  By producing deep-penetrating, far infrared rays along with negative ions that activate the body at the molecular level, the BioMat is capable of administering deep stimulation and healing.

The BioMat has undergone rigorous third-party testing, including FDA registration and ISO certification.  The efficacy of the device’s far infrared rays has been confirmed by the Korea Institute of Far Infrared Applied Estimation. The device comes with a 30 Year Limited Warranty on all parts and components.

 

How the BioMat Works

The technologies underlying the BioMat medical products are not new.  In fact, some of the underlying concepts have existed for more than a thousand years, while others have been refined or confirmed by modern science and medicine.  However, it is only recently that far infrared and negative ion technologies have been used in the development of medical products that are affordable enough for home users and independent health professionals.

Three complementary technologies deliver powerful results

The BioMat products are made possible by three complementary technologies that work synergistically to deliver powerful healing treatments.  The first of these technologies first came to light when two gifted scientists, Dr. Erwin Neher and Dr. Bert Sakmann, discovered that ion channels exist in our body cells that are capable of stimulating the cells and altering the cell membranes to allow cells to communicate with one another.  These ion channels essential act like “pores” in the cells, letting external stimuli deep into the centre of the cell.  They are even capable of stimulating new memory traces in the brain!  Neher and Sakmann revolutionized the field of cell biology and received the Nobel Prize in 1991 for their discovery.

The BioMat stimulates ion channels by producing negative ions that deliver healing energy to the cells of the body.  When cells have enough negative ions both inside and out, they are able to absorb nutrition optimally and eliminate waste more efficiently.  When cells are not getting enough negative ions, cell health deteriorates, leading to a wide range of diseases, lowered immune response and general poor health.

Far infrared spectrum therapy

The effectiveness of light therapy has been acknowledged by the mainstream medical profession for some time now.  Laser light has been used to tone and rejuvenate skin and reduce fine lines.  Real and artificial sunlight has been used to treat acne, boost immunity and treat conditions such as depression and Seasonal Affective Disorder.  Many scientists have found that wavelengths of light are almost as integral to mental and physical health as vitamins and minerals.

The beneficial properties of far infrared light have received particular attention from the scientific community in recent years, although the first research conducted on this part of the light spectrum was undertaken by NASA decades ago.  More recent studies suggest that far infrared light stimulates the production of healthy cell tissue, promoting faster, more complete healing processes.  Far infrared therapy also encourages the elimination of cellular wastes and toxins. Today, health practitioners from a wide range of disciplines agree on the beneficial properties of far infrared technology.

Natural superconducting properties deliver deep treatment

The third technology incorporated into the BioMat is the oldest and most valued throughout the centuries.
Amethyst’s healing powers have been celebrated for thousands of years.  The ancient Greeks believed it protected against intoxication[HJ1] . In fact, the word originates from the Greek word, “amethustos” or “sobriety.” Leonardo da Vinci believed that amethyst had the power to protect against evil and to increase intelligence. Buddhists use the stone to enhance peace and tranquility during meditation.  Today, modern science shows us that centuries of lore surrounding the stone’s healing powers are supported by its unique physical characteristics, including its piezoelectric properties, which allow it to carry both a negative and a positive charge simultaneously.  The outermost layer of every BioMat product is covered with channels of pure amethyst through which the far infrared rays must pass.  The superconducting properties of the amethyst layer turn these rays into long wavelengths capable of safely penetrating the body as deeply as seven inches.

A treatment that combines the best of science and holism

The BioMat uses verified scientific principles to deliver holistic treatment that reaches the whole body.  The Biomat provides a non-invasive, soothing experience that addresses the root causes of many common ailments.  As well as providing immediate relief from some types of pain and discomfort, the therapy builds long-term resistance to disease and deterioration.
