What is Far Infrared (FIR) Therapy?
Far infrared therapy uses electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength of 0.78μm to 1000μm, which penetrates tissue to a depth of 4 cm, causing molecular vibrations and energy conversion into heat. It is a natural, non-invasive method of supporting health and beauty, used successfully in medicine for decades.
The NIRE chair combines two scientifically proven technologies: far infrared (FIR) radiation with the Zero Gravity position developed by NASA. This synergy provides deep body regeneration, pain relief, and skin rejuvenation effects.
What does the NIRE lounger help with and why does far infrared work?
Key action: blood vessel dilation (+81 ml/min flow), mitochondrial activation (more energy), inflammation reduction, regeneration stimulation.

Regeneration and Performance
| Effect | Research Results |
|---|---|
| Faster healing | 90% of patients: no/minimal pain after 6 weeks, +70% blood flow |
| Better performance | +22 sec. endurance, -18% lactate in athletes |
| Deeper sleep | Increased serotonin and melatonin, better REM phases |

Beauty and Anti-Aging Effects
- Collagen and elastin stimulation - 51-75% improvement in skin texture
- Protection against photoaging - inhibition of collagen-degrading enzymes
- Better complexion - improved microcirculation and skin oxygenation

Back Pain Relief
- Chronic lower back pain - significant reduction in 7 weeks
- Lumbar disc disease - improved flexibility, fewer spasms
- Degenerative disease - better mobility, joint pain reduction

Zero Gravity Position
Legs elevated above the heart, body weight evenly distributed:
- Relieves the spine - reduces pressure on discs
- Improves circulation - easier venous blood return
- Deepens relaxation - cortisol reduction
Synergy FIR + Zero Gravity = double decompression effect, enhanced oxygen delivery, optimal muscle and joint regeneration.
