The sun is a source of radiant heat. This means that it heats up objects and not just the air around it. It is the reason that you relax when your skin is touched by the sun’s rays .

One of the reported benefits of far infrared heat (otherwise known as FIR, or radiant heat) is that it helps to relieve pain better than the more topical, less absorbent conventional heat that we are exposed to from our furnace in the winter. It also happens to be a “green” choice when used as a heater for the home because it is more energy efficient.

This type of heat therapy may benefit cancer patients, those with cardiac health problems, stress and anxiety reduction, and even cellulite and skin improvement.

Radiant heat has also shown to be quite beneficial to those with arthritis, providing short term relief with no adverse side effects, and providing stimulation to the circulatory system that they can`t otherwise experience because of their physical limitations.
