Infrared Heating Pad: a History of Infrared Heating Pad

What a FAR Infrared Heating Pad can do for you? Are you having trouble sleeping due to pain and inflammation? Having difficulty sitting at your computer all day without experiencing headaches and neck pain. Just try to order A Far Infrared Light Pad. A Far Infrared mat is not a heating pad. It is health device using the far infrared light, which is part of the eletro-magnetic light spectrum, to promote active positive cell activity and healing throughout the body. Far Infrared Light is close to the frequency of the sun but it doesn’t contain any harmful UV lights that comes along with sun exposure. This technology was developed long ago by NASA but medical professionals are now taking notice and are in agreement regarding its effectiveness when used for pain and inflammation. FAR infrared pads work by stimulating the cells and tissues. The even distribution of heat energizes them. Your body reacts to the FAR infrared heat the way it would react to the warmth from sun rays. It is a part of the electro-magnetic spectrum that has been proven to effect biological tissue. Far Infrared heating pads are not like regular heating pads. Regular heating pads are hot on the surface, which heats up the skin it comes in contact with. A FAR infrared heating pad actually heats up your body from within. The infrared pad is heated using infrared light, which like the sun’s light, will actually penetrate a few inches deep. This is why infrared pads are superior for pain relief, circulation, reducing inflammation and muscle recovery. FAR infrared light promotes healing in the body by penetrating 2 to 6 inches deep, stimulating cells and tissue. It promotes micro-circulation between cells and reduces bacterial growth. The surrounding tissues receive increased available energy and it reduces tension in muscles and stress on your body. Everyone can benefit from FAR Infrared light therapy, particularly those individuals who live with pain and inflammation, and a FAR Infrared Pad is an excellent way to get infrared light therapy at home. Our FAR Infrared Pads sell out fast, just stop by and order your own far infrared heating pad by visiting UTK shop or send inquiry to utkheatpads@utktechnology.com.

If you suffer from chronic pain in your muscles, joints, tendons, nerves, tissues, organs, etc… I’m about to introduce to you your new best friend – the far infrared heating pad! It works so well for me for relief from deep muscle pains and injuries, chronic lower and upper back pain, menstrual cramps and cysts, joint pain, arthritis, bladder pain from interstitial cystitis, neck and shoulder pain, liver and gallbladder dysfunction, tendonitis, any kind of nerve pain, and more. I honestly had no idea what I was getting exactly when I purchased this item. As someone who suffers with chronic Lyme disease, I listen pretty closely to what Dr. Jay Davidson says to do. He has a new book out recently called, “How to Fix Lyme Disease”. If you have Lyme and you have not read this book, I HIGHLY recommend that you do! Dr. Jay is on top of the game in the Lyme Disease world! He has first hand experience with it as his wife was gravely ill with it for years. He has some new and interesting information and products to offer in that book. He talks a lot about infrared heating pads. So, naturally, I followed his suggestion and ordered one for myself. Here are a few reasons why you need an infrared heating pad, and why it’s different from your typical heating pad or hot water bottle. First, the far infrared heating pad can penetrate much deeper into your body than a standard electric heating pad! The electric heating pads that most of us have (myself included until about a year ago), omit electric heat from cotton and carbon fibers. This kind of heat can only penetrate 2-3mm deep. So essentially, it’s really only heating the skin that’s on top of all of the things inside of you that are causing pain. The far infrared heating pads use jade, amythest, and tourmaline stones to convert light energy into infrared heat energy which reaches much deeper at up to 5 cm below the surface! So this kind of heat is really getting down into your muscles, tissues, and bones. Also, infrared heating pads will never leave burns or rashes on your skin like electrical ones and hot water bottles can. I can absolutely feel the difference between these two. When I have pain and I turn this infrared heating pad on, it takes much less time for the pain to ease and often dissolve, and I can feel that it reaches deeper into areas where I need it. I have interstitial cystitis and I can feel the heat waves getting deep into my bladder tissues where the pain is intense! It can relieve some of the worst and deepest pain I have! Also, the infrared heating pads will help your blood to circulate! This helps to promote healing, and remove toxins. I also personally think that the infrared heat can help kill infections, I’ve read this in different places before, but it’s been my experience as well. The benefits of the heat from the infrared pads also last up to 6 hours after using it for only 30 minutes, while the electric pads only provide relief while the pad is heated and on you. I can also attest to this! When I use this on my bladder area for a half an hour I can take it off and feel much better for quite some time before I need it again. It helps so much when I have pain at night because I put it on, and then within a half an hour I can take it off and the pain relief lasts through the night. A few other benefits of the far infrared heating pads worth mentioning are that I have noticed that it provides a major amount of stress relief for me! When I’m working hard on something or have a lot of stress in my life and I feel frazzled and unable to calm myself down, I put on the heating pad even if I don’t have any significant pain happening, and it definitely relaxes me. It also helps to calm my dog’s nerves! He loves it! Something about the warmth just makes us both release the stress and puts us at ease. I put it on every night while I’m reading in bed and trying to fall asleep. It is always helps me to fall asleep faster! I also use the infrared heating pad to help my liver and gallbladder. Sometimes when the liver and gallbladder get backed up with bile, I can get pretty sick. Putting the heating pad on those areas helps those organs to release the bile. So, I start to feel better faster. This is one thing Dr. Jay mentions doing in his new book on Lyme Disease, but really, it is beneficial to anyone. The infrared heating pad also helps to improve your range of motion of muscles and joints that are injured. Because it helps increase blood flow and circulation to that area, you’ll find you can more easily move around. It is beneficial for people with arthritis, too! If you also have pain in your neck and shoulders like so many of us do from sitting at a desk all day, or from Lyme, or other chronic illness, these heating pads work wonders. I am going to get another that’s just for the neck and shoulders. You can roll this one up, but I’m sure the neck and shoulder one lays more nicely. The last thing I’ll touch on about these amazing heating pads, that not many people know, is that they do not omit EMFs, also known as electromagnetic fields. We probably all know by now that EMFs are very harmful and toxic. This is the reason why we aren’t supposed to live directly under power lines. EMFs cause radiation and lead to different kinds of cancers, cause disruption of hormones in our bodies, create sleep and anxiety problems, and so much more. Far infrared heating pads to not omit EMFs. They are so safe that they are often used in neonatal units to produce heat to keep infants warm. They also do not omit any UV rays in case you were wondering. You are much safer using an infrared heating pad than an electric one! This heating pad shown here is face up so that I could show you the stones that are attached to it which heat up to produce the infrared heat. But, when you use it, you will want to put the stone side down on your body over the area which causes you pain. I have the 15″x19″ size for smaller areas such as the bladder or liver and gallbladder, and I also have the 21″x32″ for full back and body use as well. I am 5’3, so if you are taller, you might consider one of the longer ones. I use them both equally, honestly. They serve different purposes. I like to have the small one for traveling. They both come with a travel bag, too! Our cars both have plugs where you can plug them in for long car rides, too, which is great! They also both have memory remotes that keep your usual desired temperature set, all you have to do is turn it on and click a button and it will heat up to the temperature you like. It also auto shuts off after a certain period of time that you select to keep it on for. They are very easy to use, don’t be scared by the remote technology! It’s very simple and helpful.

Seniors are more likely to suffer from diseases such as chronic fatigue, arthritis, falls and injuries, chronic pains in the back and joints, elevated blood pressure, sleep disorders and many other conditions. Lifestyle habit and diet changes are often part of the overall treatment of these conditions. But there is also much to be said for time-tested techniques such as heat therapy and its latest version, Far Infrared Therapy, to FIR Therapy, which can provide natural pain relief. Far infrared light is the frequency of invisible light that is generated naturally by the sun. FIR Therapy is a type of low energy therapy that takes advantage of the heat generated by waves of energy from the far end of the infrared spectrum. This safe and natural alternative therapy can be used in the treatment of a variety of health problems such as arthritis, muscle pain and spasms and shoulder or joint stiffness. FIR therapy also benefits the body by: Helping the body remove toxins through perspiration Reducing tension and stress Improving lymphatic flow Boosting the immune system Increasing the circulation of blood deep in the tissues Far infrared waves can penetrate up to three inches deep to generate warmth that can provide immense relief to muscles and internal organs. The gentle heat produced in far infrared heat therapy exerts an analgesic effect and can help reduce or eliminate chronic pains that seniors often experience in various parts of the body. Stiffness in the joints from arthritis can be significantly relieved. Studies show that far infrared heat makes connective tissue more flexible, permits greater joint movement and brings about increased levels of endorphins, which ease pain. Far infrared therapy also causes blood vessels to expand. This expansion leads to improved circulation and allows the immune system cells and chemicals to converge on the injured areas to facilitate the healing process. Despite the heat induced, FIR therapy does not cause any significant rise in core body temperature or in blood pressure, which makes it safer for seniors with cardiovascular problems. There are several types of far infrared therapy devices on the market today that provide both direct and indirect heat therapy. FIR saunas can be used to deliver whole body or indirect therapy while far infrared heating pads, clothing and bedding supplies may be used for localized applications. Each of these types of FIR therapy uses different means to produce far infrared heat. Far infrared saunas use carbon/ceramic heaters to generate indirect heat in the form of low energy far infrared waves. Heating pads utilize individual natural jade stones, and far infrared clothing and far infrared bedding such as undergarments, therapy gloves, joint braces, socks, sheets and pillows use specially designed infrared emitting fabrics to produce the infrared heat. All of these different types of therapy generate radiant heat that penetrates deep into the body to provide natural pain relief and other health benefits.

Best far-infrared heating pad. What’s the purpose (For back, neck, belly, shoulder, or legs) Is the FIR heating pad intended for a specific portion or is it multipurpose? Some heating pads are designed for the neck, shoulder, and hands. With their size and shape, they are not suitable for back pain relief. If you want to use it for different areas of the body, buy a multifunctional heating pad that can be placed on the back, belly, and joints. When rolled up, you can use it as a neck heating pad. Auto shut-off An automatic switch-off guarantees safety for you. Most heating pads turn off after 60 to 90 minutes. If you fall asleep during use, the automatic function ensures that the device does not heat up continuously which could overheat as a result. Overheating protection A heating pad with overheating protection offers you additional safety protection in addition to the automatic switch-off. If the temperature is too high, the power supply is deactivated directly. Temperature levels Most models have three levels of temperature control. The majority of the heating pads work with an output of 100 watts, which gives you temperatures between 30 and 70 Celsius degrees. Removable cover The application of heat may cause you to sweat which is drawn into the cover. Dust and debris accumulate on the surface. You might want an infrared heating pad designed with a removable cover or a separable control element. This makes it possible to clean the product in a washing machine. Length of the power cord Depending on where your electrical outlet is located, a longer power cord can be very helpful. Most models have a power cord that is approximately eight feet. How to use the heating pad properly？ When using the heating pad, you should pay attention to a few points. Connect the heating pad to the socket with the power cord. During use, lay it flat on the intended parts of the body. Do not bend it if you want it to be more durable. Do not sit on the heating pad, as otherwise, the heating elements can suffer a defect and the product can no longer distribute the heat evenly. To heat up the heating mat quickly, select the highest temperature level and then adjust it to a comfortable level. Most heating pads switch off automatically after 60-90 minutes. To use the heating pad again, press the power button and then set the temperature level again. The heating pad will then give you another 60-90 minutes of warmth. Disconnect the product from the electrical circuit after use. This prevents it from being switched on unintentionally. Do not put the entire heating pad into the washing machine. Only wash the cover and make sure it’s completely dry before use. Are there alternatives to far-infrared heating pads? Chemical heating pads. These heating pads are filled with sodium acetate and a tiny piece of metal. Pressing the metal piece will trigger a chemical reaction inside the cushion. The sodium acetate crystallizes and heats up within seconds. A chemical heating pad will keep you warm for a few hours. Microwave heating pads are made of anti-inflammatory fabric, which is filled with a heat-storing material. Rice, barley, or wheat are often used for the filling. Put it in the microwave and warm it up for a period of time. And then it is ready to use. The hot water bottle is classic heat therapy. This heat source can be used flexibly because it does not require a power source. The disadvantage of the hot water bottle is that the heat is relatively short-lived. Compared to the electric pads, the hot water bottle is relatively small, so that it can only be used for smaller parts of the body. Another disadvantage is the material. It might lead to leakage of water if it is defective or improperly used. Holes, damage, or an improperly inserted cap can cause burns by the hot water. Battery-operated hand warmers. The small device is very portable and compact. They provide heat conveniently and can be used on the go. Rechargeable hand warmers keep your hands toasty warm in winter. Sometimes they are used as heat therapy for people with Raynaud's. Cherrystone thermal pillows. Cherry hot pillows work like chemical heating pads. They are particularly popular with babies and toddlers for stomach pain relief. Any side effects? No side effects have been found in using an FIR heating pad so far. Unlike the traditional heat therapy that tends to make you profusely sweat, FIR therapy is a light loading to the human body. A far-infrared heating pad is operated under low temperatures. It won't overheat your skin.

What is Far Infrared Radiation or FIR? The History behind the treatment: Far Infrared Radiation (FIR) utilizes very specific light waves along the electromagnetic spectrum. All living things on earth are subjected to parts of the electromagnetic spectrum on a daily basis. The radiation from the sun, which is part of the electromagnetic spectrum, reaches the earth every day and without it, life on earth would not exist! The sun’s rays are powerful and can allow plants and other organisms to grow, heal and be nourished. However, over-exposure to the sun’s rays can cause damage, including sunburn or skin cancer. Therefore, it is critical that the dosage and power of electromagnetic waves, including Far Infrared waves, is controlled and falls within a specific wavelength on the spectrum. The Science behind the treatment: Light consists of ultraviolet rays, visible light (which our eyes can see) and infrared light which falls just past visible red light on the spectrum...hence the name infrared! Science has determined that light specific to the infrared spectrum has healing properties. Just recently, manufacturing processes have allowed companies to develop technology that permits diodes or special fibers to be made that will emit non-harmful pure far infrared radiation (FIR) to be delivered through the human skin in a controlled, safe and effective fashion. Thereby, allowing individuals suffering from pain due to injury to significantly reduce the associated pain and hasten recovery. The Biological effects of the treatment: Far infrared radiation, used at the Injury Care Center, is accomplished typically through the use of a FIR heating pad that is provided for safe, effective and controlled use at home as an adjunct to formal medical care, including physical therapy or chiropractic. The pad is impregnated with special diodes that produce this light wave...but remember, you can’t see it with your naked eye as it is not in the visible spectrum. This system provides a heating component to the injured tissues such as pulled muscles, sprains, strains, herniated discs suffered in a car accident or work injury, for example. The difference between using this and an “ordinary” electric hot pad is two-fold. A far infrared heating pad penetrates much deeper (2.36 inches) below the skin to help heal where the injury tends to be and it does so at a lower surface temperature.Most electric heat pads on the market will heat just your skin layer and not the deeper muscles and they typically reach 130 degrees, which places you at risk of burns to the skin with ordinary electric hot pads.The deeper heat provided by a FIR heating pad, is typically no more than 112 degrees at the skin’s surface, thereby reducing any chance of skin burns, yet FIR will also provide longer lasting relief, many times up to six hours relief after the end of treatment. What Conditions Can Far Infrared Radiation (FIR) Treat? Far Infrared Radiation (FIR) can be used to treat the pain associated with: neck pain, low back pain, shoulder pain, hip pain and knee pain.As well as, sprains & strains, tendonitis, tendinosis, sciatica, plantar fasciitis, neuropathy, RSD, epicondylitis, herniated disc pain, bursitis among many other conditions.There are several scientific studies attesting to the effectiveness of using Far Infrared Radiation (FIR), including the National Institute of Health (NIH) touting its biological effects and medical applications.Therefore, Far Infrared Radiation (FIR) Heating Pads have been proven safe and effective for many medical conditions and it is a treatment technique registered by the FDA for use in the United States. Are there any Precautions to using Far Infrared Radiation (FIR)? Each patient needs to be evaluated by a licensed medical provider prior to use of FIR. FIR heating pad must be prescribed by your doctor and all precautions provided. The precautions are similar to anytime that heating of an area is contraindicated. Also, unlike laser, the light energy emitted from a FIR heating pad is safe and does not pose a risk to your eyesight. FIR heating pad is a proven safe and effective treatment that many patients find as an effective means of controlling their pain from injury while at home without worrying about the risks of burns nor the side-effects of certain medications to control pain.

The pain of arthritis makes it tough for many people to get a good night’s sleep. Worse yet, tossing and turning at night can actually increase the perception of pain. “There’s a reciprocal relationship between pain and poor sleep. The poorer people sleep, the more pain they tend to be in,” says Kevin Fontaine, PhD, assistant professor of rheumatology at Johns Hopkins University. “If people with arthritis can improve their quality of sleep, they can usually reduce their day-to-day pain.” Here are eight tips for better sleep from arthritis experts. 1. Don’t Go to Bed With Joint Pain Managing arthritis pain is important at all times, but it’s particularly crucial before bed time. “If you go to bed in pain, you’re almost certain to have trouble sleeping,” says Fontaine. Try to arrange your medication schedule so it provides peak relief around the time you want to get in bed. Avoid doing activities in the evening that cause flare-ups of arthritis pain. “Some people with arthritis find they sleep better after taking a hot shower before bed time or using an electric blanket to ease joint pain,” says Andrew Lui, PT, DPT, assistant clinical professor, University of California, San Francisco. 2. Steer Clear of Stimulants Before Bedtime It’s hardly news that having coffee or other caffeinated beverages late in the day can interfere with sleep. But many people aren’t aware of other hidden sources of caffeine, including colas and some over-the-counter pain relievers. Always check labels to make sure you’re not getting caffeine. Black tea also contains stimulants that can make some people wide awake when they want to sleep. Herbal teas in the evening are a better choice if you’re having trouble sleeping. Alcohol may help some people fall asleep, but too much can disrupt sleep halfway through the night, leaving you wide awake and tossing. 3. Deal With Everyday Stresses The inevitable stresses of everyday life can also disrupt sleep. You can’t eliminate them all, of course, but you can put them in their place. “One strategy is to avoid stressful activities or thoughts before bed time,” says Fontaine. “Don’t watch the news if it gets you irritated. Don’t pay bills. Don’t make a list of all the things you have to do tomorrow.” Instead, arrange your schedule to do something relaxing in the hour or two leading up to bedtime. Listen to music. Read a book. Work on a hobby, as long as you find it calming. If you still find yourself fretting, practice some relaxation techniques such as meditation or progressive relaxation. 4. Exercise to Help Your Arthritis and Your Sleep Be as active as possible during the day. This will strengthen your muscles and joints -- and it can help make you tired enough to go to sleep. Activity has also been shown to ease stress, which promotes a restful sleep. Being active isn’t always easy when you’re suffering from arthritis. Still, activities such as swimming, water aerobics, and moderate walking are doable for many people with arthritis. “The common wisdom is to exercise earlier in the day, since exercise itself can be arousing,” says Fontaine. “But some of our patients like to do a little light activity in the evening -- a walk around the neighborhood, for instance -- to tire themselves out. The best advice is to find what works for you.” 5. Create a Sound Sleep Chamber Reserve your bedroom for sleep. That way, you’ll associate getting under the covers with falling asleep. “Avoid watching TV, reading, working on your computer, or doing other stimulating activities in bed,” says Wilfred Pigeon, PhD, assistant professor of psychiatry at the University of Rochester Sleep and Neurophysiology Research Laboratory and author of Sleep Manual: Training Your Mind and Body to Achieve the Perfect Night’s Sleep. “Make the bedroom as conducive to sleep as possible. Put up heavy curtains or shades to eliminate distracting lights. Use earplugs if sound is a problem.” What’s the best kind of mattress? Experts say a medium-firm mattress is often best for low back pain. “If you suffer from knee pain, try positioning a pillow under or between your knees to take some of the pressure off your joints,” says Kimberly Topp, PhD, professor and chair of the department of physical therapy and rehabilitation services at the University of California, San Francisco. “A small pillow under your neck can help align your spine and avoid neck pain while you sleep. Experiment to find what makes you comfortable.” 6. Don’t Linger in Bed It may sound paradoxical, but staying in bed too long can create poor sleep. To treat insomnia, experts often restrict the amount of time people spend in bed. “That way, you help ensure that when you do go to bed, you’re more likely to be sleepy enough to fall asleep,” says Pigeon. “If you find yourself lying in bed for more than 15 minutes unable to sleep, get out of bed and do something that’s not too stimulating until you’re sleepy enough to try going to sleep again.” The reason: you won’t associate the bed with feeling restless. Over time, this strategy will help you associate the bed with sleeping, not tossing and turning. 7. Use Sleeping Pills Sparingly Sleep medications may be useful for people who have acute insomnia. But if you’re suffering from chronic insomnia, which is often true for many people with arthritis, the first-line treatment should be better sleep hygiene, says Pigeon. “Medications treat the symptoms. Behavioral medicine can actually cure insomnia,” he says. In fact, some studies show that behavioral medicine may be more effective for many people. “Sleep medications are often useful for helping people get through a bad patch of insomnia,” says Pigeon. “But when people stop taking them, the insomnia often returns -- unless they learn to practice better sleep habits.” 8. Use Some Therapy Products Like the Amethyst Healing Stone products, the Amethyst stones have chakra, combined with far infrared heat it can relieve Arthritis and clear negative energy, improve sleep quality and moods.

The effects of heat are the same whether it's dry or moist, says Dr. Parikh. This means you'll still get the same benefits whether you sweat it out in a sauna or steam room. There is, however, one extra benefit to steam rooms for anyone who has respiratory problems like asthma or allergies. “Medications for these kinds of respiratory problems might dry out your breathing passages,” says Dr. Parikh. “Steam will moisturize and open the lungs a little more and hydrate the respiratory tract.” If you struggle with congestion, the steam can also act as a humidifier and help clear your nasal passages for easier breathing. Research on the use of dry saunas has shown that they can provide these benefits. 1. Improved circulation Anything that raises your body temperature will increase your heart rate, which in turn increases your circulation, says Denise Millstine, MD, an internist at Mayo Clinic’s family medicine office in Scottsdale, Arizona. Sitting in a sauna is almost like walking on a treadmill at a regular pace, says Dr. Parikh. Because of the heat, your heart has to pump harder to circulate your blood, which means you’re getting some cardio benefits even though all you’re doing is sitting in the heat. (Keep in mind, though, it's still no replacement for exercise, which has tons of other body-benefits.) 2. Lowered blood pressure Spending time in a sauna can lower your blood pressure, says Dr. Millstine, but you wouldn’t want to go into a sauna if you have uncontrolled blood pressure. “Studies have shown that traditional Finnish sauna bathing is associated with overall lower blood pressure when people are using it regularly, she explains. “So physiologically, much like exercise, your blood pressure would go up initially and then long-term, it would likely result in better management of your blood pressure and a lowering of your blood pressure.” In fact, people can see improved cardiovascular health from sauna use. Research shows that people who regularly use a sauna (at least four times a week for 20 minutes) have a significantly lower risk of heart attack, stroke, and dementia, notes Dr. Parikh. 3. Stress relief Sauna bathing is a regular part of Scandinavian culture, says Dr. Millstine, and is viewed as a way to destress and relax. 4. Glowy skin Using a sauna can benefit your overall skin health, as it’s bringing blood flow to the surface of your skin before you start sweating. “Regular sauna use makes the skin more robust, meaning it sort of firms it up and makes it more elastic, which is good for aesthetic reasons, but also because the skin acts like a general health barrier,” says Dr. Millstine. 5. Reduced joint stiffness and muscle soreness Using a sauna is beneficial for workout recovery, as it's going to result in loosening up any tense muscles after a workout. “The heat can make your muscles more pliable and elastic, so it would probably help with workout recovery soreness,” says Dr. Milstine. Anecdotally, people with stiff joints and body aches swear by saunas for easing pain. Sauna use can also help with tension-type headaches, likely because it reduces muscle soreness that contributes to them, she adds. 6. Stronger immune system Using a sauna isn’t directly tied to better immunity, but if you associate sauna bathing with relaxation, it can reduce stress, which can impair your immune system's function. Sauna usage has also been shown to decrease circulating levels of inflammatory markers, which mess with your immune system response too. 7. Better mood Some studies show that sauna sessions can lift your mood, which could, again, be tied to the relaxation factor. However, men in Finland who regularly used a sauna had a decreased risk of psychosis, according to one study, and sauna usage can reduce the risk of dementia and Alzheimer's disease, another study showed.

Your knees are a wonder. They’re the biggest, strongest, joints in your body, and most people use them almost constantly throughout the day to sit, stand, walk, jump, and bend. They bear 80% of your body weight when you stand still and 150% or more when you walk across the room. In a 160-pound person, that’s 240 pounds of force! Age, injury, and repeated motion might damage your knees and lead to osteoarthritis, one of the most common types of knee arthritis. In osteoarthritis, cartilage -- a smooth, slippery covering that helps the ends of your bones glide over each other -- slowly wears away. This allows bone to rub on bone. Typical symptoms like pain, swelling, stiffness, and loss of motion often get worse over time. Normal wear and tear is a big part of the reason you get osteoarthritis, especially after age 50, but an injury, or constant lifting, jarring, or bending, also might cause or worsen the condition. There are some things that might help protect your knees, or at least keep the damage to a minimum. 1.​ Lose some weight​ One study found that a one pound weight loss resulted in a four pound reduction of pressure and stress on the knee joint. Shedding excess weight can improve symptoms and sometimes they even disappear. And it isn’t only the weight. Fat cells in your body release chemicals that can lead to inflammation, which is hard on your joints and linked to osteoarthritis. Less fat could mean less inflammation. Still, not everyone should try to lose weight. Talk to your doctor about the best range for your size. Still, not everyone should try to lose weight. Talk to your doctor about the best range for your size. 2.​ Healthy Diet Proper nutrition through a diet full of vitamins and minerals plays an important role in bone health, particularly vitamins C, D and K and calcium. 3.​ Good Rest Sleep enables our bodies to repair and regenerate most of the damage from our often strestress filledes. Do not overlook the importance of getting adequate, consistent sleep. 4.​ Learn Some New Moves You’ll avoid repeated motion injury to your knees if you vary your activities instead of doing just one. For example, you might jog on Monday, lift weights on Tuesday, garden on Wednesday, and play with the kids on the weekends.Or you could try something off the beaten path: Yoga combines strength, flexibility, and balance training, and adds meditation that’s good for mental health.It also seems to be as good for your knees as other types of aerobic and strength training exercises. 5.​ Use some healthcare products​ Such as the Far Infrared Heating Pad- Featuring the best Carbon Fiber Heating Element, UTK Infrared Knee Heating Pad would emit far-infrared rays, which deeply and evenly penetrate throughout the body and muscle, bringing relief by increasing circulation.
