Remarks

Aches and Pain
(Muscular)

Locally and along the nerves
toward the vertebra.

30 to 40

3 to 10

Soft tissue pain, such as in muscles, tendons, and ligaments can have many causes. The symptoms can also be varied: tenderness, referred pain, muscle spasm, stiffness, and painful cramping. Heat treatment is appropriate.

Arthritis

Locally, in the vicinity of the joint.

30 to 40

3 to 10

Use medium or low dosage for acute arthritis
to reduce pain and swelling. With repeated treatments, the pain will go away.

 Bed Wetting

Along the 12th thoracic vertebrae to the 3rd lumbar vertebrae, the lower abdomen near the bladder and the perineal area.

30 to 40

3 to 10

Apply occasionally to the inner thighs.

Bronchitis
(Chronic)

Locally (from neck to chest)

30 to 40

5 to 20

In general, use radiant therapy to encourage
the discharge of phlegm from the bronchi.

 Edema of Joints

Locally

20 to 30

3 to 12

Some get relief of edema of the knee in as
few as 3 to 4 treatments.

Frost Bite
Chilblains

Locally

10 to 20

3 to 12

Far Infrared radiation markedly improves blood circulation and results are achieved without resort to medication due to enhanced
circulation and metabolism.

Headache
(Temporal)

Locally

20 to 30

1 to
6

Apply a little radiant heat in conjunction
with relaxation therapy.

Inflammations of
Shoulder Area

Locally, toward the lower cervical vertebra
and on the stellate ganglion

20 to 40

10 to 20

The effects of treatment on this malady are particularly striking. Both pain from motion and pain at rest go away as treatments continue. Subjective symptoms abate and the
X-ray picture improves.

 Itching

Locally

20 to 40

5 to 10

When used for itching of the female genitalia (rashes, etc.) it should be used the same way radiant heat treatment is used in dermatology.

 Lumbago

Along the spine from the 3rd lumbar vertebra to the 1st coccygeal vertebra and
the spinous processus.

20 to 40

2 to 10

Muscular pain due to overexertion will be relieved by treatment. But with degenerative bone and nerve pathologies, a combination of therapies should be used. For severe pain, use a corset.

Neuralgia
(Intercostal)

Along the ribs and vertebra.

20 to 30

5 to 10

Intercostal nerves run near the surface,
so local heat treatment works well. Effectiveness is judged by diminished tenderness in the area of the nerves. Irradiate the spinous processus
from time to time.

 Neuralgia
(Post Herpetic)

Along the vertebra and the nerves
serving the afflicted areas.

20 to 30

3 to 10

Herpes occurs in areas that control sensory nerves. Eliminate the herpes and in many cases the neuralgia will be cured.

Neuralgia
(Tri facial)

Locally

20 to 30

10 to 15

Whe the cause is known, treat the cause. Radiant therapy is effective for idiopathic problems. Treat locally as well as the locus of pronounced tenderness. For Hypersensitivity, reduce the dosage.

Rheumatism

Locally and along the nerves to vertebra

20 to 30

10 to 20

Causes expansion of local blood vessels, increases circulation and so increases metabolism and reduces pain and inflammation, whether for muscular rheumatism, or lumbago.

Rheumatism
(Muscular)

Locally, along the nerves toward the vertebra

30 to 40

10 to 20

Appropriate for fascia is non-articular rheumatism. The objective of the treatment is pain relief and muscle relaxation.

Sciatica

Along the nerves toward the 3rd lumbar vertebra through the 1st sacral vertebra, along the ischium.

20 to 40

5 to 20

Irradiate along the sciatic nerve for 5 to 10 minutes and then finish by illuminating the lumbosacral plexus for a short duration.

Sprain

Locally

5 to 15

5 to 15

Use low radiation while swelling is severe and after the tenderness subsides, apply moderate heat to the joint and surrounding areas.

Tendinitis

Locally

5 to 10

5 to 20

Inflammation of the tendon sheath is categorized as being either acute or chronic. Suppurative tenosynovitis should be treated surgically promptly. Depending on the cause, radiant heat is useful in lessening the pain of chronic tenosynovitis.

Upper Arm and
Shoulder Pain

Locally and along the nerves toward the vertebra.

20 to 30

3 to 10

Degenerative diseases associated with aging, such as shoulder stiffness and scapulohumeral periarthritic syndrome, are improved and pain lessened through a combination of heat therapy and exercise.
