Germanium Power:
Far-Infrared Treatment

The far-infrared ray (FIR) treatment created by FGXpress Power Strips are a key to its ability to relieve pain naturally, efficiently, and quickly... and not just the symptom of muscular pain but the actual irritation itself!

It's been shown that our bodies respond to this energy frequency with increased health. This technology is being used to help people heal in many advanced hospitals and clinics today. And more studies are being done all the time to discover what else it may help with.

As you can see in this image, before the Power Strip was applied, the energy in the body is fairly low (only a little red frequency showing, and faintly). After the Power Strip is on, though, you can see that the far-infrared energy is greatly increased.

This clearly shows that the Power Strips are effective at increasing the FIRs within the body.

How Do They Do That??

The exterior layer of the Power Strips is impregnated with elemental germanium. This is a natural earth mineral with a very special ability to generate energy waves from your own body-heat.

The germanium gathers the energy given off by your body, refocuses it, and reflects it back deep into your body in the far-infrared spectrum.

This results in a delivery of energy directly into your cells, organs, and systems, as well as muscles.

These waves penetrate deep within the body, activating cells and bodily system.

This provides natural pain relief by creating warmth deep within the muscles, as well as promoting increased circulation, particularly in the area near the patch.

According to my research, germanium may also have the ability to balance the ions in the human body, removing ions with a harmful charge. This isn't something that FGXpress talks about, though, and the research on this seems to be just beginning.

Still, the natural pain relief from the FIR treatment alone is significant!

Benefits of Far-Infrared Treatments

FIR treatment is a therapy that has been used for thousands of years and across the world, including in India, Egypt, Japan, China, Europe, and the pre-Columbian Americas.

What makes far-infrared waves so helpful is that these rays penetratrate all layers of the human body, accessing even the deepest tissues and bones.

In fact, our bodies generate their own far-infrared energy, which is what's thought to be used in Reiki and other healing-touch treatments.

What Does This Mean For You?

There seems to be one primary effect of far-infrared treatment, with all kinds of natural healing benefits:

It activates the nitric-oxide pathways in the body.

This dilates your blood vessels, immediately setting in motion a healing process by...

• Increasing circulation (blood flow)
• Increasing relaxing warmth deep within the body
• Flushing away metabolic wastes
• Speeding up detoxification at the deepest level
• Infusing all your cells with more oxygen

Far Infrared Health Benefits

The results? Giving all the organs, muscles, and systems of your body more energy, improved wellbeing, and better functioning.

In practical terms, you’ll notice that you have increased energy, more stamina, and faster recovery after exertion. It's also being widely touted as a way to build your muscles.

This also boosts your immune system! It increases the number of white blood cells and killer T-cells. (Plus, I'd think that since your whole body is less toxic, your immune system can focus more on external invaders.)

Regarding our main topic of natural pain relief, this has also been shown to very effectively reduce muscle aches and spasms, and relieve rheumatoid arthritis pain.

Studies by NASA have even shown that it helps the cardiovascular system, keeping the heart healthy. Other studies, such as those by the Mayo Clinic and published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology, found that it helped with conditions of…

• diabetes
• high-cholesterol
• high blood pressure
• coronary artery disease risk factors
• arrhythmias of the heart
• kidney dialysis
• smokers
• poor circulation
• high blood sugar
• sexual dysfunction (Viagra works through the nitric oxide pathways)
• and weight loss

A spiritually-minded pain sufferer might be interested to know that nitric oxide may also be involved in spiritual awakening! (Check out this article on The Biology of Kundalini.) (Link Opens in New Window)

The Synergy Effect

So this nitric oxide effect on the blood vessels multiplies the benefits of the rest of the Power Strips' technologies — that is, when you put all the 5 technologies of the Power Strips together, the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. That's synergy.

Specifically, with greater blood flow from the far-infrared effect, the nutrients delivered by the Power Strips are more quickly and fully absorbed into the body!

The Energy Benefit

So the germanium delivers a far-infrared energy boost directly into your cells, organs, and systems, as well as muscles.

Dr. Minsu Kim, the creator of Power Strips, calls this energy-boost "Wave Energy Technology." He believes that such a wallop of added vital energy naturally boosts the health of the whole body.

And when your energy and health is increased, pain will naturally be reduced.

More and more, we're becoming aware that life is energy, and that our level of health reflects our level of energy.

We gain health by filling our lives with energy-boosting things, like plenty of nutrients, good friends, and love (see this article on Energy Is Health for lists of energy boosters and energy drains).

Power Strips are a perfect — an effortless! — way to increase your daily energy balance and long-term health. 


"What Is This Nitric Oxide You Speak Of?"

Nitric oxide may be the most important health discovery in ages. In fact, it was hailed as “Molecule of the Year” in 1992. (Who even knew there was a molecule of the year??)

Turns out this humble 2-part molecule is vital to our survival, and our health. It regulates the functioning of our two most important organs, the heart and the brain. It's one of the key messenger molecules within us, contributing to virtually every organ system within the body. And it's renowned for helping us maintain normal blood pressure and blood flow to tissues.

Losing the ability to generate Nitric Oxide in your body puts us at risk for a number of diseases, including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and even Alzheimers.

"The discovery of Nitric Oxide and its function is one of the most important in the history of cardiovascular medicine." 


~ President of the American Heart Association,
quoted in The New York Times

Now, what exactly is a nitric oxide pathway, you might be wondering. I sure am! It's devilishly hard to pin down, but as I understand it, it's not a physical path like a nerve or vein.

"Pathway" seems to describe the way nitric oxide is created by the body, and the way it then creates other chemical messengers to influence the body, for example, by getting our arteries to relax and open up more.

(If you know more about this, please share the info with me so I can share it with others. Thanks! )
