The BioMat - What is it?

November 24th, 2009

The Biomat is a natural health device which combines three healing modalities into one device. The Biomat is incredibly simple to use, meaning it can easily be utilized by any one who suffers from a health issue, no matter how serious the issue may be. It combines the power of far infrared energy, negative ions, and amethyst crystals. The Biomat has been approved for use by the FDA as a medical device.

The Biomat can be used for a multitude of health conditions, from minor issues to serious illnesses. It is able to do this because of the combined effects of the FIR, the negative ions, and the amplifying amethyst (which increases the power of the FIR). The most obvious effect of FIR is that it produces heat in the body, but while it is doing this it is actually healing at a cellular levels. Because of the amethyst crystals, the FIR are able to deeply penetrate the body by several inches, allowing very deep healing. Cancer cells have been shown to die at 107 degrees F, while other cells are able to function when heated to this level, which the FIR is able to do.

FIRs are able to relieve both pain and stress, which they accomplish by expanding the blood vessels, which assists in circulation. When there is better circulation, oxygen is better able to reach all parts of the body, including ones which have suffered an injury, thus helping to speed up the healing process. FIRs have also been shown to affect the body’s hormonal balance, improving levels of several important hormones including: melatonin, cortisone, prolactin, testosterone, and thyroid hormones. FIRs are also beneficial in decreasing inflammation and swelling in the body’s tissues.

Those who are unable to exercise due to illness or disability find the Biomat especially beneficial, as it enables them to participate in what amounts to a cardio workout that burns up to 600 calories in a half hour session, while they simply lie on it.

The body benefits from negative ions in many ways. When the body carries more positive ions than negative ones, the cell walls become less permeable, preventing elimination of waste and absorption of nutrients. On the other hand, when the body has more negative ions in the bloodstream, the cell walls become more permeable, assisting in elimination of waste and absorption of nutrients, also calcium and sodium levels increase which creates a more alkaline blood system. For a body to maintain its maximum health and functioning, an alkaline environment is essential, and alongside this, it’s been shown that cancer cells can’t survive in an alkaline environment.

Finally, the amethyst crystals in the Biomat help to amplify the FIRs, allowing them to penetrate more deeply into the body. Amethyst crystals are also known for their purifying and calming qualities.

Different applications of the Biomat call for different sizes. Fortunately, it is possible to buy Biomats to fit any sized bed, from single to king, and there are smaller Biomats designed for massage tables and similar, which are great for professionals who wish to utilize Biomats in their practices.

Cynthia Ryan loves to write about and talk about the Biomat to anyone who will listen! Once crippled by back pain, the Biomat gave Cynthia her life back, and she’s now able to do things she hadn’t done in over a decade.

How To Grow Taller With Regular Exercise

October 1st, 2009

By the time you get to your teens, you are already concerned in relation to your height and if you are less than normally tall, you have already started searching the internet and other domains, for ways and means to add those critical inches that will help achieve the proverbial status of “Tall, Dark and Handsome”.

The characters that control growth and height are also part of this. Stretching exercises are known to invigorate positive reactions from the human body. Many athletes and sports persons use regular stretching exercises to condition their body in their quest to reach the top of the line in their respective fields.

First of all, you must recognize the fact that the height of a person depends on the genetic address of the particular individual. It is the essential factor in the height of an individual. Beyond that the stretching exercises do have an effect on the structure of the human body. These stretching exercises are mainly used by athletes and other sports personalities to gain advantage in their respective sports and games.

Instead of being fooled by such products it would be better for an aspirant who wishes to grow taller, to take to regular exercises like cycling, swimming, jogging and anaerobic. These have been known to produce effective results due to increased secretion of hormones which have been credited with the “grow taller” phenomena.

Exercises for growth are aimed to sensitize growth hormones to effect physiological changes in the human body, which could be proved scientifically. The major elements in this action are the fabrication of nitric oxide and lactates, which are enhanced during these exercises and make the stretching action whole.

These hormones cause physiological changes to the human body. Exercises are supposed to enhance the production of nitric oxides and lactates which are part of the normal body process and these have been credited to aid and improve the stretching action of the body. The more you exercise, the more the secretion and these help to strengthen the bones and cartilages giving scope for more agility in the stretching exercises.

The stretching exercises assist the lactate to get to various muscles of the body to imbibe more power to them for better results. Thereafter, it is engaged in a continuous process of secreting growth hormones automatically even if the body is in rest period. The ultimate gain of the stretching exercises will be to find the mechanism of the body secreting growth hormones continually and the process goes on for the benefit of the human figure up to a time limit.
