Professional Uses

Massage therapists, chiropractors, physical therapists, spa technicians, rolfers, acupuncturists, energy workers, reiki practitioners, personal trainers, yoga instructors, pain specialists, hypnotherapists, psychotherapists, nutritionists, sound healers, tantrikas, alternative cancer specialists, and any other kind of body work oriented wellness practice. All of these professionals often Biomat sessions as part of their practice.  The Biomat Professional perfectly fits onto a massage table. 

Most clients feel extremely relaxed and experience a relief from temporary aches and pains. They also report freedom from stress and fatigue. “Wow, I feel amazing” is commonly heard coming off the Biomat. It is remarkably comfortable, and its warm heating function makes it very enjoyable to receive a healing treatment on. Often times massage therapists use a table warmer to create a toasty environment for the client. The Biomat is the ultimate massage table warmer, because the form of heat is safer than a regular AC current heating blanket (the Biomat controller converts AC current to DC current) and in addition to simply heating the body, it is delivering far infrared, negative ions, and the effects of amethyst crystals.

Yes, the far infrared heat is very effective at warming up the major muscle groups and relaxing muscle spasms and minor pains before treatment.  This makes it perfect for preparing the body for deep bodywork, adjustments, and exercise. It is also possible to do your treatment on the Biomat on the lower green settings for a less stimulating effect.   

Yes, you can adjust the heat between gentle and subtle to a deep sauna-like heat by the use of the controller. Most sessions are done on the temperatures ranging from 95 degrees to 112 degrees. For deeper healing sessions, such as in the case of severe pain, you may want to increase the temperature into the orange, which goes up to 140 degrees. The highest setting creates a sauna effect which produces a very deep sweat.

The length of a biomat session depends on a few factors. On the lower settings, people can safely lie on the mat for up to several hours, but if you are doing a higher temperature treatment, limit it to one hour. To be on the safe side, always start the client on the lower green settings for a Biomat session or two before starting them on higher temperatures.

Amethyst has been found in research to be more effective than jade in projecting the far infrared rays deeper into the body, so the benefits are more far reaching. Amethyst also produces its own Far Infrared Rays. Amethyst has been deemed as “nature’s tranquilizer” by many health practitioners because of its effectiveness in relaxing the entire body.

The Amethyst Effect was scientifically demonstrated through spectral analysis demonstrating a change in Infrared light when refracted through amethyst crystals. Scientists experimented passing (FIR) through a variety of substances, including various gems, glasses, and plastics. Amethyst was found to be the only substance which clearly changed the spectrum of Infrared light. Wave forms mimicked patterns similar to the human voice, according to scientists. While no theory has been proposed regarding the Amethyst Effect, scientists hypothesize that infrared light which is passed through the amethyst releases over 20 million years of information which is made available to the human body for healing purposes.

The field of Far Infrared Crystallography explains this effect in further detail . Far Infrared Rays refracted through amethyst crystals organize the (FIR) into geometrical patterns with higher bio-compatibility.
