Technically water-filtered infrared-A (wIRA) is produced in special radiators, whose whole incoherent broad-band radiation of a 3000 Kelvin halogen bulb is passed through a cuvette, containing water, which absorbs or decreases the described undesired wavelengths within infrared [1], [2], [4], see Figure 2 (Fig. 2): an example of the resulting spectrum with visible light (VIS) and water-filtered infrared-A (wIRA) is shown in Figure 3 (Fig. 3). | |||||||||||||||

Bechterew [77], arthroses, arthritises, contusions; fibromyalgia (preferably wIRA in combination with motion, i.e. wIRA with a small amount of ergometer work) [93], regeneration after sports [78] (wIRA alone or wIRA in combination with motion), postoperative rehabilitation [89], [94], improvement of lipolysis (wIRA in combination with motion) [61]. | |||||||||||||||

Why wIRA? | |||||||||||||||

|
Water-filtered infrared-A as a special form of heat radiation with a high tissue penetration and with a low thermal load to the skin surface acts both by thermal (related to heat energy transfer) and thermic (temperature depending, with a relevant change of temperature) as well as by non-thermal (without a relevant transfer of heat energy) and non-thermic (not depending on temperature, without a relevant change of temperature) effects. wIRA produces a therapeutically usable field of heat in the tissue and increases tissue temperature, tissue oxygen partial pressure, and tissue perfusion. | |||||||||||||||

Technically water-filtered infrared-A (wIRA) is produced in special radiators, whose full spectrum of radiation of a halogen bulb is passed through a cuvette, containing water, which absorbs or decreases the described undesired wavelengths of the infrared radiation. | |||||||||||||||

A typical image of the stratum corneum after application of the fluorescein sodium containing formulation, without wIRA irradiation, is presented in Figure 6a (Fig. 6). | |||||||||||||||

|
Skin hydration (in relative (arbitrary) units) rose from 67 before wIRA to 87 after wIRA irradiation (medians) (Figure 9 (Fig. 9)). | |||||||||||||||

Thermal effects of wIRA and production of a therapeutically usable field of heat | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Technically water-filtered infrared-A (wIRA) is produced in special radiators, in which the complete incoherent radiation of a 3000-Kelvin halogen bulb passes a water containing cuvette, so that the undesired portions of radiation are absorbed or decreased [17], [18], [19], [20]. | |||||||||||||||
