Tourmaline emits far infrared radiation in the 4-15 micron wavelength. Electromagnetic radiation in the far infrared range is able to boost the immune system and promote detoxification. In fact, far infrared therapy is widely used in Japan by Kikohshi, people who heal by the laying of hands.
Tourmaline is a powerful ally when your body is in need of detoxification. The far infrared rays created by tourmaline actually produce the same resonance in the body that is normally found in water. This form of resonance absorption helps relieve stress, increase alertness, stimulate circulation, and boost the immune system. Here are just a few of the powerful effects from tourmaline.
Tourmaline stone and germanium stone:
Tourmaline and germanium stones are similar stones that can emit far infrared rays and negative ions. This energy may offer many health benefits.
Far infrared rays are invisible waves of energy. They’re able to penetrate all layers of the human body and reach the inner-most regions of tissues, muscles and bone. Through this, far infrared rays and negative ions gently soothe, stimulate and detoxify the body and mind. Negative ions are also incredibly important in determining mood. Michael Terman, PhD, of Columbia University in New York, has researched negative ions and reports, “The action of the pounding surf creates negative air ions and we also see it immediately after spring thunderstorms when people report lightened moods. Additional research has shown that mood disorders may be improved just as well through negative ion generators as antidepressants — but without the negative side effects. Why? Because these ions promote oxygenation to the brain and regeneration of the blood.
Negative ions Functions,
1. Improve myocardial function: negative ions have obvious hypotensive effect, which can improve myocardial function and increase
myocardial vitality.
2. Improve sleep: after the action of negative ions, people's spirit can be invigorated, work efficiency can be improved, and
sleep can also be improved, which has obvious calming and sleep promoting effects.
3. Promote metabolism: negative ions can activate various enzymes in the body and promote metabolism.
4. Enhance disease resistance: negative ions can change the reactivity of the body, activate the function of reticular endothelial
system, and enhance the body immunity
