Furthermore, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports the “percentage of adults with back pain increased with age from 28.4% for those aged 18-29 and 35.2% for those aged 30-44 to 44.3% for those aged 45-65 and 45.6% for those aged 65 and over.”
The statistics don’t end there. Chronic pain caused by arthritis and severe joint pain is an ongoing problem in the U.S. The CDC states that “one in four adults with arthritis—15 million people—report experiencing severe joint pain related to arthritis. Additionally, nearly half of adults with arthritis have persistent pain.”
Knowing that lower back pain is a struggle for people across the globe, Jacuzzi® decided to focus solely on the lower back of the FX therapy seat. The application of Near Infrared (NIR) to the lower back muscles promotes healing with consistent use of the therapy.
In the Jacuzzi® J-LX Collection, for example, the rejuvenating powers of Infrared are combined with the regenerative qualities of Red Light therapy. They work together deep beneath the skin’s surface to relieve pain, improve range of motion.
Imagine starting Infrared and Red Light therapy now and avoiding becoming a statistic — all while enjoying euphoric hydrotherapy like no other. That in itself is a key benefit, not to mention this experience doesn’t require exhausting trips to the gym, or awkwardly hanging upside down on inversion equipment to try to relieve pain.
Does Infrared therapy work?
The short answer is yes. The Jacuzzi® J-LX® Collection’s patented design is engineered with full-spectrum light therapy with Infrared Light wavelength of 850nm and Red Light wavelength of 660nm. It is designed to offer full-body benefits that soothe, relax and rejuvenate.
How does Infrared therapy work?
In the Jacuzzi® J-LX® Collection, Near Infrared waves are used to penetrate below the skin into the deeper muscle tissue specifically in the lower back area. You can select the IR and Red Light therapy session from the topside control and it will run for a 20-minute cycle. Its integration into the Jacuzzi® SmartTub® System and app allows you to keep track of your IR and Red Light therapy sessions.
Is Infrared and Red Light therapy safe?
You can be confident in using Infrared and Red Light therapy to enhance your relaxation, knowing this technology is founded in scientific research. The Infrared and Red Light technology used in Jacuzzi® hot tubs and other wellness products deliver preprogrammed therapy which takes the guesswork out of treatment. To ensure safety, Jacuzzi® has tested this product to the IEC 62471 Photobiological Safety Standard in both a wet and dry application.
It cannot be used too much. Because its integrated design works in tandem with hydrotherapy, it’s easy and stress-free to use — all you have to do is relax and enjoy full-body rejuvenation and regeneration.
