throughout Asia for thousands of years; in fact, the actual Chinese character for acupuncture, translated literally, means “acupuncture-moxibustion.” The purpose of moxibustion, as with most forms of TCM, is to strengthen the blood, stimulate the flow of qi, and maintain general health. (para. 1) According to licensed acupuncturist Andrew Rader (2006), regarding far-infrared light, If an individual likes the warmth of the sun, one has to appreciate far-infrared light. The sun puts out electromagnetic energy that ranges from X-rays and gamma rays on one end to radio waves on the other. Visible light is in the middle, with violet on the X-ray end and red on the radio end. Just beyond visible red is infrared light. The only difference between these forms of energy is the wavelength and frequency. (para. 1). Rader (2006) continued with the difference between infrared and far infrared: Infrared light, which is experienced as heat, runs from 0.76 – 1,000 microns in wavelength. Below 1.5 microns are considered near-infrared: above 5.6 is considered far-infrared. The earth radiates infrared rays in the 7-14 micron band. Humans radiate close to nine microns of infrared heat. The army uses far-infrared binoculars to see humans at night. Since people radiate heat at this wavelength, it would make sense that we should absorb it at the same wavelength. (para. 2) Infrared or far-infrared devices come in lamps that can be positioned at specific areas of the body or in saunas that allow the whole body to be exposed. Full-Spectrum Light Therapy According to the Mayo Clinic (2013), “Light therapy is a way to treat seasonal affective disorder (SAD) by exposure to artificial light.
