Infrared waves are part of the natural light spectrum from the sun, without skin-damaging ultraviolet radiation. NASA and other space agencies have utilized infrared heating technology and it has revolutionized health and beauty products all over the world.

Infrared long waves are a form of light energy from the sun, but due to the longer wavelengths the human eye cannot see them. Infrared heating panels emit infrared waves of 10.000 nanometers, which is within the "biogenetic" range. Biogenetic infrared energy is essential and beneficial for all living things.

Infrared long waves have the properties to penetrate, refract, radiate and reflect. This is the difference between infrared heating and the common convection heating methods.
