Far Infrared Ray Therapy for Athletes

Scottsdale, Arizona (June 1, 2010) - Mark de Rosa, San Francisco Giant’s Left Field Second Base Player has been benched and unable to join the team in the game since May 9, 2010 because of the nerve inflammation in his surgically repaired wrist.  The injury significantly affected the 35-year-old athlete’s performance in the field, with his average score dropping from 267 points to 194.  He had a cortisone shot last May 12, 2010, hoping that it would improve his condition so he can start playing for his team again soon.   “Sometimes I feel like I’ve got loose change at the bottom of by batting glove,” he said.  He is in dire need of an effective form of wrist therapy so he can be back on top of his game for the sake of his team and loyal fans. 

It is common for baseball players to suffer from wrist injuries because of the repetitive wrist movement when hitting the ball with a heavy bat, and there are several treatment options depending on the severity of the symptoms.  Initial pain management modalities include rest and the immobilization of the wrist in a splint.  Patients whose occupation aggravates the symptoms should modify their activities. To help ease wrist ache and discomfort, Far Infrared Ray heat therapy wraps are effective in alleviating pain and delivering soothing warmth and relief to the wrist. Unlike conventional forms of heat therapy that only heats up the skin surface, Far Infrared Rays are produced by the sun and can penetrate up to 2 inches into the muscles and bones.  This deep penetrating heat treats the pain from its source. 

FIRheat, the leading innovator of Far Infrared Ray Technology, offers Rechargeable and Safe Low Voltage wrist wraps that are adjustable for maximum support and comfortable fit.  With these wraps, therapy need not be done in a hospital or clinic.  The Safe Low Voltage Plug-in series is perfect for home and office use while the Rechargeable series is designed for people with a dynamic lifestyle. 

The use of FIRheat wrist pain therapy wraps especially by baseball players and athletes is highly recommended because it eases the tension in the area by improving the flow of oxygenated blood.  Athletes such as Mark de Rosa can greatly benefit from this non-pharmaceutical and non-invasive treatment because it is their ticket to get back on top of their game.
