When Kim Kardashian makes a bold beauty and wellness reco, you kind of want to take note. And she’s such a big fan of Heat Healer’s Infrared Body Belt that she gifted her closest friends and family in the Poosh Kardashian-Jenner Holiday Gift Guide — so naturally, who wouldn’t want to check it out as well.
Especially as of this writing, when Heat Healer is offering a 20% off sale on top products.
Advertised as a “triple threat technology belt” that can help calm down muscles, I was curious what made this go beyond a regular heating pad. Because sure, it does give a good degree of heat — and while that’s just the start, let’s talk about that for a moment.
What Makes This The “Triple Threat”?
1. The Heat
Actually, the heat from the heating pad isn’t distributed like your basic drug store heating pad. The Heat Healer infrared belt has 44 pockets that emanate consistent infrared heat, and are filled with crystals and beads (Jade, Tourmaline, Clear Quartz, Amber, Amethyst Crystals, and Negative-Ion Producing Clay Beads).
2. Red LED Light
LED Lights are one of those buzzy phenoms in the healthcare industry right now, promising benefits like decreasing stress, anxiety, and headaches – while promoting the alignment of your circadian rhythms. All good things.
Heat Healer’s body belt contains eight LED lights and are said to help rejuvenate and cleanse skin while boosting the natural glow and recovery process.
But you also have the option of not using them if you prefer, as the control lets you choose whether to power the lights on or not.
3. Pulsed Electromagnetic Therapy
Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy (or PEMF if you go by the industry abbreviations) can complement the infrared heat to help your body’s natural recovery processes.
But how does it work?
Really simply. Just wrap the belt around the part of the body that hurts, plug it in, and it heats up quickly — you select how much heat you want and how much time with the controls. You also can choose whether or not you want to turn the LED lights on.
Final Thoughts
If you’re looking to relieve some pain from injury, or help with any post-workout relaxation or PMS’ing, this belt may help to alleviate problem areas, while offering skin-care glow ups. Some of us may have more pain and inflammation than others, but it can still help to offer some relief. And it feels nice and calming too, kinda like going to a sauna and getting your zen on. But easier to do, at home, catching up on TV or reading a book.
And bonus — because right now, there is a sale on the website for the Infrared Body Belt, as well as other products such as their Infrared Sauna Blanket, Gua Sha Lymphatic Drainage Tool (aka Body Paddle), and more.
