What Is FIR (Far-Infrared)?

Far-Infrared Radiation (FIR) is a form of thermal energy within the infrared spectrum. It is commonly experienced as radiant heat, similar to the warmth felt from sunlight, but without ultraviolet exposure.

In therapies such as Onnetsuki, controlled far-infrared warmth is applied to the body using specialized ceramic applicators. This gentle heat can warm the surface of the skin and underlying tissues, which many individuals find relaxing and comforting.

Within traditional Japanese wellness practices, warmth has long been associated with balance and vitality. Heat-based therapies are often used to support circulation, relaxation, and overall physical comfort as part of a holistic approach to wellbeing.
