Far infrared Therapy For Arthritis Pain, Type 2 Diabetes, Fibromyalgia & Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Relieve Diabetic Foot Problems The Gentle Way

Did You Know Diabetes is Estimated to Affect
Around 1 Million Australians?

In fact, half of all diabetic sufferers may not even be aware that they have diabetes.  
Type 2 diabetes may cause damage to micro-circulation which can affect the
extremities of your lower leg leading to loss of sensation, called neuropathy, in your
feet. Neuropathic pain causes sensations of burning discomfort and a reduced ability
to ward off infection.


Foot ulceration in diabetics can be the result of three particular pathological changes.  
These pathological changes are peripheral sensory neuropathy, peripheral motor
neuropathy and autonomic neuropathy.  Peripheral vascular disease can also lead to
foot ulceration in diabetic sufferers.

Peripheral sensory neuropathy causes decreased sensitivity to pain and
temperature.  Diabetics may be unable to feel injury, discomfort or pressure because
their sensation is reduced. This can lead to foot damage and severe ulceration if left
untreated.
   
Peripheral motor neuropathy can change the shape of the foot due to muscle
atrophy. Far infrared therapy socks assist ease diabetic foot problems by helping to
increase circulation for reduced pain and burning. Diabetic claw or hammer toes may
also lead to ulceration.

Autonomic Neuropathy may cause decreased perspiration leading to dry and
cracked skin on the feet which can cause bacterial infections.  

In fact, statistics show foot ulcers are the leading cause of lower limb amputations in
diabetics.  About 15% of diabetics will suffer with foot ulcers. Diabetic socks with far
infrared treatment are naturally anti-bacterial to help prevent painful infections and
foot ulceration.


What Is The Best Natural Treatment For Diabetic Foot Pain?
Far infrared therapy is a safe and effective, non-pharmaceutical treatment for diabetic
foot problems. FIR thermal socks improve circulation to ease the symptoms of nerve
damage and neuropathy which may lead to ulceration and skin infections.

The main objectives for effective care for diabetic foot ulcers are:
Promote good blood supply
Redistribute pressure
Prevent unpleasant foot odour
Minimise the risk of bacterial infection
Improve overall foot health for better comfort
Protect delicate and fragile skin from rubbing


Diabetic Socks For Improved Foot Health
Diabetic ulcers can be hard to treat effectively, with the potential for infection which
can lead to more serious complications, including amputation.

Far infrared diabetic socks are a popular choice for diabetic foot problems as their
naturally anti-bacterial action is effective to help create healthy conditions for wound
healing and provide protection from uncomfortable pressure, friction and infection.
