Q. How does iRelief 2 affect microcircualtion?
A.  In Traditional Chinese Medicine, blocked meridian flow or impeded microcirculation will manifest into pain or illness. The protons in the body fluids and tissues cells all vibrate in random motions, microcircualtion becomes weak and slow. This is poor microcirculation, the delivery of nutrients and removal of metabolic wastes are conducted inefficiently. iRelief 2 simulates the acupoints by combining Pico Technology with electric current to achieve the needle free acupuncture. Therefore, the vibration of protons of body fluids and tissue cells will be aligned; and the body microcirculation and metabolism become faster and stronger. The re-established meridian flow will result in a good microciruation. The body’s innate healing potential is maximized to optimize the recovery and ultimately restore health.

 

Q. Is it normal if I feel more painful in the pain area after applying iRelief 2?
A.  The thoery of Chinese medicine says: 'Wherever there is blockage of Qi, there is pain. When Qi flows properly, pain disappears.' An illness is considered in 5 stages based on the severity - from initial stage of “itch”, and move progressively to “ache”, “pain”, “numbness” and “lack of feeling” in the worst situation. During the recovery process, iRelief helps to strengthen microcirculation to reverse the illness from the worst situation back to early healthy condition. This is a natural response during the recovery period that some users might experience.
