Thanks for your review…it was really helpful. I just got mine this afternoon and it feels wonderful. I just went up to 122 degrees though. I’ll work my way up
Part 2 See above for Part 1 Summary; science has shown that non-ionized far infrared at moderate levels are perfectly safe. It is under high prolonged exposures that cellular/dna maybe affected. But studies have contradictory conclusions on this and NO Cancer to adults has been attributed from this type of EMF exposure. More studies are needed.(7)(18) With regards to EMF levels, just be prudent. Unless you live in a Sauna, more realistic usage is short duration under safe EMF/EF levels. Regardless, responsible manufacturers try to limit EMF output by using EMF blocking devices, better materials, better heating elements like carbon fiber or silicone wiring, better wire shielding, less out-gassing woods/fibers, etc. However there are some precautions with pregnant woman, pace makers,defibulator, hypertension, etc so best to consult with your doctor before using these infrared devices. I hope my research into EMF exposure is helpful in putting at ease the misinformation out there regarding infrared sauna safety. Just because slightly elevated EMF is out there does not automatically mean that the device is dangerous. Most studies regarding EMF affects to human body results are inconclusive and often contradictory findings to other studies. Since the sauna blanket overall EMF are well below levels to that of the science community guidelines, at this time, if you have no medical issues, the sauna blanket, in my mind, is safe enough for me. Your milage may vary. Read these articles and educate yourself and then decide for yourself.

This is helpful. I bought an EMF meter and it was giving off strong readings when making contact with the Bio Remedy. I've observed this specially around the feet.
Yes, that is where the power supply is. You would need readings exceeding 270 as the mininum danger levels long term. Unless you spend all day in the sauna nothing to worry about, the 30-40mG is so far below the 270mG-800mG the ICNIRP deem as unsafe. Be more concerned if you have health issues than EMF. @@KennethDorado
You have to click on the product detail arrow on the right side. Regular 71x31 inches 55inch circumference. Large is 76x36 inches Going larger is fine since someone smaller can have extra room in a large while the larger person would not fit comfortable in a regular. You can call or chat with someone at LifePro.
I bought a large simply because tight spaces make me feel claustrophobic and I wanted to be able to move freely. It may be overkill but I’m glad I went in that direction.

This was very informative. I appreciated the info on EMF.
Thanks for this. Very helpful ❤

my husband is 5'11"... weight 194.. would he take the regular or large? I can't find dimensions on site.

Is this infrared? And heating is all the body or only in select part? Thanks
This is far infrared. It heats all over the body as the heating elements runs throughout both the bottom and top sections.
Do you still use the blanket?
It is used several times a week by my wife. We also have a tent sauna that she switches off everyother day. I use it if I overworked myself.
