CEBU, Philippines - Nuga Best of Nuga Medical Co. Ltd., which started operation in Cebu in 2006, has recently launched another fine product – an alternative medical device employing the use of infrared rays to promote overall wellness.
The Nuga Best NM-5000P is an upgrade to its already fine bed products that have considerably helped quite a number of clients in maintaining good health through heat stimulators.
This product, launched last March 13 here in the city, has an internal projector in an ergonomic design. As the internal projector is designed for rotation in a certain angle to the front, back, left and right, the acupressure effects are increased with the separately built-in ceramic for the cervical vertebrae because of the equal distribution of acupressure load to the whole body.
It has an external projector in convenient design. This writer used the external projector on her abdomen (having experienced a case of amennorhea) and finds the handle convenient to grip with just one hand.
The product also comes in mint green color which helps in psychological stability, so it really is a plus to be lying on a product that promises relaxation.
Its main mat and subsidiary mat are horizontal, which can be used in a more convenient way with the attachment of a handle for three-step adjustments, according to the client’s desired angle – 10, 20, or 30 degrees.
Meanwhile, its remote controller holder can be rotated 360 degrees. Nuga Medical promises value upgrade to every product, so this remote controller is made in such a way that the size can be seen at a glance with buttons which can be easily used with less wear due to the use of special materials, and the button descriptions cannot be easily erased.
And here’s the very good news about upgrades: While old Nuga bed products utilized jadestones, it now moves on to utilize tourmanium.
Developed by Nuga Medical, it is said to be the first of its kind in the world. Tourmanium ceramics is manufactured through the processing of tourmaline, natural germanium, volcanic rock and elvan into microparticulates. This is followed by vacuum drying, screening the powder, formation of therapeutic stone, and sintering or burning at higher than 1,300 degrees Celsius with the most advanced Korean technology. It is characterized by enamel-free polishing to achieve best quality.
When the ceramic is electrically charged, deep infrared rays are emitted. The mineral tourmaline inside the ceramic also emits negative ions. Such properties help in the treatment of diseases and pains, while strengthening the immune system, thereby leading to good health and sense of wellbeing.
This writer also tried on a tourmanium heating belt which gives tingling, but tolerable, sensations that also slightly give a kick at the lumbar zone. It was learned that the therapeutic purpose of tourmanium is to promote blood circulation, improve metabolism, achieve normal blood sugar and strong immune system. All of which lead to long-lasting healing benefits.
