Why Near Infrared is better than FIR and US

Man, if it helped with reducing the fat pad, that would be HUGE. And TBH, I could stand an increase in sperm also.

Oh nice, that would be great. I was just going off what OP said about not wanting to hit places that have that much cell generation

Just wanted to share a potentially fine finding for us people, living in Europe:

Irradiance seems to be on the low end (> 100mW/cm2) of what Solvay1927 recommends, but that’s honestly the best I found, especially for the money.
Re-starting my PE journey, will keep you posted if NIR works wonders for me as well. ;)

Good luck to you. Are you going to be extending only?

Are you supposed to feel heat when you’re using near infrared? Because I really don’t feel any heat.

As far as i understand NIR is not about heating up the tissue but stimulating it in a way that promotes growth. For me it does make my penis a bit more warmer and different, but its not really heated up.

Thanks. I think mine might be cheap one .

That is not necessarily a problem. As stated by the author of this thread, most NIR pads are produced in china, even the ones that are sold by western companies with 10 times markup in price.
I got the pad recommended in this thread by rocco Chinese NIR pad: Initial measurements
It was tested by the guy and as far as i understand it does produce radiation in the advertised range.

That looks exactly like the one I have. A flexible pad with square LEDs, a stretchy wrap with Velcro, and the controller dongle. Same box, even.

I had been using a screw-in IR lamp in a desk lamp holder, and a long skinny flat panel IR lamp, that I just laid on my leg or abdomen.

I could use either of the lamps for a full 30-minute pump session. However, the flexible USB wrap, when wrapped around the pump tube, is stout enough that I can only use it for ten minutes per session, or my shaft will feel sunburned. I only using on full power (level 5) since I want as much penetration as possible.

The flexible wrap never gets more than slightly warm to the touch.

Great. Thank you

Tonight I noticed good after effects after using NIR while in my hydromax pump. I didn’t get as much girth as I usually get when though I was in the pump longer then normal, normally I prefer to get a little more girth, but the good part is I felt more sensitive during sex. I think sometimes with all this PE, it’s easy to dull the nerves and for me, it makes it harder to finish. But I had great EQ tonight. Above normal sensation. I am thinking of getting a FIR in the future to have the feeling of doing my extending and pumping with more effect, but use the NIR to help heal. Hopefully I can continue to repeat tonight’s results. I just recently got it and only had a chance to use it a few times so far.

Actually I was thinking of using it for warm up and pumping, not so much extending…
But open to explore my options, honestly. :D

There’s not enough clarity for me that NIR is superior as a stand-alone solution & can replace heat entirely in a routine. I see some science and research articles, but mostly anecdotal evidence for a single person that it worked well for PE. That being said, there’s potential here, but my hypothesis is if I combine NIR with other more proven heat methods I’m more likely to get good results (as long as I don’t overdo it).

I’m going to try NIR (while I wear ADS or pump), but I don’t want to stop using traditional heat (unless this creates major risk of injury).

FIR Question:
Is it dangerous for me to wrap this FIR device around my stealthformen ADS for 20 minutes while I stretch (on maximum settings)?
(stealthformen vac hanger has a few layers of plastic/ rubber so it would keep the heating pad at least a small distance from my unit, especially towards the glans)

If I go too far with FIR, will it just hurt? (or can I somehow hurt myself without knowing it?)
e.g. can I get infrared burns & not realize it, or will I feel pain & know I should stop?

Is it safe to combine FIR/ NIR / Rice socks in the same routine / on the same day?
-e.g. 5 minute warmup with rice socks, then wrap FIR around my stealthformen ADS device, then NIR during pumping (or is that too crazy)?
-is anyone using NIR + Rice Socks or + heat lamp or combining multiple heat methods with good results?

My dude, just start using it and you will see. Too many questions, but I will help with what I can. Think of RED mainly as healing, warming up and possibly getting your stretches goals quicker. Hink just did a video on it, whatever works for you. "All Things Male No. 3 - Heat, Clamping, Edema"

That being said, there’s potential here, but my hypothesis is if I combine NIR with other more proven heat methods I’m more likely to get good results (as long as I don’t overdo it).
~~~You can’t over due it, that is fine heating like usual and then doing RED Light

I’m going to try NIR (while I wear ADS or pump), but I don’t want to stop using traditional heat (unless this creates major risk of injury).
~~~ If you stretch or hang, that would be the best time to use. Also with ADS if you wanted to?

If I go too far with FIR, will it just hurt? (or can I somehow hurt myself without knowing it?)
e.g. can I get infrared burns & not realize it, or will I feel pain & know I should stop?
~~~ I have done 25-30 min (which is recommended max) on a pad for 5 x a week for 4 months and nothing, not even a light tan. If you do get too close and feel a burning feeling, back up or lower intensity.

Is it safe to combine FIR/ NIR / Rice socks in the same routine / on the same day?
~~~ Do the warm up you always do, in time you will see that all you need is RED Light, but stick to what works for you

-e.g. 5 minute warmup with rice socks, then wrap FIR around my stealthformen ADS device, then NIR during pumping (or is that too crazy)?
~~~ I’m not a RED LIGHT during pumping guy, there are some out there. I only water pump so the water stays warm with 20 min MAX pump. So I don’t see why placing a RED LIGHT through a tube and water would help in any way, with such minimal time?

Thanks Bemorethanbig - very helpful advice. I have an old hip injury also… I’m going to see if NIR helps with that too (I was reading in the amazon reviews about a person with an old shoulder injury that didn’t heal even after years of rehab that recovered with a couple months of NIR).
