TheraBulb^® Introduces Industry First 300 Watt Near Infrared Incandescent Bulb

LEESBURG, Va.  February 18, 2020:  TheraBulb^® is setting the standard once again with its newest product release: a 300W incandescent bulb that outperforms the competition in near infrared and red light output as well as durability. Powerful and durable, the Near Infrared Bulb - 300 Watt has earned the same safety and purity marks that have made consumers trust the TheraBulb^® brand.

The TheraBulb^® 300W is a game-changer for consumers using 150W and 250W infrared bulbs. Rather than needing to purchase a second bulb when more coverage or deeper tissue penetration is needed, now they can get that same output from a single bulb. When compared with the 150W bulb, TheraBulb^® is offering twice the power at the same price! For those who want more infrared and red light than 250 watt bulbs the TheraBulb^® 300W delivers that extra boost. Best of all, the 300W bulb is still compatible with clamp lamps available on Amazon and hardware stores.

Is Bigger Always Better?

In the case of infrared light therapy, the answer is often “yes”. Studies show that the results of such therapy are often dependent on how deeply the light can penetrate into the treatment area.^[1,2] As bulbs are moved closer to the skin to gain better penetration, their coverage area becomes smaller, like walking toward a wall with a flashlight in your hand.

In such cases, the user is forced to compromise or purchase additional bulbs and lamps. The new TheraBulb^® Near Infrared-Bulb - 300 Watt helps to resolve such issues by providing more power output in a single, affordable unit with a tungsten filament designed specifically to maximize near infrared and red light emissions and 20% thicker glass to resist breakage An impressive 75% of the TheraBulb^® 300W total output registered in the infrared range during lab tests, nearly double the percentage of previous TheraBulb^® designs. The bulbs peak output, at 700nm, made up nearly a quarter of the total energy output. The bulb’s red light scores were equally robust, with the 300W version delivering 1.3 times the red light concentration of competing products.

Why Infrared Light Therapy?

Physicians, researchers, and end consumers are using infrared therapy to treat a wide range of symptoms. Numerous studies have been conducted to test the efficacy of near-infrared light in treating joint pain, joint inflammation, muscle pain, spine injuries, nerve pain, and sports injuries.

Many TheraBulb^® customers use their products to treat chronic or acute pain, such as non-specific lower back pain or muscle sprains. Others use their TheraBulb^® infrared bulbs and lamps to treat arthritis, skin conditions, increase collagen production and promote wound healing, or to help reverse the visible effects of UV skin damage.^[1]

Near-infrared light therapy uses precise wavelengths of light that are delivered to injury sites to speed cellular regeneration and improve the healing process. Researchers have found that infrared light improves the circulation of blood in the body, improving the flow of oxygen and nutrients to the cells, stimulating the regeneration and repair of injured tissues, and reducing pain and inflammation.^[2,3]
