Background: FIR therapy is used in various medical settings to treat diseases associated with inflammation and edema. Unlike conventional FIR lamp therapy, this study investigated how body fluids change depending on the intensity and duration of FIR irradiation to the whole body. Method: Subjects in group A (n = 27) were exposed to FIR emitted from a loess bio-ball mat set at 40 °C for 30 min, and subjects in group B (n = 27) were exposed to FIR emitted from a loess bio-ball mat set at 30 °C for 7 h during sleep. Changes in bioimpedance parameters and fluid-related values were measured using a body fluid analyzer before and after exposure to FIR. Results: Changes in bioimpedance parameters associated with inflammatory fluids were quantitatively confirmed. In group A, there was a minimal change in fluid-related measurements. However, significant changes in bioimpedance parameters associated with inflammatory fluids were observed in group B exposure to FIR for 7 h during sleep. Conclusions: FIR emitted from loess bio-balls activates biological tissues and lymphatic circulation, gradually reducing the levels of inflammatory fluids over time.
