Returning Energy Flow with the Biomat

Acupuncture and the Amethyst Biomat

Returning Energy Flow with the Biomat

Acupuncture is a complementary medical treatment used in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). Increasingly, people are turning to the practice looking for a non-pharmaceutical approach.
Acceptance of the practice continues to grow, as an increasing number of institutions recognize acupuncture as an effective form of health care. Acupuncture is now covered by many insurance policies, and doctors are eager to find a drug-free alternative to pain management in light of the dangers of opioids, and the opioid crisis in the United States. The National Institutes of Health (NIH), an agency within the U.S. Department of Health, recognizes acupuncture as an effective treatment for pain and an adjunct treatment for addiction, stroke rehabilitation, headache, carpal tunnel syndrome, and other conditions (1). The World Health Organization (WHO), an agency within the United Nations issued a report listing 28 diseases, symptoms and conditions for which acupuncture has been proven effective (2). The American Medical Association Journal of Internal Medicine (JAMA) concluded acupuncture as an effective means for reducing chronic pain with few side effects (3).
What is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medical practice in which trained practitioners stimulate specific points on the body to relieve pain or treat a health condition. The practice involves using very thin needles placed along “meridian points” to remove blockages, re-balancing the energy flow throughout the body. Imagine the inside of your body as a network of roads. When the system is clear, everything will function normally. However, when there is an accident, the cars will begin to back up, causing traffic. Our body expresses this traffic as pain or dysfunction. An acupuncturist will stimulate certain points on the body to divert the traffic and remove the accident, thus restoring normal flow.
The Science Behind Acupuncture
Acupuncture stimulates the body’s natural pain relieving and self-healing mechanisms. Exactly how this works is still being understood. Research has demonstrated the procedure can cause multiple biological responses by sensory neurons which then have a physiological effect on the brain and body. When an acupressure point is stimulated, the nervous system releases chemicals in the muscles, spinal cord and brain. These chemicals assuage pain, or they will trigger the release of other chemicals which influences the body’s own natural healing system.

How the Biomat helps
In acupuncture, when the meridians are blocked, and the flow is stagnant, pain and other conditions begin to appear. The Biomat will assist the practitioner in returning flow, because the far-infrared heat increases circulation, relaxes muscles and reduces stiffness. Jessica Barrett, the founder of Denver Mind Body Essence, has found the Biomat aids the TCM and acupuncture she uses on patients. “[The Biomat] enhances the energy moving through the body that is created and directed with the needles. Really, it can help to enhance the results I am getting with acupuncture because the body more quickly goes into the parasympathetic state and can more easily rest and heal,” said Barrett. Kate Carter of Acupuncture with Kate has been practicing acupuncture for over 20 years. She has found her treatments work faster with the Biomat, and her clients notice the difference. “I think it relaxes them so that they are more receptive to the needles and to allowing the treatments to take hold. As stress is the cause of so many illnesses and pathologies that develop when the stress is reduced, people heal more easily and aren’t as vulnerable to “invasion” by pathogenic factors,” explained Carter. Claudette Baker, owner of Glenview Healing Arts Center says, “because the Biomat induces a deep state of relaxation and calm, stress levels reduce.” Baker was instrumental in passing legislation which allowed practitioners to be licensed in 1997. All the treatment tables at her clinic have Biomats on them. “It is a fact that stress is the mother of many imbalances and contributes to most chronic diseases, so anything that can help people interrupt the stress cycle is critical in healing illness and regaining a vibrant state of health and wellbeing,” said Baker.
How Clients Respond to Acupuncture with the Biomat
Acupuncture is safe and mostly painless. However, the thought of needles can be overwhelming to some. The gentle warmth of the Biomat helps nervous clients relax. “They love it. I find that it takes them to a much deeper level of relaxation. The far infrared heat provides soothing energy to soften tense muscles,” says Michael Vahila of Vahila Acupuncture and Massage Therapy. Diamond Executive ISA Jonathan Glass, co-founder of Healing Essence Center, finds that his clients experience a deeper and more profound sense of peace and healing when being treated on the Biomat. “I feel it adds a great deal to the treatments and patients really appreciate its added benefits. It also makes me unique as a practitioner and shows my commitment to offering the best,” said Glass. Practitioners who employ the use of the Biomat have set themselves apart from the competition. Kate advertises the Biomat as part of her treatments on her website. “My clients love the Biomat. Many say how much they look forward to coming for their treatment because they love to lie on it! Some patients have chosen me over other acupuncturists in town because of what they read or already knew about it,” said Carter.
At Acubalance Wellness Centre, Dr. Lorne Brown has had much success with the Biomat. “We have eight treatment rooms and some patients would refuse being in a room without a Biomat so we purchased more so every treatment table has one. For a few months it was a scheduling nightmare but no longer an issue now that each room is supplied with a mat,” said Brown.

"I had chronic aches and pains throughout my whole body and I was constantly exhausted; I was stuck in stress mode. Within three months of using the biomat, my aches and pains disappeared and I finally felt I that had caught up on the sleep that I had been craving. I had mental clarity. I was totally renewed, rejuvenated, and I could sustain my energy again. Now, when I jump on for 15 minutes, any imbalances or stresses in my body are resolved quickly. The biomat has truly saved my life."
Amber Leiv Monaghan, Maui, Hawaii
"I love my Biomat. I sleep on it all night. One hour at the top red and the rest of the night at one yellow. It has made HUGE changes in my health.My hands and feelt have always bothered me. Even with elevating them all night they would still be swollen every morning and would just get worse every day. Now- I wake up with my bones sticking out - like every other person. By the end of the day I may have some swelling but nothing like it used to be. I also have both hips replaced and a triple back fusion. The Biomat makes a HUGE difference in my pain level - pain free. LOVE IT."
C.L. Keswick, Va.
"Laying on the mat gave me a great deal of comfort….I feel relaxed…Walking on clouds….Amazing experience…The mat brought calm, relaxation and good feeling….I will recommend it to everyone….Try it once and you will not regret it…Thank you!"
Carmen Tomescu Vancouver, BC
"I have been suffering from chronic neck and back pain for over 3 years, after being involved in an accident with a semi. I went through 10 months of physical therapy, 3 MRI's, 4 EMG tests, 36 spinal injections, a trip to the emergency, and countless prescriptions for pain and nothing seemed to be working. I was becoming desperate and depressed until I was introduced to the Biomat. After only 2 months of using the Biomat I can now say that I am pain free. It is the only thing that has helped me not only with my pain, but with my attitude as well. I love my Biomat."
Rene McFadden
"As a researcher and promoter of quality health products, I am always searching for the most effective. Personally, I am very electro-magnetic sensitive, which limits my time and use of some wonderful products. What I found most interesting with the AMETHYST Biomat is that it seems my core resistance to electro-magnetics is becoming stronger. I can go to the grocery store, use other electrical products, sit at the computer and even on the phone much longer than before, which is a true God-send. Thank You!."
M. Arnold, MN.
I am writing this letter of testimony, to share what the Bio-Mat has done for me. Using the Bio-Mat helped to decrease body aches and other ailments like sore throat and muscle pains. I am also able to relax and sleep better at night. By sharing the Bio-Mat with my friends, it eased their body aches and pains as well. The Bio-Mat is a helpful way to relieve body ailments and I give a thoughtful thank you.
Efigenia Ventura
"My wife and I are very active an exercise regularly. I am a dentist and because of the nature of my profession, many times I have lower back or neck pain. We both look forward to the 30-40 minutes we spend on the Biomat to help alleviate aches and pains and in addition find that our energy level is rejuvenated. We highly endorse this product and recommend it to anyone who is very active or those suffering from chronic pain."

“Until I first tried the Biomat in November 2005, I relied on physical therapy and analgesics to control the pain I endured from multiple injuries I suffered over 25 years as an ironworker. I was unable to move my head from side to side without turning my upper body. Every joint in my body ached. My sister had given me the Biomat and Alkal-Life water unit to use in September 2005, but I was skeptical. She finally convinced me to try the may for my pain for a week and report to her. Each day I seemed to be getting better. I started slow and easy as she recommended and at the end of the week I was doing an hour daily on the red setting. After a few days of this, I noticed that every injury I had suffered while working iron surfaced, then gradually disappeared. I also suffer from COPD and use oxygen tanks daily. After the first week, I decided to hook up the Alkal-Life water unit. I began with an 8.5 pH. Instantly, I felt my brain clear. I guess I was getting more oxygen. I have been using the Biomat a few times a week and drinking alkaline water daily. I am now pain free ( I no longer need physical therapy and analgesics ). I have more energy. I still require oxygen occasionally when I overexert myself. I used to feel “disabled” and useless. My life is now fuller than I imagined it could ever be at my age. The Biomat and Alkal-Life Water System have greatly improved my life.”
T. Traversie of Ridgeview, SD
“I first experienced the biomat at a health expo. After 10 minutes of laying on it I was amazed that it took away my hip and knee pain that I’d been unable to find relief from after several different treatments including chiropractic and physical therapy. As a pharmacist I was really impressed that it worked so much better than anything my traditional background had led me to. My experience stuck with me so when we opened a holistic skincare and cosmetics spa, I insisted we include the biomat. Since using the biomat regularly in conjunction with drinking alkaline ionized water, I have been pleasantly surprised at the improvement. I am so happy how much better I feel and how much more energy I now have. I look forward to sharing it with as many people as I can.”
Cynthia Cisneros, RPh
"Far infrared ray emitting Biomat increases blood circulation and oxygen supply to damaged tissues (aiding reduction of joint and muscle pain or sports injuries), promotes relaxation and comfort, induces sleep and relieves as shown in this case study."

"When I developed symptoms of COVID-19, I discovered that my Biomat was an ESSENTIAL part of my self-care and recovery plan. I started having COVID-19 symptoms three days after treating a patient that turned out to be COVID-19 positive. With my underlying health conditions, I was an at-risk individual. I experienced all the symptoms, including shortness of breath and chest pain and pressure. After resting on the Biomat, my lungs would feel clearer and move more freely. I could breathe easier, as if the "stuckness" in my chest was breaking up. The warmth felt wonderful when I had chills, warming me from neck to toes, and calming my nerves. When I'd experience headaches, a rest on the Biomat would clear the pain completely. The sensations of burning chest pain and pressure would also significantly lessen, and my kidneys ached less. When I slept on the Biomat, I would sleep more deeply, and I woke with more energy. My symptoms remained mild-moderate, and I never needed to be hospitalized. I was grateful to have our Biomat." Dr. Erika Fayina's center: https://chiyucenter.com/
Dr. Erika Fayina Marie, DACM
" I am a massage therapist and my hands were beginning to hurt when I would do treatments. Sometimes they would also swell up and it would hurt to bend my fingers. The Biomat has changed that. I use the Biomat on my patient and receive healing myself. I am also overweight. The Biomat has reduced my pain, swelling and stress. Can't get much better than that!"
