Abstract
A far infrared heating methods to facilitate a user receiving continued comfortable thermal stimulation. The far infrared heating method, are provided with a temperature sensor for attachment to the object to be heated, and when the temperature detected by the temperature sensor has reached a predetermined maximum temperature, the radiation from the far infrared radiator is stopped. Furthermore, the user can switch to a timer control mechanism which causes the far infrared radiator to radiate intermittently during a predetermined time cycles.
