⚠️ Why FIR Should Be Avoided During Pregnancy
- Body Temperature Regulation
FIR increases core body temperature gently, but during pregnancy, overheating (hyperthermia) can affect both mother and baby, especially in the early stages of development. - Circulatory Changes
Pregnancy already increases blood volume and heart rate.
The extra dilation of blood vessels from FIR may cause dizziness, low blood pressure, or dehydration, which are best avoided. - Lack of Clinical Data
Although FIR is natural and non-invasive, there is not enough medical research confirming its safety for expectant mothers.
Reputable wellness centers and medical professionals generally recommend pausing FIR therapy until after delivery.
🌿 After Pregnancy — A Safe Time to Begin
After childbirth (and with your doctor’s approval), FIR therapy can be a gentle way to:
- Support postpartum recovery and circulation
- Help with muscle relaxation and back tension
- Improve sleep quality and mood
- Encourage natural detoxification and skin tone recovery
