Comparative Technologies
How KYMIRA Stacks Up
KYMIRA’s infrared technology isn’t the only tool athletes use—but it’s one of the few that works passively, continuously, and biologically. Here’s how it compares:
Far-Infrared vs. Red Light Therapy
| Factor | KYMIRA Far-Infrared | Red-Light Therapy |
|---|---|---|
| Wavelength | 6–14 microns | 600–1000 nanometers |
| Energy Source | Body heat (passive) | LED device (active) |
| Target | Blood vessels, water | Mitochondria |
| Penetration Depth | 2–3cm | 5–10mm |
| Duration | Continuous (24/7 wear) | Sessions (10–20 min) |
| Convenience | Wearable | Stationary device |
| Cost | One-time purchase | Device + time investment |
Both are valid. KYMIRA works passively and continuously - ideal for athletes who want results without routine disruption.

Far-Infrared vs. Compression Therapy
| Factor | KYMIRA Far-Infrared | Compression Alone |
|---|---|---|
| Mechanism | Vasodilation via NO release | Mechanical pressure |
| Oxygen Delivery | +20% (measured) | Modest increase |
| Cellular Energy | Enhanced (ATP production) | No direct effect |
| Comfort | Minimal pressure | High pressure required |
| Duration | Works at rest and activity | Primarily during activity |
KYMIRA combines both: compression for mechanical benefits, infrared for biological stimulation.
