whole-body heat exposure supports left ventricular diastolic function in heart failure studies
Thermal therapy improved left ventricular diastolic function in patients with congestive heart failure as assessed by tissue Doppler echocardiography.
What this means for you
Diastolic function is how well your heart relaxes and fills between beats — a key part of overall cardiovascular efficiency. Research suggests that controlled heat exposure may support this relaxation response, which is linked to better circulation, less fatigue, and improved day-to-day energy levels.
The published research
Thermal vasodilation using a portable infrared thermal blanket in decompensated heart failure.
