最近數年來，科學進步神速，日新月異。因此現代人面對著生活的忙碌與工作的壓力，很容易而忽略自身的健康。
本論文主要是探討人體經由遠紅外線照射，改善血液循環、促進新陳代謝、增強抵抗力與細胞的活絡，提高人體免疫機能，提昇自癒能力。並使用良導絡測定儀來評估，探討人體健康改善情形。
在台灣，年齡超過四十歲以上的人當中，約有百分之二十罹患高血壓，也就是說，每五人就有一人高血壓，而且隨著年齡的增加，患者比例也越來越高。根據民國九十年衛生署統計，高血壓高居第十大死亡原因，一年中奪走兩千六百多條性命，如果再加上併發症─分居第二、三、七大死因的腦血管疾病、心臟病與腎臟病，更對患者的生命造成嚴重的威脅。
本論文並以高血壓患者做為研究對象，探討遠紅外線照射後，其健康改善狀況，以期能對高血壓患者有些許助益，對社會有所貢獻。

Scientific progress and advancements have changed quickly with each passing day for the past few years. As modern people are confronted with a busy life and pressure from work, personal health has always been ignored.
This thesis mainly explores the improvement in blood circulation, promotion of metabolism, increase in resistance against diseases, revival of cells, reinforcement of immunity and boosting of self-healing ability in human bodies through radiation of far-infrared rays. Measurement of Ryodoraku is used to evaluate the improvement in human health.
In Taiwan, 20% of the population over forty years old has high blood pressure; i.e., one in every five people suffers from high blood pressure and the proportion becomes greater as the age increases. According to the statistics of the Department of Health in 2001, hypertension was the tenth cause of death and more than 2,600 people died of it in one year. If added with its complications, cerebrovascular diseases, heart diseases and kidney diseases that accounted for the second, third and seventh causes of death, an even more severe threat is imposed on lives of patients.
The object of study is focused on the patients with high blood pressure in this paper. Improvement in health of these sufferers of hypertension after receiving treatment of far-infrared rays is explored for an understanding of its effect, so that certain beneficial contribution may be made to the society.
