Boldstar Infrared Services Helps Dr. Ho With Product Research
Boldstar Infrared Services applies thermography knowledge and inspection to provide evidence of medical treatment product effectiveness.
Boldstar Infrared Services answered the call from the office of infomercial and medical ailment guru Dr. Ho. Famous for relieving pain and discomfort of professional athletes and citizens alike, Dr. Michael Ho can be seen promoting his massage therapy device on his cable television infomercial. Dr. Ho's massage therapy machine consists of a small powerful unit that delivers controlled electrical currents to pads applied to stiff or aching areas of the body. The result is a relaxing massage that works muscles and gets the blood flowing in the applied area relieving pain and discomfort.
Dr. Ho's researchers and infomercial producers wanted to provide visual proof of his product's effectiveness to the audience of their next infomercial. A short search on the internet landed them at www.boldstarinfrared.com. A phone call later and Boldstar Infrared Services was conducting infrared thermographic research on Dr. Ho himself. Infrared images were taken of Dr. Ho's shoulder area before, during and after using his massage therapy device. Experimentation with colour palettes and temperature ranges were conducted to obtain the best image quality and temperature resolution. The results clearly indicate that after a short 5 to 10 minute use, Dr. Ho's massage therapy device increases blood flow and temperature to the applied area. An average temperature rise of 1 degree Celsius was noted on the skin surface at the treated area. The Boldstar infrared images and video footage will help to provide visually effective product promotion. Look for Boldstar Infrared Services to have a cameo appearance in Dr. Ho's next infomercial.
