Yes. The use of RF energy is one of today’s most advanced surgical techniques. In addition to its use in CK, RF technology is being used in prostate cancer therapy, back surgery, even cardiovascular procedures.

Exposure standards for radiofrequency energy have been developed by various organizations and countries. These standards recommend safe levels of exposure for both the general public and for workers. In the United States, the FCC has adopted and used recognized safety guidelines for evaluating RF environmental exposure since 1985.

Probably the most important use for RF energy is in providing telecommunications services. Radio and television broadcasting, cellular telephones, personal communications services (PCS), pagers, cordless telephones, business radio, radio communications for police and fire departments, amateur radio, microwave point-to-point links and satellite communications are just a few of the many telecommunications applications of RF energy.

If facet joint injections help only temporarily, RF nerve ablation may help long-term. Under X-ray guidance, a fine needle is placed over the small nerves that supply the facet joint and the tip of the needle is heated using radio-frequency energy and the joint is denervated. This procedure can help alleviate pain coming from the facet.

Eye Saver is efficient because it controls light from escaping through the top of the bulb, thereby directing more light (than a standard incandescent bulb of similar wattage) onto the work surface. (back to top) Eye Saver gives off the same amount of heat as a conventional incandescent bulb of similar wattage. (back to top)

Biological effects can result from animal or human exposure to RF energy. Biological effects that result from heating of tissue by RF energy are often referred to as "thermal" effects. It has been known for many years that exposure to very high levels of RF radiation can be harmful due to the ability of RF energy to heat biological tissue rapidly. This is the principle by which microwave ovens cook food.

Although relatively few offices or agencies within the Federal Government routinely deal with the issue of human exposure to RF fields, it is possible to obtain information and assistance on certain topics from the following federal agencies. Most of these agencies also have Internet Web sites.

Close to the eye orbit is fine, but caution should be used to prevent the product from entering the eyes. Do not use on the eyelids.

You should avoid using make-up for 2 weeks after treatment. Some women choose to get their eyelashes tinted before treatment.

Today we drill wells into the geothermal reservoirs to bring the hot water to the surface. Geologists, geochemists, drillers and engineers do a lot of exploring and testing to locate underground areas that contain this geothermal water, so we'll know where to drill geothermal production wells. Then, once the hot water and/or steam travels up the wells to the surface, they can be used to generate electricity in geothermal power plants or for energy saving non-electrical purposes.

Check out our Keeping the Warmth In and the Cold Out booklet that contains a variety of low- and no-cost tips. You'll also find tips that make more of an impact on your heating and cooling bills and which require more of an investment. We also offer Energy Depot, a suite of online software that includes a Home Energy Audit, Appliance Energy Calculator, and an Energy Library.

Health Canada issued Safety Code 6 in 1991, which specified the limits of exposure to radiofrequency fields at frequencies 10 kHz - 300 GHz. The limit for the general population for whole-body average SAR is 0.08 W/kg. Safety standards in several other countries such as the USA, United Kingdom, other European Community countries, Australia and Japan recommend very similar limits to those outlined in Safety Code 6. For more, see "Phones - Exposure Limits".

The trick is not to use too much. Eye creams and gels contain potent active ingredients to tighten skin, reduce wrinkles and prevent dark circles. Overdoing it can irritate the skin. Instead, use a blob about the size of a grain of rice for each eye. Place just under the eye socket and gently tap in to the skin with fingertips - this action will also help eliminate toxins from the eye area.

The Eye Piece Cover is the cover that attaches to the viewfinder. The eye piece cover prevents light from entering the viewfinder when shooting with your eye away from the viewfinder.

Yes, some ingredients in the TheraLife® formulas actually help to lower blood pressure and are safe for use with your current medication.

Yes. Since Eye Envy is applied externally, it is 100% safe to use on pregnant, lactating and even small kittens (over the age of 7 weeks).

Geothermal water is used around the world, even when it is not hot enough to generate electricity. Anytime geothermal water or heat are used directly, less electricity is used. Using geothermal water 'directly' conserves energy and replaces the use of polluting energy resources with clean ones. The main non-electric ways we use geothermal energy are DIRECT USES and GEOTHERMAL HEAT PUMPS.
