A member asked:
Do far infrared gloves for raynauds actually work? how does infrared tech work for warming the hands?

Heat: Infrared is just the physics term for "heat". "far infrared gloves" are a gimmick - just use the most comfortable regular gloves you can find. You'll like them more, they'll cost less, and they'll work just as well.
