Actually, you are trying to compare two different things. The Rife is a treatment for the infections - the infrared portable mat is for detoxing. You can't really compare the two as they are used for different purposes.
Kind of like comparing a spatula and a frying pan.

I would say rather than spending the money on the infrared mat right now, do all you can to increase your detoxing in other, less expensive ways.
And rather than the Rife - unless you really believe that one modality is crucial to your healing - there are other modalities that don't cost so much that you could try first.
Just a few thoughts.
