Infrared Sauna

What is an infrared sauna?

Far infrared saunas are quite similar to traditional saunas, but instead of using moist heat, they use dry heat that warms the body in the same manner as natural sunlight.

Why use an infrared sauna?

Our body is inundated daily with many chemicals, such as pesticides, fragrances, synthetic clothing and smog, just to name a few. The skin can eliminate approximately 30% of the body’s wastes through sweating. Using an infrared sauna on a regular basis can facilitate this process and help detoxify the body.

What are the benefits of using an infrared sauna?

• Detoxifies the body Improves circulation
• Improves heart, liver and kidney function Lowers blood pressure
• Improves tone and texture of skin Speeds recovery from injuries
• Enhances the immune system Reduces stress
• Increases relaxation and much more….
  

What makes far infrared saunas different from traditional saunas?

Infrared saunas tend to be safer and more sanitary than traditional saunas...
Traditional saunas use moist heat and temperatures that can reach as high as 150 to 200 degrees F, while the infrared saunas use dry heat with an average temperature of 100 to 140 degrees F. These lower temperatures are much more tolerable and allow users to stay longer. Dry heat is also easier to breathe in than moist heat, especially for those with breathing difficulties. Last but not least, moist heat tends to be a great environment for bacterial growth which can potentially be inhaled by users, while dry heat essentially nullifies this potential risk.

Infrared red saunas have greater detoxification capabilities than traditional saunas...
Even with lower temperatures, the heat created by far infrared saunas penetrates the skin deeper than traditional saunas. This deeper penetration allows more blood circulation to the skin, which in turn allows better oxygenation of tissues, better elimination of toxins and wastes, and ultimately nourishes damaged tissues. The deep heat penetration is also the reason why sauna users tend to sweat sooner and in greater quantity when using far infrared saunas versus traditional saunas.
