Compared to a Regular Sauna (or steam room)
The Far-InfraRed sauna provides a more comfortable and relaxing
experience with a wider array of therapeutic benefits compared
to a regular sauna or steam room. Some of the advantages include:
- 40% Cooler Temperatures (110-130F in Far-InfraRed sauna vs. 180-210F in a regular sauna)
- Easy Breathing!
- Gentle Soothing Heat
- Deeper Heat Penetration (2" vs. 2mm)
- 2-3 X More Sweat!
- Non-Fatiguing
Burn Calories... In response to the
warming effect of Far-InfraRed, heart rate, cardiac output and
metabolic rate increase. These reactions provide a ‘passive
exercise’ effect, which amazingly, can burn up to 600 calories
in 30 minutes. Far-InfraRed has been researched by NASA and
determined to be an ideal way to maintain astronauts’
cardiovascular fitness during space flights.
Detoxification… Modern day environmental
toxins often become trapped within our bodies. Far-InfraRed
energy has the ability to mobilize these tissue bound toxins,
which are then expelled in our sweat. Our tissues absorb Far-InfraRed
energy up to a depth of 2” thus, the sauna releases toxins from
throughout our body. Contaminants, including mercury, lead,
pesticide residues, solvents and by-products of fossil fuel
combustion, are expelled through the skin thus, bypassing the
liver and kidneys. Avoiding placing a toxic burden on one’s
liver and kidneys is a major advantage of sweat detoxification.
Pain Relief… Far-InfraRed has been
used throughout Europe and Asia to treat a wide array of muscular-
skeletal ailments. Conditions such as arthritis, bursitis,
Fibromyalgia, backache, sprains and strains often benefit from
this deeply penetrating heat. Far-InfraRed stimulates cardio
output and causes blood vessels to dilate. The enhanced blood
flow brings pain relief and healing to muscles and other soft
tissue.
Strengthen Immune System… The famous
Greek physician, Parmenides, stated: “Give me the power to
create fever and I shall cure any disease.” An artificial fever
is created in the sauna as the Far-InfraRed deeply warms our
bodies and aids our immune system. This is a relaxing and
effective way to “nip a cold or flu in the bud”!
Skin Care… The sauna is often
helpful in the treatment of acne, psoriasis and eczema. Skin
is left soft and smooth with improved tone and elasticity as
the profuse sweating experienced with Far-InfraRed deeply
cleanses the pores.
