Far Infrared Sauna

Advantage of Infrared Saunas

Unlike a traditional sauna, infrared saunas don’t heat the air around you. Instead, they use infrared lamps (that use electromagnetic radiation) to warm your body directly, easily penetrating the body tissues and allowing you to experience a more intense sweat at a lower temperature. When you enter a sauna, your skin temperature rises, your pulse rate picks up and your blood vessels become more dilated as your heart begins to pump more blood. Of course, you also begin to sweat.

Your sympathetic nervous system becomes more active in order to maintain a temperature balance in your body and your endocrine glands begin to get involved in this response. The heat can make you less perceptive to pain, more alert and even give you feelings of elation. Your muscles relax and become untense and often, pain will decrease.

Certain health conditions are not compatible with sauna or steam rooms. If you have any of the following conditions, be sure to check with your medical provider BEFORE using the sauna:

Asthma or other breathing conditions, heart disease, pregnancy, epilepsy, very high or very low blood pressure, if you are under the influence of alcohol, if you are taking stimulants, tranquilizers or other mind-altering drugs.

Regular use of far-infrared saunas reduces the risk of cardiovascular diseases and musculoskeletal disorders; It can also help mental stress, inflammation, and detoxification. Despite the health benefits known for many years, the physiological mechanisms occurring in the body during sauna sessions still remain unknown. Sauna treatments can be an effective complement to any natural treatment regime to help increase overall health. Happy Healing!
