Infrared saunas are an effective tool for natural healing and prevention. Infrared light has the ability to penetrate human tissue which in turn produces a host of anti-aging health benefits making infrared saunas one of the “hottest” home therapies for overall healthier living. If you want to get yourself back into balance, an infrared sauna may be the ticket to achieving your wellness goals.
The experience of an infrared sauna is similar to sunbathing, which gives you the radiant heat that is all your own.
- Infrared light is part of the sun’s invisible spectrum of light that has the ability to penetrate the human tissue.
- Infrared heat therapy uses these infrared light characteristics to heat the body directly rather than just the air.
- Unlike sunbathing, infrared heat therapy is completely healthy and safe. You can relax in an infrared sauna and it will not cause your skin to burn.
- Infrared saunas increase the body’s core temperature thus resulting in a much deeper, more detoxifying sweat from the cellular level of the skin where many toxins are housed.
- Conventional hot rock/steam heat saunas heat the air with steam, which can often be unbearably hot and will cause you to only sweat at the surface of the tissue. Steam also makes the air difficult to breathe.
- An infrared sauna uses soothing dry infrared heat that is well ventilated and extremely comfortable and relaxing.
- Infrared heat therapy has also been shown to assist with weight loss, pain relief, improved circulation and skin rejuvenation.
