Do you enjoy visiting the sauna? How relaxing is it on a scale of one to ten? Can infrared saunas provide real health benefits and how exactly? Good questions!
- have poor energy levels
- suffering from toxic overload
- want to shed a little weight? experience daily aches and pains in your muscles
- your skin is dry, rough and in need of restoration
These are only some of the incredible benefits that full spectrum infrared saunas can provide you. Infrared technology is a concentrated version of the sun’s spectrum, and it has the ability to penetrate human tissue to produce a host of health benefits through heating the body.
If you get sick what is your body’s first response? The answer: to raise your core temperature. A fever is how our body’s combat illness to remove the toxins that are making us sick. Because far infrared sauna therapy heats the body directly rather than simply warming the air, it raises the core body temperature by 3 degrees and produces a deep, detoxifying sweat at the cellular level, where most toxins reside. Did you know that you were cleansing your body while relaxing in the sauna?
Here are more great ways full spectrum infrared saunas can be used to enhance your health:
1. Detox:
Sweating is the body’s safe and natural way to heal & stay healthy. Far infrared sauna use causes a rise in core temperature resulting in a deep, detoxifying sweat at the cellular level, where toxins reside.
2. Relax:
Infrared is a gentle, soothing and therapeutic heat that promotes relaxation and improved sleep.
3. Lower Blood Pressure:
Far infrared saunas induce a deep sweat to make the heart pump faster, which in turn increases blood flow, lowers blood pressure and helps circulation. Scientific evidence shows using a far infrared sauna a couple times a week can lower blood pressure.
4. Rejuvenate Skin:
Near infrared saunas provide the most effective wavelength for healing the epidermis and dermis layers of the skin, stimulating collagen production to reduce wrinkles and improve overall skin tone.
5. Cell Health:
Near infrared sauna therapy stimulates the circulatory system and more fully oxygenate the body’s cells. Better blood circulation means more toxins flow from the cellular level to the skin’s surface to improve cell health, aid in muscle recovery and strengthen the immune system.
6. Weight Loss:
Studies have shown that an infrared sauna therapy session can burn upwards of 600 calories while you relax! As the body works to cool itself, there is a substantial increase in heart rate, cardiac output and metabolic rate, causing the body to burn more calories.
Knowing all this, will you be using saunas more often?
