Benefits of Far Infrared (FIR) Saunas

During a 10-20 minute FIR sauna session, your heart rate can increase by 50-75%. The more often you use our saunas the more you will sweat eventually. This provides the same metabolic result as physical exercise, only this is passive! The increased cardiac load is equivalent to a brisk walk. There is a nominal effect on blood pressure because the heat also causes blood vessels in skin to expand to accommodate increased blood flow (vasodilatation). FIR saunas work opposite of traditional saunas that cause congestion stress. That’s why many are warned not to use traditional saunas due to the constriction of the arteries, capillaries and veins. Sometimes causing heart attacks or stroke. In fact, people that do not or cannot exercise can still receive incredible self-healing benefits for regular FIR sauna sweats because they are much safer, comfortable and cooler.

DETOXIFICATION:

Toxins such as sodium, alcohol, nicotine, cholesterol and carcinogenic heavy metals such as mercury, cadmium, lead, zinc, nickel can accumulate in the body. The body eliminates most toxins naturally by sweating, defecation and urination. FIR heat therapy (Hyperthermia) stimulates the sweat glands and organs to cleanse, purge, regenerate and detoxify themselves insticntly by strengthening the immune system by activation. Such as what your innate immune response that happens when you get the flu. The internal heat heat simply speeds up the body's natural cleansing process to fight off the infection and invaders.

PAIN RELIEF:

Heat can relieve pain by expanding blood vessels and increasing circulation. Increased circulation allows more oxygen to reach injured areas of the body and helps reduce pain and speed up the healing process. In Europe, Japan, Germany, and many other countries utilize radiant heat therapy to treat patients suffering from many forms of arthritis and diseases. The deep heating of infrared saunas help peripheral blood vessels dilate, bringing relief and healing to muscle and soft issue injuries. It has been proven effective in the treatment of sprains, neuralgia, bursitis, muscle spasms, joint stiffness and many other musculoskeletal ailments. Increased blood circulation carries off metabolic acidic waste products and delivers oxygen-rich blood to depleted muscles so they recover faster. Muscles relax most readily when tissues are warm, promoting greater flexibility and range of motion. Stiffness, aches and soreness that come with aging are reduced or can at times be totally eliminated.

WEIGHT CONTROL:

Perspiring is part of the complex thermoregulatory process (immune system) of the body that increases the heart rate, cardiac output, and metabolic rate. The process requires a large amount of energy and reduces excess moisture, salt and subcutaneous fat. Fat becomes water-soluble and the body sweats out fats and toxins.

INDUCED FEVER:

During a fever, the body heats up to eliminate viruses and foreign microbes. This rise in core body temperature has many benefits. This rise in temperature is a natural stage of the immune system's healing process and is one of the best ways to rid the body of chemicals and unwelcome visitors. The combination of heat, extra water and the immune system can weaken the hold of viruses and bacterial growth. Saunas induce an artificial fever by heating up the body but without the pains and misery of an illness. Subsequently, the body wards off invading organisms much more easily because the immune system is activated consistently by the artificial fever.
