Benefits of Increased Blood Flow

During Sauna use your body temperature rises, causing increased blood flow. This reduces the impact of problems such as High Blood Pressure, Heart Disease, Bad Circulation, Muscle Injuries and Cramps.

Helps you Combat Illness

Fight off Combat Infections, Influenza, Bacteria, and Viruses. Most illnesses are accompanied by a fever.

Sweat Gland Activation

Remove dangerous heavy metals, lipids and other unwanted materials by sweating in your Sauna.

Promote Healthier Skin

Much like a shower removes dirt from the surface of your body, sweating removes dirt from your pores.

Detoxification

As much as 15 percent of sweat produced in a typical infrared sauna is composed of dissolved fats, toxins and other materials.

Lose Weight and Increase Metabolism

Regular use of a Sauna imparts stress on the cardiovascular system, and its regular use may be as effective a means of cardiovascular conditioning and burning of calories as regular exercise.

Relaxes Muscles

Sauna Infrared energy has a direct effect on muscles that feel sore, or any other cramps, stiffness or pain you might be experiencing.

Pain Management

Far infrared saunas have been very beneficial in the treatment of Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and other pains that are associated with joints, muscles and bones.

Meditation

Combined with meditation the comfortable environment in a sauna promotes a relaxed, peaceful, experience that improves mental and physical well-being.

Sports Injuries and Work Accidents

Athletes with sports related injuries or anyone with work related injuries could speed up recovery merely by relaxing in a Sauna.

Sauna Use For Mental Well-Being

Far Infrared heat therapy is known to initiate endorphin release similarly as if exercise is occurring. Furthermore, when relaxation occurs in far infrared heat, muscles and tissues free up stored stress and tension, enhancing the mood and giving the body and mind a relaxed uplifted sense.


 

Sauna Health Benefits Summary
Although doctors and scientists have known about the many health benefits that Far Infrared energy has to offer, they are still just beginning to understand its true potential in relation to the human body. Even though Infrared technology seems complicated, the basic premise of its reaction with the human body is fairly simple. Far Infrared wavelengths, which are nothing more than the heating element produced naturally by our sun, penetrate deep into our body's core, seeping into our muscles, tissues and organs. This penetration causes three main effects.

The First effect of Far Infrared energy on our bodies is that it raises our core temperature. During a 15-30 minute sauna session skin temperature rises to 40°C (104°F) and internal body temperature rises to about 38°C (100.4°F). This rise in temperature creates an artificial fever state, known as hyperthermia. Fever is part of the body's natural healing process. Fever stimulates the immune system, resulting in increased production of disease fighting white blood cells, antibodies and interferon (an anti viral protein with cancer fighting capability). The rise in temperature also activates our sweat glands, which is the body's natural defense to purge itself of toxins, clean the skin and lower the core temperature so we don't overheat. These are all natural reactions the body has developed as we evolved over time to battle overexposure to the heat. There are numerous proven health benefits that directly correlate to this phenomenon.

The Second effect of Sauna Therapy and Far Infrared energy is that it gets our heart to start pumping faster. This is another reaction to the penetrating heat being absorbed by our bodies. As the heart pumps faster, blood flows through out the body, bringing vital nutrients and oxygen to our organs as well as carrying out toxins and waste that is no longer needed. Daily 15-30 minute sauna sessions will increase the hearts pumping action as though it were performing physical exercise. With this increase comes the benefit of a healthier heart, better blood flow and circulation as well as over all better health, as the body's internal network is allowed to insert and discharge vital components to organs, muscles and bones.

The Third effect of Infrared energy on the human body is through the detoxification process. Today's modern world surrounds us with toxins, chemicals and other man made pollutants that our bodies are exposed to, capture and store. With so many of these foreign objects being ingested by our systems, our bodies are having a difficult time finding ways to release them. Many times this can lead to temporary sicknesses, chronic illnesses and even death. Beyond the sweating process and blood flow increases that we outlined above, which do excrete some toxins, Infrared energy is now being linked to the ability to detoxify our fat cells and tissues. Fat cells and surrounding tissues have the main goal of storing energy in the form of fat. Unfortunately, in our modern world they are now beginning to also store the excess toxins and pollutants that our systems can't naturally excrete. Even more detrimental is that many times the body will excrete natural compounds and leave behind harmful, manmade, toxic metabolites. The storing of these toxins can lead to many negative outcomes. Infrared technology has been shown to be one of the best forms of purging these toxins from our bodies and habitual use has demonstrated to cleanse the fatty cells and allow the internal systems of the body to perform at an optimum level.

As you can see, Far Infrared energy combined with Sauna Therapy can be very beneficial on the human body. By using the body's natural defense mechanisms and boosting its ability to purge toxins, it gives us the capability to fight off prior diseases, ailments and discomforts as well as become proactive and builds defenses for future problems.
