  • Infrared Sauna


    A Safe, Effective Therapy Infrared saunas offer a number of advantages over traditional saunas which produce additional health benefits. First, while a traditional sauna heats the body via the air, infrared saunas cause heat to be directly absorbed into the tissues, resulting in a faster and deeper heat transfer. This raises the body's core temperature and induces a powerful sweating response. Second, infrared saunas are much more comfortable than traditional saunas, because the air surrounding you remains much cooler. This is more beneficial for the respiratory system, and allows many people who would otherwise avoid saunas or leave a sauna after only a few minutes, to enjoy full sessions of infrared therapy.

    Relieves Stress Stress profoundly impacts our health as it weakens our immune system and accelerates heart disease. In just thirty minutes, a Far Infrared sauna deeply relaxes every part of the body and mind.

    Improved Circulation Because infrared heat rays penetrate deep into the tissues, they cause vasal dilatation, which increases the flow of oxygen and nutrients necessary for the healthy maintenance of tissues, muscles, and vessels.

    Increased Heart Rate Using an infrared sauna provides many of the same benefits as rigorous physical exercise. For some people, a 30 minute session is as effective for burning calories as a 2-3 mile run.

    Generates Softer, Healthier Skin Increases blood circulation to the skin which allows the body to more effectively eliminate toxins and carry nutrients to the skin, leaving it well nourished, soft and supple.

    Faster Healing of Sports Injuries Healing of injuries can be sped up because of the increased blood flow bringing more oxygen to the blood vessels, and removing the toxins from inflamed cells faster.

    Detoxification Every day, our bodies are inundated with toxic substances such as heavy metals, pesticides, herbicides and medicines. These collect in our bodies and can cause serious disease and sickness if not eliminated. Sweating is one way to aid in the elimination of these toxins.

    Eases Joint, Muscle and Soft Tissue Pain and Stiffness Doctors have been using Far Infrared technology for years, in the treatment of joint pain. Far Infrared rays penetrate deep into the joints, muscles and tissues to provide relief to individuals suffering from conditions such as arthritis, chronic fatigue syndrome, and fibro myalgia.

    Induces Weight Loss Patients who have received regular far infrared sauna treatment have shown statistically significant reductions in body weight.

    Lowers Blood Pressure Far Infrared heat penetrates deep into the body, causing blood vessels and capillaries to dilate, consequently lowering blood pressure.

    Stronger Immune System Far Infrared treatment increases the production of white blood cells, stimulating the body's natural immune response, and specifically, boosts production of T blood cells which also aids in the healing process.

    Improved Stretching When used as a pre-stretch warmup, an infrared sauna can help you stretch your muscles and tendons further, and maintain that stretch longer. It is no wonder that doctors and therapists use far infrared heat to effectively treat muscular pain, rheumatism, skin problems and sports injuries.

    Infrared saunas use a safe and gentle form of radiation in the 5.6 - 15 micron wavelength range. Extensive research has demonstrated that this type of radiation is of most benefit to our body because of its therapeutic and tissue regenerative properties. The infrared energy is so safe that it is used in hospitals in incubators to warm newborn babies.

    The infrared sauna benefits include the following:

    - Fat-burner
    • During your relaxing and rejuvenating infrared sauna session, your body sweats and burns calories.


    - Pain-reliever
    • Increased blood circulation improves nearly any condition. The delivery of oxygen-rich blood to all muscles and joints stimulates the healing process for all joint and muscle related ailments.



    - Detoxification
    • The deep penetration of the infrared rays into your body and the resonance with your body tissue cells ensure quick removal of body toxins. Your body's natural sweat reaction in the infrared sauna ensures that your skin is deeply purified and that toxins find their way out. Efficiently.




    - Skin regeneration
    • Infrared energy is a natural phenomenon. The sun emits infrared energy. Most living creatures emit infrared rays (that is why they can be seen with infrared night viewers). Infrared waves penetrate to the deeper layers of the skin and assist cell replacement and deep cleansing of your skin. Other effects include purging clogged pores of deeply imbedded impurities and dead skin cells. You will be amazed by your glowing radiant skin. The increased blood circulation encourages a healthy flow of nutrients to your skin that helps relieve acne, eczema, psoriasis and burns. Saunas will also encourage the healing of lesions and minor cuts.

    - Stress relieve
    • The warm soothing effect of the radiation will provide immediate benefit to tightened and knotted muscles, leaving the user feeling refreshed and invigorated.



    - Cardiovascular fitness
    • Use of the sauna enhances blood circulation, stimulating the perspiration process and in turn increasing the body's heart rate and overall cardiac output. This achieves a similar cardiovascular conditioning as vigorous exercise.




    - Boosted Immune System
    • The infrared heat strengthens the body's immune response, resulting in increased resistance to disease. Recent studies show cold and flu symptoms are reduced dramatically if treated early with infrared heat. Infrared sauna benefits include strengthening of your immune system by raising your white blood cell count.

    A few must-know tips when using an infrared sauna
    • Ensure that you are adequately hydrated prior to using the sauna. This means that you should drink. Please drink water. Your infrared sauna will assist in weight loss, but it's not a good idea to replenish the lost calories with high-calorie drinks. Drink water.

      Place towels on the bench seat and under your feet to absorb perspiration and maintain the cleanliness and hygiene of the unit.

      Limit the use of lotions or oils prior to using the sauna, as these products block pores and limit perspiration.
