The
Benefits
Of Far Infrared Sauna
if you
have never tried one now is the time!
FAR infrared sauna produce a form of radiant energy that
gently heats objects directly without heating the
surrounding air; it’s a process called conversion.
The thermal energy produced in an infrared sauna most
closely resembles or resonates with the human body.
The safeness of this process can be no better demonstrated
than its use in hospital humidicribs.
PAIN RELIEF
World wide clinical trials prove that the pain associated
with rheumatism and arthritis is greatly reduced by infrared
heat treatment. It reduces the incidence of muscle spasm,
increases blood flow to affected tissue and has been shown
to decrease the stiffness in rheumatoid affected joints by
up to 20%.
Increasing blood and oxygen through the body promotes faster
healing. The widespread use of heat therapy in treating
athletic and sports injuries is used specifically to
minimise recuperation times.
Conditions assisted by infrared therapy include: Neuralgia,
Sciatica, Menopause, Bursitis, R.S.I., Gastro enteric
problems and whiplash.
CARDIOVASCULAR CONDITIONING
The body responds to heat therapy as it does to exercise.
This conditioning exercises the circulatory system, opening
the arteries and blood vessels allowing better blood flow
and increasing the metabolic rate. For people unable to
undertake normal strenuous exercise to achieve the same
cardio work-out, this is great news. In the ‘eighties’, NASA
concluded that infrared therapy would be ideal for
maintaining the fitness of astronauts during long space
flights.
DEEP DETOXIFY
The infrared heat from our sauna enhances the body’s natural
detoxification process. Heat causes capillaries to dilate,
causing our bodies to flush out waste products from the
liver, stomach, muscles, brain and kidneys. Waste is
filtered from the body in the form of sweat.
Symptoms of toxin overload can include fatigue, headaches,
joint or muscle pain, frequent colds and flu, allergies and
skin conditions.
WEIGHT LOSS AND CALORIE CONSUMPTION
The Journal of the American Medical Association compared
rowing and marathon running with an infrared sauna. Both
exercises burned an average of 600 calories per 30 min.
session, whereas a 30 min. session in the sauna recorded in
excess of 800 calories. Faster calorie burning is achieved
by increasing heart rate, cardiac output and metabolic rate.
An additional benefit is that fat becomes soluble at 42
degrees and is released along with sweat and toxins.
RELIEVE STRESS
The tremendous feeling of relaxation can have a profound
impact on your health. Just 30 minutes in our sauna will
reduce stress, tension, physical fatigue and help you get a
good night’s sleep.
BENEFITS FOR THE SKIN
Cleansing and deep detoxification eliminates impurities and
removes dead skin cells. This revitalises the skin leaving
it soft and glowing.
Increased circulation is also known to relieve acne, burns,
lesions and cuts.
Improving the function of the skin will help the treatment
of Eczema and Psoriasis, reduce sunburn pain and even
improve body odour.
