The Power of Infared
Traditional steam saunas range from 180° to 200°F. Steam from conventional saunas make the air difficult to breathe and cause you to only sweat at the surface of the tissue. Infrared saunas use a soothing dry infrared heat that is effective at a comfortable 120° to 150°F. This lower temperature results in a much more comfortable experience while achieving maximum results.
Infrared saunas increase the body’s core temperature, resulting in a much deeper, more detoxifying sweat from the cellular level of the skin where many toxins are housed. An infrared sauna has the potential to excrete up to six times more toxins from the deep layers of your skin. Fat, heavy metals, chemicals, and unwanted acids are excreted through sweat, creating an amazing way to detoxify your body all while burning up to 600 calories.
By penetrating the skin (up to 1 1/2 inches deep), infrared rays stimulate the tissues, muscles, organs and joints, causing an acceleration of blood flow, increased healing and increased metabolism. This can also result in a strengthened immune system and increased muscle strength by enriching the tissues with oxygen.
