Full-Spectrum Infrared Sauna Health Benefits
Detoxification
Sweating is the body’s safe and natural way to heal and stay healthy. Far-infrared penetrates deeply into the tissues and heats the body from the inside out causing a rise in core body temperature. This results in a deep detoxifying sweat at the cellular level where toxins such as heavy metals, drug residues, and hormone disruptors reside.
Lowers Blood Pressure
Infrared saunas induce a deep sweat to make the heart pump faster, which in turn increases blood flow, lowers blood pressure and increases circulation. Sunlighten infrared saunas have been clinically shown to provide one of the best, natural ways to lower blood pressure. A 2005 clinical study concluded that regular Sunlighten infrared sauna sessions, dilated blood vessels and reduced the volume of their inner lining, thus increasing circulation needed for healthy blood pressure.
Improved Circulation
Infrared Saunas give the body a passive cardio workout raising the heart rate and increasing circulation. Your heart is a muscle and working it makes it stronger. Heating the muscles with infrared rays (especially mid-infrared rays ) can increase blood flow similar to that seen during exercise. In fact, regular infrared sauna usage can stimulate blood flow up to twice its normal rate.
Pain Relief & Muscle Recovery
Infrared heat penetrates soft tissue, muscles, and joints to reduce inflammation and help relieve minor aches and pains as well as chronic pain conditions such as fibromyalgia and rheumatoid arthritis. Increased blood circulation carries off metabolic waste products and delivers oxygen-rich blood to oxygen-depleted muscles, so they recover faster.
Anti-Aging & Skin Rejuvenation
Near-infrared is the most effective wavelength for renewing, refreshing, and rejuvenating the skin. Near-infrared stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, reduces fine lines and wrinkles, reduces cellulite, firms, and improves overall skin tone and texture. Infrared sauna therapy increases circulation and detoxifies the skin which have also been shown to improve the appearance of scars, reduce acne and promote wound healing and cell regeneration.
Weight loss
Infrared saunas can help you lose weight and burn calories while you relax. Studies have shown that an infrared sauna session can burn up to 600 calories. As the body works to cool itself, there is a significant increase in heart rate, cardiac output, and metabolic rate, causing the body to burn more calories. Infrared Sauna therapy can also release environmental toxins stored in fat tissues that tend to prevent weight loss.
Cell Health & Immunity
Near-Infrared therapy stimulates the circulatory system and more fully oxygenates the body’s cells. Better blood circulation allows for more toxins to flow from the cellular level to the skin’s surface improving cell health and strengthening the immune system. Far-Infrared raises core body temperature, inducing an artificial fever, which enhances the immune response just like a fever can. Studies have shown that regular infrared sauna use can reduce the incidences of the common cold and flu.
Relaxation
Infrared saunas provide a gentle, soothing, and therapeutic heat that promotes deep relaxation and improved sleep quality. The soothing infrared warmth will help relax your muscles, release tension and melt away stress. With each session, you’ll enjoy an invigorating deep tissue sweat, leaving you feeling fully refreshed and rejuvenated.
