WHAT IS INFRARED SAUNA AND HOW DOES IT WORK?
Infrared heat is all around us and you have felt it from sources like fire, heated sand on the beach, the sun (without the harmful UV waves). Just as visible light has a range of wavelengths, so does infrared light. The longer wavelengths or far infrared waves are thermal, while short or near-infrared waves are not hot all, in fact, you cannot even feel them. Near and mid-infrared waves enhance the benefits of far infrared waves.
Infrared saunas can produce the same infrared heat produced by the sun that is required for all living things for optimum health. This radiant heat increases the thermal energy in joints, muscles and tissues. When used as intended as part of a healthy lifestyle, infrared saunas may help well with certain chronic diseases or conditions.
The main difference between infrared saunas and traditional saunas is how they use heat. Traditional saunas use a single heater that is heating the air and this hot air heats the user. In contrast, infrared saunas use advanced therapy to promote heat generation in the body with only a small percentage of the heat heating the air. This results in a deeper sweat and at a lower ambient air temperature. In fact, infrared saunas usually operate between 115° – 135°F, while traditional saunas can get up to 195°F.
You will get all of the relaxation benefits of a traditional sauna along with the increased health benefits that infrared offers all at a much more comfortable temperature.
Infrared saunas are also dry saunas and many users find this makes for a more comfortable sauna session.
