The Extraordinary Health Benefits of the Infrared Sauna:
Detoxification ~
Whether you are chronically ill, or just wish to reduce your toxic burden and stay that way, the far infrared sauna is recognized by health practitioners worldwide as one of the most effective methods of removing chemical and heavy metal toxins from the body.
The infrared sauna removes heavy metal toxins (including mercury), and fat-stored toxins, plus metals trapped in connective tissue and the brain. It also increases the eliminative, detoxifying, and cleansing capacity of the skin by stimulating the sweat glands. When the liver, kidneys and lungs have been damaged by chronic exposure to environmental toxins, the body's ability to eliminate toxins becomes impaired. The sauna assists the body in eliminating the toxins and promotes the restoration of those organs back to proper function so that they can address future toxins.
Enhanced Immune System ~
A typical sauna session will cause a brief (and minor) increase in body temperature, identical to the body's defense mechanism against bacteria, microbes, and infection. The beneficial side effect of this temperature increase is immune system improvement resulting from increased production of white blood cells by your bone marrow and killer T cells by your thymus.
Pain Relief ~
Infrared heat can help relieve pain by dilating blood vessels. This allows increased blood circulation and more oxygen to reach injured areas, thereby speeding up the healing process. Infrared heat has also been used extensively in the treatment of arthritis, rheumatism, and muscle spasms.
.....and much more, ie., stress reduction, improved cardiovascular conditioning, and weight control.
Operating at a much lower temperature than traditional saunas, which can stress the heart and body the far infrared sauna is 2 to 3 times more effective, and safer for chronically ill people.
