@@Infrared Saunas@@
Far Infrared Sauna's are the latest health craze to hit the internet. Boasting huge benefits, lower operating costs, and easy installation, these sauna's have taken the sauna world by storm. Infrared saunas use Far-Infrared light to heat your body, instead of a traditional electric or gas heater that you'll find in most sauna's. This allows the sauna to heat up very quickly as it is the infrared lights effect on your skin that does the heating, not the air around you. This effect is much like if you are outside and walk from a shady spot to a sunny spot. You all of a sudden feel a great deal warmer. The air temperature around you has not changed, but the infrared light given off by the sun has warmed your skin. Infrared saunas harness this same power to give you the ultimate sauna experience at a fraction of the cost of traditional saunas.
@@Infrared Sauna Benefits@@
Infrared Sauna manufacturers have provided a wide variety of benefits that they claim are provided by using an infrared sauna. Most of these benefits can also be found with traditional sauna use, although many of the claims say that the infrared sauna will provide more of the same benefits in the same amount of time. The following are claims made by manufacturers of infrared saunas:
· Like exercise, taking a sauna speeds up your heart rate. The heat creates an increased need for oxygen, so you take deeper, fuller breaths. Increased oxygenation to your cells is among the important sauna benefits.
· While using an infrared sauna, your organs, tricked into believing your body has a fever, respond by flushing out toxins, which are whisked away by the increased flow of both blood and sweat.
· Infrared heat warms your body directly and creates a healthy purifying sweat at much lower temperatures than standard steam saunas.
· Infrared saunas purge clogged pores of deeply imbedded impurities and dead skin cells.
· Increased blood circulation that encourages a healthy flow of nutrients to your skin that helps relieve acne, eczema, psoriasis and burns.
· Encourage the healing of lesions and minor cuts.
· A sauna benefits people with chronic heart failure. In a Japanese test, people who spent 15 minutes a day, 5 days a week for 2 seeks in a 60C sauna then 30 minutes on a bed wrapped in blankets had significantly fewer premature heartbeats and episodes of irregular heart rates compared with people who didn't take the saunas. The sauna people also had lower blood concentrations of two s linked to heart damage--a significant infrared sauna health benefit. The saunas used in this study were heated with infrared lamps and were cooler than traditional saunas.
· Superior Detoxification: Removes Heavy Metals & Fat-stored Toxins.
· Stimulates and improves the immune system.
· Relieves pain.
· Aids in weight loss and cellulite reduction.
@@Far Infrared Radiant heat@@
Far infrared heat is a natural form of light energy which heats objects, but not the air around them. As the body absorbs the light energy it warms, but since air does not absorb the energy, it does not gain any heat. It is not to be confused with ultraviolet or UV radiation. This is a different type of light energy which can damage the skin. Far infrared light will penetrate the body tissue and travel as deep as two or three inches, increasing circulation and helping heal damaged tissues.
@@Infrared heat VS. Steam Heat@@
The main difference between an infrared sauna and sauna with a traditional heater is the air temperature. In a traditional sauna, the heater will heat the air to a high temperature, and thus create a hot atmosphere which warms the body and causes sweating. Unfortunately, this superheated air is also inhaled and is not altogether pleasant to breathe. Many people find breathing the heated air difficult and will thus not be able to stay in a traditional sauna long enough to enjoy the benefits. With a far infrared sauna, the air is not heated and thus the breathing problem is negated.
The cost of operating an infrared sauna is much less than a traditional sauna, due mainly to the fact that it does not require a pre-heat time where the traditional sauna must warm up prior to use.
@@Ceramic VS. Steel infrared heaters @@
Many far infrared sauna's on the market are heated with steel heating elements. The manufacters who produce ceramic heating elements consider steel to be older technology. Ceramic heating elements require less time to warm up, operate at lower temperatures than steel, and use less energy to attain deep penetrating heat.
Far infrared saunas are also known by the shorter name of infrared saunas.
