Conventional sauna has proven through time its health benefits. It has been widely known and noted that with the right amount of heat and sweating that you get from saunas, you actually stimulate multiple parts of your body not only your skin. Recently with the advancement of technology, having that sauna experience in your very own home can be both practical and economical than going to actual regular sauna. Portable infrared sauna is one convenient way to easily improve your health in the comfort of your own place. These devices use infrared light for heating, very much like the sun. Infrared sauna heats up the body temperature without heating the air surrounding the body. Here is a list of health benefits that you get with infrared sauna.
1. Removal of Toxic Substances – It has been noted that infrared heat direct the body into resonant absorption, which removes toxic substances in the body better than the traditional sauna can. This different heat source mimics the sun, which will not heat the air around the body (unlike the regular sauna), a kind of heating that directly penetrates the skin and even way beyond the skin transmitted heat energy and directly stimulating the muscles. With this kind of heat, your body will tend to sweat more. Like in the regular sauna your body will sweat out those toxin but only better because of the better heating mechanism, you body will sweat as much as twice or three times more than the regular sauna.
2. Pain Removal – Infrared sauna is also known to be beneficial to relieving muscle pain, stiffness and fatigue. Because of the heat that is able to penetrate deep into the skin and into the muscle, the muscles become relaxed and stimulated to relax. Infrared Sauna is a very good treatment for arthritis, other joint pains and muscle injuries. Other than that, it is also know to improve blood circulation making it beneficial to those suffering from high cholesterol, high blood pressure, chronic fatigue syndrome, obesity, and heart ailments.
With the advance technology of infrared heating, compared to the normal heating of a traditional sauna – many are able to enjoy sauna without the other risks that the latter have. For example traditional saunas are known to heat the air, making the air thick and heavy and harder to inhale. That is why traditional saunas are not recommended to people with heart or lung problems. In the meantime infrared saunas are known to operate in a lesser heat compared to the traditional ones, yet a kind of heat that penetrates the skin directly. Only 20 percent of the heat enters the air molecules so you are sure you get most of the heat (80 percent) your body will need in order to sweat out those toxins. Regular sauna has great health benefits, but with the invention of the infrared sauna you are sure you get the optimum benefit of literally sweating it out.
