Far Infrared Sauna Therapy
A powerful detoxification and healing modality that uses infrared light waves to warm the body from within.
What is Infrared Sauna?
One of the new health trends is a new twist on an old thing: the far infrared sauna. For years people have sweated in saunas or gone out to visit the Navajo and perform a sweat lodge ceremony that is supposed to cleanse a person both physically and emotionally.
An infrared sauna is a type of sauna that uses heat and light to relax a person and help detoxify their body by sweating the impurities out. However, the far-infrared or near-infrared saunas omit infrared light waves that help create heat in the body, forcing a person to sweat out the toxins and impurities that affect them.
The main difference between infrared saunas and conventional saunas is their infrared light penetrates the skin and warms the body, but not the air around a person. It has zero impact on the surrounding environment, which is why these could have a tremendous home market.
Deep Tissue Detoxification
Heal From the Inside Out With Infrared Light
Unlike conventional saunas that heat the air around you, far infrared light penetrates deep into your tissues — warming your body directly and triggering a powerful detoxification response at the cellular level.
Regular sessions support cardiovascular health, reduce chronic pain, improve circulation, and help eliminate heavy metals and environmental toxins stored in fat cells.
A Tradition of Healing
Heat treatments have been around for thousands of years to help heal and detoxify what ails a body.
Native Americans, Eastern Europeans, and ancient Chinese all developed their own forms of heat therapy using enclosed rooms heated with hot rocks.
The Navajo and other Native American tribes performed sweat lodge ceremonies to cleanse a person both physically and emotionally.
Dr. John Harvey Kellogg created the first light-near infrared lamp saunas, beginning the modern era of infrared therapy.
Advancements have not stopped, and various healers and holistic practitioners use far infrared saunas constantly in their programs.
Benefits of Far Infrared Sauna
Early studies show everything looks good — they seem to be safe, are fairly affordable, and powerful. The feedback is proving quite beneficial with many people who suffer from pain feeling better and those with anxiety issues becoming more relaxed.
Enhanced Detoxification
Sweating out toxins and impurities that affect the body through deep infrared penetration that reaches cellular level.
Pain Relief
Reducing pain in joints and muscles through anti-inflammatory effects similar to antioxidant nutrients.
Stress & Anxiety Relief
Parasympathetic healing that helps handle stress better, with many anxiety sufferers becoming more relaxed.
Boosted Metabolism
Activating cells and speeding up healing of wounds while carrying toxins away and out of the body.
Anti-Inflammation
Natural anti-inflammation effect that activates cells and helps restore the body's balance and lower inflammation.
Cardiovascular Support
Improving circulation and showing great promise in cardiovascular healing through cellular-level changes.
The Science Behind It
Far Infrared radiation is capable of changing cellular DNA in proteins and fat cells, cell membranes, and especially in water molecules. At a cellular level, the altered cell membranes and mitochondrial activity take place which has an effect on the metabolism.
Treatment Duration
Each treatment takes between 15–20 minutes and shows great promise in changing the chemistry within a body to help restore a person's balance, lower inflammation, pain, low energy, and improve circulation.
Not All Saunas Are Equal
The true value of a sauna lies in the power and quality of the wave generator — NOT the tent or box we sit in while being exposed to this healing and tonifying modality.
Far Infrared Saunas
Use metallic, ceramic, or black carbon elements for heating. Provide deep tissue penetration and clinical-grade therapeutic effects.
Near-Light Saunas
Use incandescent reddish heat lamps which are far less expensive and can be bought at any home improvement store, but of far less clinical value.
Conventional Saunas
Heat the air around a person. Infrared saunas penetrate the skin and warm the body directly without heating the surrounding environment.
