Health Benefits of Infrared Sauna Therapy

Health Benefits of Infrared Sauna Therapy

By far the most important health benefit of the Far Infrared Sauna is its efficiency in removing toxins from the body.

The infrared sauna achieves this by a process called “resonate absorption” whereby the frequency of the Far Infrared matches the frequency of the water in the cell, causing toxins to be released into the blood stream and excreted through sweat.

Toxin Removal

Studies have shown that the sweat of people using a conventional sauna was found to be 95-97% water while the sweat of those using the Far Infra Red Saunas was 80-85% water with the 15-20% non-water component being cholesterol, fat soluble toxins, toxic heavy metals such as mercury and aluminium, sulphuric acid, sodium, ammonia and uric acid. This unusually high concentration of heavy metals & other fat-soluble toxins is not found in the sweat from normal exercise. Increased blood circulation caused by sweating stimulates the sweat glands, releasing built up toxins and waste. Daily sweating can help detoxify your body as it rids itself of an accumulation of potentially carcinogenic heavy metals. This removal of toxins from the system can help assist the symptoms of conditions such as allergies, acne, chronic fatigue, frequent colds, muscle and joint pain, poor concentration, eczema and mood swings.
