How Do Infrared Saunas Benefit People?
-
Heat
-
The difference between a traditional sauna and an infrared sauna is that a traditional sauna heats the body indirectly with heat and steam, whereas an infrared sauna releases radiant heat that is directly absorbed into your body.
Detoxification and Circulatio
-
Infrared heat penetrates into the body and encourages sweating. Sweating is an important way for the body to rid itself of harmful toxins. In addition, infrared promotes increased circulation in the body.
-
Weight Loss
-
Both sweating and detoxification assist in weight loss. When experiencing extreme heat, the body needs to work harder to regulate its core temperature, one of the results of which is increased sweating. It takes the body 568 calories to produce one gram of sweat. Infrared saunas also assist in removing cellulite from the skin.
