Now that we understand Far Infrared energy and how it works, you will be able to see the importance of using it in the sauna experience. As FIR is natural and already a part of everyday life, this makes it very safe for the use in our saunas.
The human body needs Far Infrared energy to sustain life, and as such the Far Infrared sauna experience means we are not exposing ourselves to unsafe or unnatural conditions like that of a traditional or steam sauna. The steam & exceptionally hot air generated in traditional saunas contacts the body’s skin, quickly resulting in a sweat that starts at the top layers of skin. This engages the body’s natural cooling mechanism, sweat. The instant sweat generated in a traditional sauna typically is made up of 97% water and 3% toxins and fatty acids. Far Infrared however, is absorbed deep into our bodies, down to a much deeper level where toxins & fatty acids are stored. This results in a much deeper & more concentrated sweat, generally around three times as much as that experienced in a traditional sauna. This deep sweat forces the toxins from the stores much more efficiently. A FIR sauna can expel up to 21% toxins - that’s up to 7 times more effective than a traditional sauna.
There are several reasons to use FIR in saunas, such as:
- • Lower purchase & running costs
- • Extremely safe – no adverse health effects like traditional saunas
- • Easy to assemble & versatile
- • Relieves Pain from Muscles and Joints
- • Strengthens Immune System
- • Removes Toxins Naturally
- • Relaxes and Relieves Stress
