In todays stressed out and time-starved world, the benefits of a sauna are endless. With hectic schedules, odd hours, unhealthy diets and lack of time, the working generation suffers from stress and other related complications like obesity, heart disease, Alzheimer's disease, diabetes, depression, gastroenteritis, arthritis and so on and so forth. Modern amenities have gradually reduced physical exercises that induce perspiration. Add to that the polluted environment, affecting not only our immune system but also our general health. Perspiration is known to eliminate all the accumulated pollution and bacteria from our bodies, thereby leaving us refreshed and allowing our bodies to breathe. Today, one of the best ways to induce perspiration is an infrared sauna. Infrared saunas are the gateway to a healthier lifestyle, and are proven to be beneficial for the mind, body and spirit.

What are Far Infrared Saunas?

A sauna makes use of infrared heaters to give out infrared radiation in the form of heat and is absorbed by the surface of the skin. Far Infrared Saunas have been proven to be better and more effective than conventional saunas as Far Infrared Saunas use the same wavelength as the visible and non-visible spectrum of sunlight that naturally heat the body. Unlike conventional saunas- that raise the temperature within the chamber to a very high level, making it difficult for many people to tolerate it- Far Infrared heats the body directly, instead of the chamber, resulting in deeper penetration sans extreme heat.

The most important benefit of Far Infrared Saunas is increased metabolism that in turn helps burn calories, facilitating weight loss. After every sauna session, as the body cools, there is a considerable increase in heart rate and metabolism, helping the body burn more calories. And the more calories you burn, the more weight you lose. Far infrared saunas also reach deeper into the skin, significantly reducing cellulite.

Following closely are detoxification, relief from pain and improved blood circulation. Perspiration helps remove toxins from the body, while infrared heat penetrates deep into tissues, joints and muscles to alleviate minor aches as well as chronic pain conditions like arthritis, besides an increase in blood flow resulting from the heating of muscles. Detoxification also improves skin, giving it a natural glow.

Last, but certainly not the least, far infrared saunas serve as a great way of relaxation, where the gentle heat soothes the body, relieving stress and fatigue and improving sleep. Each Far Infrared Sauna session is guaranteed to leave you refreshed.
