DETOXIFY:
In today's society there is no escaping exposure to heavy metals and
toxins. We absorb them on a daily basis through the air we breathe,
the foods we eat, the water we drink and the products we use. The infrared
sauna allows you to rid your body of toxic heavy metals,
cholesterol, sulfuric acid, sodium,
ammonia,
uric acid and nicotine by detoxing the safe and natural way. Sweating
is easy and comfortable in an infrared sauna and will lessen the workload
on your kidneys and liver.
IMPROVE BLOOD CIRCULATION
When your body heats up it then starts working to try and cool itself
down. The heart starts pumping blood faster, diastolic blood pressure
drops and with your heart pumping blood at a faster rate, circulation
improves.
STRENGTHEN THE IMMUNE SYSTEM
Two thousand years ago, 'the father of Modern Medicine', Hippocrates
stated, "Give
me the power to create a fever and I shall cure any disease". Although
a fever will not cure any disease, it is the body's natural
defense to combating bacteria, microbes and infection. The "artificial
fever" created in an infrared sauna increases the production of
white blood cells by bone marrow and killer T cells in the Thymus.
RELIEVE
ACHES, PAINS & STIFFNESS
Heat therapy is not new and German physicians have been using infrared
heat therapy for over 80 years. Infrared technology promotes the natural
healing of soft tissue injuries and provides relief in chronic or 'permanent'
cases. The infrared sauna's deep heat helps peripheral blood vessels
dilate, bringing relief and healing to muscle and soft tissue injuries.
Increased blood circulation not only carries off metabolic waste products
but also delivers oxygen-rich blood to oxygen-depleted muscles so they
recover faster.
BURN CALORIES
The infrared saunas' energy penetrates fat storage cells and one can
help control weight by burning as many calories in one session as you
would rowing or jogging for 30 minutes. The sauna provides excellent
cardiovascular conditioning and would greatly benefit those not able
to physically exercise.
SKIN CONDITION
Deep cleanse your skin, unclog the pores and gain a glowing radiance.
As the deep heat penetrates the fat cells, they liquefy and provide
the ultimate in skin moisturizing.
WHEN NOT TO USE A SAUNA:
- If
pregnant or suspect that you may be - do not use
a sauna.
- Anyone with an infection - dental, joint or tissue
are not to use a sauna.
- If suffering from a recent joint injury, it
should not be heated for the first 48 hours - do
not sauna until the hot and swollen symptoms have
subsided.
- Do not use the sauna if you are on any anti-inflammatory
medication.
- According to some authorities, it is considered
inadvisable to raise the core temperature of anyone
with Adrenal Suppression, Systemic Lupus Erythermtosus
or Multiple Sclerosis.
- Surgical Implants: Metal pins, rods, artificial
joints, or any other surgical implants generally
reflect infrared rays and are not heated by an
infrared heat system. Nevertheless, a person should
consult his or her surgeon before receiving such
therapy. Certainly infrared therapy must be discontinued
if a person experiences pain near any implants.
- Silicone: Silicone does absorb infrared energy.
Implanted silicone or silicone prostheses for nose
or ear replacement may be warmed by infrared rays.
Since silicone melts at over 200 degrees Celsius,
it should not be adversely affected by an infrared
heat system. However, it is still advised that
a person checks with his or her surgeon, and possibly
a representative of the product manufacturer to
be certain.
- Hemophiliacs and anyone predisposed to hemorrhage
should avoid infrared usage or any type of heating
that would induce vasodilatation that can lead
to the tendency to bleed.
Should any condition worsen with the use of an
infrared heat system, the use of the system should
be discontinued.
Pain should not be experienced when using an infrared
heat system. If one does, the use of radiant heat
is clearly inappropriate for the person at that time.
