The Hottest New Trend: Infrared Sauna

Infrared saunas are a unique way to enjoy the many benefits of a traditional sauna, but with an added bonus! These special heaters emit infrared light that penetrates deep into your skin. You can experience improved circulation and detoxification due to this deeper level of warmth - without having to brave overly hot temperatures like in regular steam rooms.An infrared sauna can be a powerful way to detoxify your body from the everyday toxins in our environment. Unlike traditional steam or dry heat saunas, an infrared sauna uses invisible light waves that penetrate up to two inches below the skin's surface and raise core temperature which initiates sweating at lower temperatures than those of other types of sweat-inducing activities. The heat of infrared saunas encourages intense sweating, allowing your body to rid itself of unwanted toxins such as pesticides and heavy metals. By stimulating sweat glands, it also increases blood flow and improves lymphatic drainage. This not only makes you feel clean, but also reap all kinds of health benefits such as increased circulation, and improved heart rate variability (HRV) with deeper breathing techniques achieved through meditation practices during sessions, thus allowing for optimal relaxation while cleansing!For centuries, heat therapy has been used to naturally alleviate chronic pain conditions.
