 "One
1989 German study found that people who used saunas twice a week
caught half as many colds as those who did not. One theory: When you
take a sauna, you inhale air hotter than 80 degrees – a temperature
too hot for cold and flu viruses to survive." (Ellen
Dwyer, Club Solutions Magazine, Jan 2007)
Just think about it, when you're sick with the flu, a
fever (the body's response to infection) causes you to sweat
(increased activity of your immune system). Something similar
happens when you are "sauna bathing". Simply put, the
penetrating heat of an infra red sauna stimulates a "fever reaction."
This fever reaction stimulates sweating which helps the body almost
painlessly expel larger volumes of toxins present in the body.
Saunas are great for people of all ages (consult your doctor or
pediatrician first).
An old sauna building
stoked by a charming fire in the middle of the snow covered
Scandinavian woods congers visions of jumping from the heat of the
sauna into a nearby snow bank! Invigorating yes! Some of the most
relaxing afternoons that I have ever experienced have been minutes
sweating a storm in a sauna followed by a jump in the hotel pool.
Talk about sleeping well later on. You're relaxed. Your
hair & skin feel great. Your mind even seems a bit more clear.
Here are some of the
health benefits of a sauna:
- Aids in Reducing Stress & Fatigue
- Aids in Relaxation
- Aids in Relieving Body Pain -
deep penetrating infra-red heat brings relief & healing to your body's
peripheral muscles & tissue by dilating smaller surface blood vessels
thereby increasing blood flow
- Aids in Increasing Blood
Circulation - sweating is the body's way of cooling itself.
Your heart rate increases, boosting circulation - just as if you were
exercising.
- Aids in Boosting Your Immune System
- as the temperature of your skin increases, white blood cell
production increases as well.
- Aids in Relieving Arthritis & Joint
Stiffness - heat has almost always been a "treatment of choice"
when treating arthritis & joint ailments. The radiant heat of
Infra-red saunas has proven effective when treating muscle spasms,
sprains, neuralgia, bursitis, and many other muscular-skeletal
ailments.
- Aids in Improving Skin Tone &
Elasticity - the deep heating of your infra-red sauna causes
profuse sweating. When you sweat, toxins, dead skin cells &
other impurities are carried off leaving cleaner skin that glows.
Plus you'll also notice an increase in tone, elasticity, color &
texture. Remember to shower first with a mild soap to remove
excess oils, deodorants, perfumes, make-up for best results.
- Aids in Burning Calories &
Promoting Weight Loss - as your body heats up & sweats, your body
naturally expends energy! You could burn as many calories in
your Sauna session as you would in a 30 minute jog.
- Aids in Clearing Cellulite -
the deep radiant heating of the infra-red sauna penetrates up to 3
times deeper than a traditional sauna. As cellulite (gel-like
lumps of fat, water & debris trapped in your skin) is broken up by the
heat, the sweating of your body then helps to eliminate that waste.
Why just sweat out water (up to about 95%) in a conventional sauna
when you can sweat out up to double the amount of fat-soluble toxins,
toxic minerals, uric acid, ammonia & other impurities using an
infra-red sauna?
