Light panels do more than give infrared saunas a unique glow. They also heat things up in a completely different way than old-school saunas, which is really what sets this method apart, says Dr. Young. The lamps in infrared saunas focus a penetrating warmth directly on your skin to bring heat-therapy benefits. Traditional methods crank up the air temperature within an entire sauna. Our Infra Red Sauna panes has the lowest EMF & ELF Electromagnetic Frequency wavelenghts.
Infrared Sauna Benefits
1) Enhanced Skin Tone:
Infrared sauna therapy boosts circulation by dilating blood vessels, facilitating the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to the skin. This process aids in collagen formation, leading to improved skin tone and reduced wrinkles.
2) Detoxification:
Sweating induced by infrared sauna therapy helps eliminate toxins from the body, including pesticides, heavy metals, and environmental pollutants. This natural detoxification process supports overall immune function and reduces toxin buildup.
3) Weight Management:
Research suggests that regular infrared sauna sessions contribute to weight loss by increasing heart rate and calorie expenditure. Additionally, the therapy may help regulate appetite hormones, promoting balanced eating habits.
4) Cardiovascular Health:
Infrared sauna therapy positively impacts cardiovascular function, reducing the risk of cardiac events and improving overall heart health. The therapy enhances blood flow, lowers blood pressure, and increases heart rate, akin to the benefits of moderate exercise.
5) Pain Relief:
Infrared sauna therapy offers relief from chronic pain conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis. By reducing inflammation levels, the therapy alleviates pain, stiffness, and fatigue without the adverse effects of medications.
6) Accelerated Wound Healing:
Studies suggest that infrared sauna therapy accelerates wound healing by promoting tissue growth and cell regeneration. This effect is attributed to the mitochondria's enhanced response to infrared light exposure.
7) Improved Circulation:
Infrared sauna therapy enhances circulation, leading to various benefits such as improved skin health and reduced blood pressure. Patients with conditions like diabetes and high cholesterol have experienced enhanced blood vessel function following therapy.
8) Combatting Chronic Fatigue:
Infrared sauna therapy shows promise in alleviating symptoms of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), including fatigue, mood disturbances, and anxiety. The therapy's ability to reduce oxidative stress and enhance cardiac output may contribute to its effectiveness in managing CFS symptoms.
It's essential to note that while infrared sauna therapy offers numerous potential benefits, individual responses may vary. Consistency and adherence to recommended treatment protocols are crucial for maximizing the therapy's effectiveness.
The 3 types of Infra Red Sauna wave benifits
Whether you're new to sauna therapy or a dedicated wellness enthusiast, you've likely encountered the buzz surrounding infrared saunas. But what exactly is a Full Spectrum Infrared Sauna, and why all the excitement?
Full spectrum infrared saunas encompass all three types of infrared wavelengths: Far, Mid, and Near, each offering distinct benefits.
Infrared radiation is a segment of the Electromagnetic Spectrum. Breaking down the term "infrared," "infra" signifies below or further on, while "red" denotes the color red, the final hue on the spectrum.
Therefore, "infrared" collectively means "after red," reflecting the wavelengths' positioning beyond the visible red color. The terms far, mid, and near indicate the distance of each wavelength from red, as illustrated in the accompanying image.
Observing the "infrared" segment, near infrared lies closest to the red color, mid infrared occupies a central position between near and far, while far infrared extends farthest from red.
WAVELENGTHS IN A FULL SPECTRUM INFRARED SAUNA
NEAR INFRARED (NIR)
Near infrared (NIR) light therapy is a form of photobiomodulation that uses invisible, near-infrared wavelengths between 700 and 1200nm³ (nanometers) to deliver energy to cells. Scientific research shows that when delivered at the vital wavelength of 880nm, without extreme heat or light. The wavelength of Near Infrared is the shortest of the three infrareds. It’s absorbed just below the surface of the skin, promoting wound healing, cell health/regeneration, skin revitalization and can mitigate inflammation. NIR has also been shown to help clear up acne lesions, improve fine lines and wrinkles, and encourages collagen synthesis. It promotes skin renewal, cell health, wound healing, and tissue growth.
MID INFRARED (MIR)
Compared to near infrared wavelengths (which effectively penetrate and heal the skin) and far infrared wavelengths (which reach deep into the body, where toxins are stored), mid infrared wavelengths are longer than NIR, thus allowing for greater penetration into soft tissue. MIR can help with inflammation, pain and decrease overall healing time. Other benefits of infrared sauna include weight loss and the expansion of blood vessels, which leads to improved circulation. MIR helps expand blood vessels and increases circulation so more oxygen can reach injured areas of the body. This reduces pain and speeds the healing process. When used in combination with far infrared waves, MIR effectively stimulates the cardiovascular system and raises body temperature. As the body works to cool itself, heart rate, cardiac output and metabolic rate increase as they do during exercise. This in turn supports weight loss.
FAR INFRARED (FIR)
Being the longest wavelength, FIR penetrates the deepest where toxins and chemicals can be trapped. It can assist with weight loss and increases your heart rate. This increase in BPM’s can be equivalent to a mild cardio workout. In addition, FIR stimulates vasodilation, which in turn increases blood flow throughout the body. FIR can also reduce pain, ease joint stiffness, decrease inflammation and alleviate overall body stress. And of course powerfully detox you through substantial perspiration. In conclusion, Near, Mid, and Far infrared waves penetrate the skin, muscles, joints, and tissues to increase circulation, speed oxygen flow, and help rid the body of harmful toxins. They also help to remove impurities from your cells, specifically the cells inside our fat where our body stores waste and harmful toxins such as cholesterol and heavy metals. When all 3 wavelengths are inside of the same infrared sauna suite, you have yourself a symphony of therapeutic energy. We’re thrilled to offer full-spectrum infrared saunas at all of our locations. If you’re ready for a full spectrum infrared sauna experience like never before, join us at a Perspire studio near you! We look forward to warmly welcoming you in.
