Detox Series-Far Infrared Sauna

August 19, 2020

Far Infrared Sauna

Near, Mid & Far Infrared Sauna is great for the improvement of skin health. It is much different than your typical gym sauna which heats the air around you. The wavelength from the sauna penetrates deeply into the soft tissue (literally heats your internal body and temperature). As your core temperature increases, your circulation moves from the internal regions to the peripheral parts of the body. This improved blood circulation will revitalize and rejuvenate your skin to enhance a youthful vitality. 

How does it help with detoxing?

An infrared sauna is one of the most powerful means of detoxification. Since the wavelengths penetrate into the soft tissue of the body it is inducing an artificial fever. A fever is your body's natural way to "disinfect" and remove harmful bacteria. The sauna is riding your body of environmental toxins and stressors that can create ailments or conditions internally. 

Infrared saunas are great for skin conditions such as acne, Psoriasis and Eczema. If done for at least 15 minutes 3 times a week huge results for mild or serious cases of acne can be seen due to the sauna's ability to cleanse impurities out of the skin. Psoriasis is an autoimmune disorder, which means that the immune system is triggering new skin cell growth faster than normal, creating a build-up of layers of the skin on top of each other. Eczema is a response to outer environmental factors such as bacteria and allergens. Both Psoriasis and Eczema relate to a stress response or when your body is in a sympathetic state. Regular infrared sessions supports the body to get out of a stress response back into deep relaxation. It restores your body to get back into a parasympathetic state which aides in feeling rested, rejuvenated, nourished & relaxed. 

The sauna can also help with skin burns or wound healing. When the body's internal temp increases you sweat which helps moisten the skin, aiding in a quicker removal of dead skin cells. Collagen production is also enhanced, which produces new skin cells. The skin becomes smooth as the old skin cells wash away. Scars from burns or surgeries are healed at faster rates because old skin cells fall away as new ones are created. Your skin will be exfoliated while new healthy collagen is produced. 

Other benefits of an Infrared Sauna are improved immunity, heart health due to increased circulation, boosts metabolism and aides in weight loss & helps with muscle aches/restoring muscle regeneration.
