What Is Heat Therapy?
Infrared therapy is low temperature dry heat therapy, using comfortable temperatures that are adjustable and average 100°F to 130 °F. These lower temperatures allow you to sweat faster and to tolerate a longer sauna session offering greater therapeutic benefit.
A far infrared heater having a surface temperature of approximately 180-200° F will produce much higher quality far infrared heat than a heater running at 450 degrees or, as some heaters do, 700 degrees. Add in the additional benefit of 1,000 watts of Full Spectrum Infrared Clearlight® Saunas by Clearlight and you’ll receive the total holistic affect.
Warm up your sauna for about 10-15 minutes and once you are in, turn the temperature all the way up. The temperature will climb comfortably during your 30-45-minute session and will be a more relaxing and ultimately more affective.
Having experienced its healing benefits first hand, heat therapy is what attracted us to the sauna business. Its origins date back to ancient Roman, Turkish, Mexican and of course Finish cultures, where it is credited for improving cardiovascular function & blood circulation. When your body temperature rises, blood vessels dilate, heart rate increases and blood flow quickens, all resulting in a healthier, cardiovascular experience.
The body itself uses heat to as a therapy
Pain reduction & muscle recovery are also well-known reasons for heat therapy because as the core body temperature increases blood flow, it naturally contributes to a more holistic healing process for any aches and pains in joints and muscles.
Sauna Heat Therapy Makes Medical Break-Through With Infrared Technology
“It’s not just about sweating. It’s about sweating smarter. Studies show that sweat from a traditional sauna contains about 3-5% toxins where sweat from an infrared sauna contains about 17-20% toxins”
Lower temperatures allow for longer stay times and greater health benefits
