What is Far Infrared Therapy?
Far Infrared Heat
Far Infrared (FIR) heat is a completely safe form of energy that happens naturally, which heats objects directly. Infrared heat is not like ultraviolet rays but a narrow band of energy within the 5 to 15 micron level. This type of energy penetrates up to 45mm deep into the body to increase blood circulation and nourish damaged tissue.
The sun is the primary source of radiant energy, but not all of this energy is beneficial. Although life needs energy from the sun, too much sunlight damages the skin. Infrared heat provides many of the health benefits of natural sunlight without any of the dangerous effects of harmful rays of the sun.
The earliest experience we may have of radiant heat is the day we are born. Some of us as newborn babies are kept warm by radiant heat in hospitals using an incubator.
Far Infrared Health Sauna
A Far Infrared Health Sauna is an area or space that heats its occupant directly with heaters that emit Far Infrared heat. Unlike the Traditional Sauna, which uses heated steam, an Infrared Health Sauna does not heat the air. The sauna box creates the atmosphere of the sauna while the heaters create the actual sauna effect. The fact that the temperature is lower and can be controlled with a digital panel allows the toxins in the body to be extracted whilst the person saunas in comfort. The person also has the option to listen to their favourite music on the radio or CD, which is fitted to the Far Infrared Health Sauna as standard. The individual may decide to read which is also possible because there’s no steam. Other features to make the sauna experience more enjoyable are the back and side rest, as well as the colour therapy lighting. The person’s session should last no more than 30 minutes and be accompanied by a bottle of mineral water for regular drinking.*
