Healthy Heat

Saunas originated in Finland. It is a bath house built from wood with chimney. It is a closed room, which produces steam bath from heated stones and water. Benches are made of wood too. Heat temperatures are above 80 degrees Celsius or 200 degrees Fahrenheit. Bathers need to take off their clothes in order for the steam to penetrate the skin and body. Separate steam room for men and separate room for women. First-timers can initially stay in a sauna for 10 minutes and can work up their way to 20 minutes by a minimal increase in time. Steam baths have been said to have health benefits on our body’s blood circulation so it is very much safe to do. Since heat is produced, it promotes sweating that gets rid of other toxins in our body, toxins that are hard to reach, thus our body is cleansed.

Infrared used in saunas are absolutely safe because it is just like staying out in the morning sun to get the nourishment we need. Like the warmth of the morning sun, infrared mimics the heat from the sun. Even our body can naturally produce Infrared heat.

Another new way is through Far Infrared Saunas. Far Infrared gently heats our body. Far Infrared though gentle, can penetrate the skin and over all distributes the radiant warmth the sun brings. Far Infrared is a narrow band of the sun’s energy that uses wavelengths of noticeable and non-visible light spectrum from sunlight that naturally heats the body. We do not need much heat because it can damage and burn the skin, thus Far Infrared heat is provided. Far Infrared Saunas are better to have than the traditional saunas. It doesn’t need to heat the air but directly warms the body. With Far Infrared saunas, your sauna sessions are more sanitized.
