Everyone strives to be healthy and happy. Infrared Saunas can help you achieve this goal with the many health benefits they offer. They can lower your blood pressure, aid in weight loss, and extend your life. Mainstream media is finally giving infrared saunas the attention they deserve, according to Dr. Mehmet Oz on The Oprah Winfrey Show.
The following are some unique health benefits that infrared saunas provide users:
Lower Blood Pressure
Infrared saunas are different from normal saunas in that they make the same rays that come from the sun without the UV radiation, leaving only the infrared rays. These rays are then lightly absorbed into the skin. Dr. Oz mentions the reason heating the body is important is that it is shown that people who take saunas a couple of times per week actually drop their blood pressure. The infrared sauna environment in which they are lowering their blood pressure is a more comfortable temperature than sitting in a heated traditional sauna environment. These saunas excel due to the fact that they do not hurt your lungs if you take a deep breath.
Detoxification
We spoke about the benefits infrared saunas have on detoxification in our Sauna FAQ. The main thing we want to stress is to wash your skin once you exit the sauna to get the toxins off your skin and refresh your system.
Weight Loss
We also mentioned the benefits of weight loss that come from using an infrared sauna in our Sauna FAQ. Since it increases blood circulation, makes your heart beat faster and gets you to burn more calories. Hats off to burning calories!
Extend Your Life
A major benefit is helping to extend your life. Medical researchers have long been reporting on the health benefits of infrared sauna therapy. It helps support those who suffer from fibromyalgia, arthritis, chronic fatigue syndrome, and even autism. The circulatory and blood pressure lowering benefits are a major plus! Another benefit that helps to extend your life, and the overall quality of your life, is the fact that saunas aid in relaxation. With all the stress being experienced and the fast pace of life, saunas help you take a moment and fully relax. The heat also helps bring that relaxation to a heightened stage of completion.
