Benefits of Far Infra-Red Radiant Saunas

Far Infrared Radiant Sauna vs Conventional Saunas

The Electromagnetic spectrum includes gamma rays, X-rays, ultraviolet, visible, infrared, microwave, and radio waves. The only difference between these different types of rays is their wavelength frequency. Wavelength increases and frequency (plus energy and temperature) decreases from gamma rays down to radio waves. All these forms of rays travel at the speed of light. Infrared lies between the visible and microwave portions of the electromagnetic spectrum. The infrared waves have wavelengths longer than visible and shorter than microwaves and have frequencies which are lower than visible and higher than microwaves. Near infrared refers to the point of the infrared spectrum that is closest to visible light and far infrared (long wavelengths)

refers to the part that is closer to microwave regions of the spectrum.

When an object is not quite hot enough to radiate visible light, it will emit most of its energy in the infrared, le.: hot charcoal may not give off light, but does emit infrared rays which we feel as heat. Although our eyes cannot see it, the nerves in our skin can feel it as heat.

We experience infrared every day. The heat that we feel from sunlight, a fire, a radiator is infrared.

Conventional saunas rely on indirect means of heat to heat the human body. First on heating air currents and then conduction which the hot air has direct contact with the skin to produce its heating of our bodies. In an Infra-Core infrared sauna, less than 20% of the infrared energy heats the air, leaving the remaining 80% to directly transform to heat within the human body. An Infra-Core sauna will warm its users to a more deeper level and more efficiently than a conventional sauna. This is what makes the infrared sauna more health beneficial compared to a conventional sauna. The Infra-Core sauna produces a long wave infrared also known as far infrared.

Why Do We Use Long Wave Infrared?

There are three main sections of electromagnetic spectrum divided by wavelengths, measured in microns:

Humans, at normal body temperature radiate most strongly in the infrared at a wavelength of about 10 microns (micron is the term commonly used for a micro-meter or one millionth of a meter). The long wave infrared occurs just below "infra" to red light as the next lowest energy band. This level of light is not visible to the human eye, but we can feel this type of light as heat. The earth radiates rays in the 7 to 14 micron range with its peak output at 10 microns. The Infra-Core sauna heating ceramic emitters,

which are 96% radiant efficient, have a majority of output from 5.6 to 25 microns. This output is evenly spread around the 9.3 micron pivot point of maximum human output. The energy output from the infrared sauna matches so closely to the human body's radiant energy, that our bodies take in close to 93% of the infrared waves that reach our skin.

The Infrared Radiant sauna has been greatly used in treating

people who suffer from toxic load. These patients are very high in toxic loads, and the detoxification pathways in their bodies suffer. When one is able to reduce the toxins and heavy metals, their symptoms most often greatly improve. Many people unknowingly suffer from mercury poisoning, and other heavy metals such as lead and aluminum. The infrared sauna raises the core temperature which accelerates the removal of these toxins and also improves a number of areas in the immune system. Infrared helps purify our cells, expecially the cells in our fat where our bodies store waste and harmful toxins, such as cholesterol and heavy metals.

Infra-Core Health Benefits

Promotes detoxification of heavy metals and toxins. Increases circulation and oxygen supply to damaged tissues. Boosts immune and cardiovascular systems. Relieves pain. Burns calories and controls weight. Burns up to 600 calories in 25-minute sessions. Has exercise effect on cardiovascular system. Beautifies the skin and helps to remove cellulite. Enjoy tranquility and relaxation. Cleans skin through perspiration. 2 to 3 times more effective than traditional saunas. Helps to relieve aching muscles. Helps to increase circulation. Available in poplar for patients with allergies or chemical sensitivities or chronic disease FIR heat penetrates 1-1/2 inches. Operates at 86°F - 194°E compared to common saunas at 180°F - 220°E.

"A sauna used to be thought of as a luxury. But studies now confirm that diet and environ-mental chemicals cause 95% of cancers.

Furthermore, as the first generation of man exposed to such an un-precedented plethora of daily chemicals, we have learned that stored or undetoxified chemicals can mimic any disease. `Incurable' chronic diseases that were thought to have no known cause often disappear once toxic chemicals are gone. Since the far infrared sauna is the safest, most efficacious and economical way of depurating stored toxins, this makes it a household necessity."
