Sweating is your body’s natural way of eliminating toxins. Infrared Saunas for Home help you do that more effectively, according to research.

What are the pros and cons of infrared saunas?

During an infrared sauna session, you’ll be sitting or lying inside a heated room that emits infrared radiation. This radiant heat penetrates the skin and warms your body from the inside out.

As your core temperature rises, your heart rate will increase and blood vessels will dilate to promote better circulation. This enhanced circulation can aid in muscle recovery, improve joint pain and reduce stress levels.

A good infrared sauna session will help you sweat and relax, while also boosting your metabolism. The Journal of the American Medical Association reports that a 30-minute infrared sauna session can burn up to 600 calories.

Infrared saunas have a lower heat range than traditional saunas, making them more accessible to those who may not be able to handle the high temperatures of a conventional hot-air model. They are also safer for those who have health concerns like heart disease, high blood pressure or diabetes.

Detoxification:

In an infrared sauna, your body sweats fat-soluble toxins, heavy metals and other waste products as well as water. This sweating helps remove toxins and wastes that your body has stored from over-eating, alcohol consumption, drug abuse or environmental pollution.

Pain Relief:

An infrared sauna session can help ease chronic pain and reduce symptoms of arthritis, fibromyalgia and other musculoskeletal disorders. It can also help alleviate headaches, sinus problems and back pain.
