About Detoxification in an Infrared Sauna

Infrared saunas are becoming increasingly popular as alternatives to traditional saunas. Unlike ordinary saunas, which cause the body to sweat by heating the air around it, infrared saunas use heat generated by infrared. Because infrared heats the body through radiation and conversion, it does not overheat the body as quickly as traditional steam-based sauna techniques. This may result in longer, more comfortable sauna sessions.

Heat and Detoxification

1. Infrared saunas are designed to enable radiant heat to penetrate the skin. The wavelength of infrared is, according to sauna enthusiasts, ideal for deep-tissue heating. When the first several centimetres of the skin are heated, toxins are loosened from fat cells and transferred into sweat, which is then excreted from the body. Some health practitioners claim this form of detoxification can help to treat obesity, arthritis, and even serious conditions such heavy metal poisoning and cancer.
   

   Circulation Support

2. By stimulating circulation, infrared saunas may help to eliminate toxins in the blood and fat cells. Heat, when transferred into the body using infrared radiation, increases the heart rate and stimulates increased blood-flow to all areas of the body. This may cause the body’s major filters– the kidneys and liver– to kick into high-gear and help the body to detoxify. The tendency of infrared heat to improve circulation may also help to treat neuropathy and inflammation.
   

   Weight Loss

3. Many people pursue detoxification therapies to assist with weight loss, and infrared saunas are effective in enabling the loss of both fat cells and excess water. When exposed to heat, the body automatically responds by increasing sweat production. The shuffling of excess fluids may help to eliminate bloating and excess weight caused by water retention. Because the body burns calories in sweating, fat cells are burned to fuel the body’s cooling system.
