(ARA) – Anyone who has experienced the relaxing and cleansing effects of a sauna knows how it can help you feel rejuvenated. While saunas are usually associated with spas and pampering, the fact is that saunas have many health benefits as well.
“We are exposed to many toxins every day, from food additives to household cleaners to air and water pollution and more,” says Dr. David Minkoff, founder of Lifeworks Wellness Center in Clearwater, Fla. “Saunas help the body sweat out these toxins and detoxify for better health.”
But not all saunas are created equal. The body responds to conventional dry heat saunas by sweating, which is a beneficial but somewhat superficial level of detoxification. In addition, many people find conventional dry heat saunas uncomfortable due to the oppressive heat and are unable to remain in the sauna long enough to reap the maximum benefits.
Far infrared saunas, however, actually stimulate the body at the cellular level to help rid the body of toxins stored deep in the tissues, instead of just detoxifying the sweat glands. Far infrared light also stimulates the circulatory system, causing the heart to beat more vigorously and blood vessels to dilate, which helps cleanse the circulatory system and more fully oxygenate the body’s cells.
Here’s how it works. Infrared light makes up part of the sun’s invisible spectrum of light waves. It easily penetrates human tissue and causes an activation of thermal energy, creating a sensation of heat. When the body’s toxin-containing water molecules are exposed far infrared light (a particular frequency of infrared light), the water begins to vibrate. “This reduces the ion bond of the atoms binding the water molecules and as the molecule breaks down, cellular toxins like mercury, aluminum, cholesterol and toxic gasses such as sulfur and formaldehyde are released,” explains Dr. Minkoff. Alcohol and nicotine are also purged from the body.
Experts recommend regular sauna usage to promote the benefits of infrared heat and detoxification, making an in-home sauna a good option for busy individuals who don’t have time to visit a health club, spa or doctor’s office every day. Adding a far infrared sauna to your home is easier than you might think.
