The Far-infrared Sauna

An infrared sauna uses emissions of light in the infrared wavelength to create a heat source that goes beyond the surface of the skin to the lymphatic tissue and organs beneath. The effect is to warm the body's core temperature level to create a sweating response. Sweating is our body's natural response to external and internal heat. For example, a hot humid day is an external source of heat while prolonged aerobic exercise or a fever is an internal heat source generated by the muscles of the body itself.

As you sit in the sauna, the infrared wavelengths emitted meet the skin surface and heat up the skin and underlying tissues to a depth of 3.5.4 inches. This creates an increase in lymphatic drainage via sweating, as the lymphatic system is most often located underneath the skin's surface. As you begin to sweat, the lymphatic system eliminates any toxins via the skin pores, greatly enhancing the circulation of lymphatic fluid and furthering the toxin elimination. It is important to sweat in this type of sauna in order to facilitate toxin elimination via the skin.
