What is Far Infrared Sauna Therapy?

Healthy, healing low heat!

Although traditional saunas have been popular for centuries, they are not often thought of as treatments in traditional medicine. Saunas can be unbearably hot, steamy rooms in which breathing can be difficult. However, the advanced saunas at Progressive Medical Center produce soothing, healthy heat. Infrared technology brings forth a therapeutic sauna treatment that is not only relaxing but also proven beneficial for your health which is why we offer it as a standard treatment.

Infrared therapy works by using full-spectrum infrared sauna technology, which includes near, mid, and far infrared rays. These rays penetrate your skin and heat your core temperature from within, rather than just warming the air around you. The deep detoxifying sweat of an infrared sauna experience reaches the cellular level, where it can facilitate the removal of toxins and promote various healing processes. The result is numerous health benefits, including improved circulation, enhanced muscle recovery, and increased metabolism. This method allows you to experience all the advantages of a sauna session without the extreme heat of traditional saunas, making it a more enjoyable and accessible option for many people.

The Benefits of Far Infrared Sauna Therapy

Detoxification

Far infrared sauna therapy promotes detoxification by increasing your core temperature, which induces sweating and increases blood circulation, helping to remove heavy metals and toxins from the body at a deep cellular level.

Pain relief

The deep-penetrating rays of infrared saunas can alleviate joint pain and sore muscles by reducing inflammation and improving blood flow to affected areas, providing natural relief for conditions like arthritis and muscle soreness.

Weight control

Infrared sauna sessions can support weight control by boosting your metabolism and helping you burn calories, as the body works harder to cool itself down during the therapy.

Cardiovascular

This therapy enhances cardiovascular health by increasing heart rate and improving circulation, similar to the effects of moderate exercise, which can help lower blood pressure and improve overall heart function.

Skin purification

Infrared sauna therapy aids in skin purification by promoting sweat production, which helps to clear pores, remove impurities, and improve overall skin tone and texture.

Why is Far-Infrared better than a traditional
sauna session?

Infrared wavelengths are the invisible part of the sun’s spectrum consisting of near (NIR), mid (MIR), and far (FIR) rays. These rays can penetrate human tissue, making infrared beneficial because it heats the body directly at the core rather than simply warming the air. This results in in a deep sweat and body cleansing detoxification at the cellular level where the majority of toxins reside. And as an added bonus, the temperature doesn’t have to be as hot to receive the health benefits!

Is Infrared Heat Safe?

Infrared heat is completely safe and healthy for all living things. You can be exposed to infrared light for hours without the risk of burning. Infrared is a naturally occurring output of the sun but does not contain the harmful UV rays associated with unprotected sunlight. Infrared’s gentle heat is even used in hospitals to warm newborn infants.
