Originating in Finland and dating back more than 2000 years, Saunas have been used for millennia as not only a place to wash, but as a rejuvenating, invigorating and healing environment.
Today, modern technology and innovations have taken the traditional sauna and transformed it into a detoxification and wellness tool enjoyed by millions worldwide.
This quarter, The Sauna Life discusses the unique benefits of infrared, detox and wellness protocol, highlighting its impressive line of Clearlight® Infrared Saunas and wellness products.
A Relaxing and Rejuvenating Experience
Modern saunas are a blessing for those looking to work up a sweat, relieve tension, and achieve a deep state of rejuvenating relaxation, exiting fresh and prepared for the challenges ahead.
However, the high heat of traditional saunas are intolerable for some, making the infrared sauna a preferred and arguably better alternative.
Harnessing the Healing Power of the Sun
Jacuzzi® infrared saunas produce the same infrared heat produced by the sun, providing safe radiant heat that is capable of penetrating deeper into muscles, joints and other tissues. According to The Sauna Life, this results in improved blood flow and circulation, translating to a myriad of potential health benefits.
Unlike traditional saunas, infrared models utilize specialized infrared lamps that warm the body directly vs simply warming the air around the body. By doing so, the heat can more readily and consistently penetrate tissues while operating at a much lower temperature than a standard sauna, making the experience more comfortable and enjoyable.
According to world-renowned Mayo Clinic, ‘Several studies have looked at using infrared saunas in the treatment of chronic health problems, such as high blood pressure, congestive heart failure, dementia and Alzheimer’s disease, headache, type 2 diabetes and rheumatoid arthritis, and found some evidence of benefit.’
The Wellness Benefits of Infrared Saunas and Detoxification
Metabolism and Weight Loss
According to the CDC, nearly 50% of all US adults have attempted to lose weight in the previous 12-month period, with more than 1.9 billion adults considered medically overweight. Studies published in the Journal of the American Medical Association have substantiated that the frequent use of saunas has a similar beneficial effect on the cardiovascular system as does running, gently boosting heart rate and accelerating the metabolism to burn more calories.
Muscle Relaxation, Recovery and Pain Relief
Muscle soreness, stiffness and pain affect tens of millions of individuals. Infrared saunas enhance circulation, improving the removal of metabolic waste while providing nourishing oxygen-rich blood to impacted tissues, helping them to recover faster. Similarly, deeply penetrating heat can soothe blood vessels and nerve endings to reduce joint pain, inflammation and muscle spasms. A 2015 study published in the US National Library of Medicine found that infrared sauna treatments resulted in ‘decreasing muscle soreness and increasing recovery from strength training sessions.’
Immune System Support
Increased body temperature can act as an artificial fever, the body’s own natural defense against various pathogens, including flu viruses. This mechanism can accelerate the immune response, and when coupled with increased detoxification and elimination of toxins through intense sweating, may improve recovery.
Detoxification
According to Dr. William Rea and Dr. Allan Lieberman, saunas can stimulate sweat glands, increase blood circulation and aid in the expulsion of toxins in the body, including but not limited to alcohol, nicotine, and heavy metals.
Reduce Fatigue and Eliminate Stress
A 2015 study published in the Journal of Internal Medicine looked at the effects of infrared dry sauna therapy on fatigue, finding that infrared sauna therapy resulted in a markable improvement in perceived fatigue. The researchers further noted that infrared saunas may be a ‘useful and safe’ treatment for those suffering from chronic fatigue syndrome.
Other Potential Benefits Include:
- Improving the appearance of cellulite
- Improving skin health
- Reducing stress and anxiety
- Lowering blood pressure
