Far-infrared  & Peat

 

 

 

Infrared light (experienced as heat*) is the natural radient heat emitted by the sun. Indeed according to the 'University of Tennessee'  the sun gives off half of its total energy as infrared (IR), and much of its visible light is also absorbed and re-emitted as IR. Lying just beyond the visable end of the electromagnetic spectrum scientists have classified them as: near Infrared, 120 to 400 THz (2,500 to 750 nm) ; Mid infrared, from 30 to 120 THz (10 to 2.5 μm) and far-infrared, from 300 GHz (1 mm) to 30 THz (10 μm). 

 

Specifically Far infrared (FIR), sometimes known as Biogenetic Rays, are considered the most significant and beneficial infrared frequencies for our wellbeing, having the ability to penetrate all layers of the human physical body, deep into the inner-most regions of the tissues, muscles and bone. In particular technology such as specialty lamps and saunas, which deliver pure FIR (eliminating completely the near and mid infrared bands), have become a safe, effective, and widely used source to  attain health benefits from its effects.

Far-infrared Sweat Therapy

 

Far infrared (FIR) saunas are able to increase sweat volume by 2-3% when compaired to traditional saunas while operating at a significantly cooler temperture range of 110F to 130F v 180F to 235F. Not only does this facilitate the ablility to stay in the sauna for longer periods of time but it also enables easier breathing and creates a more soothing, stimulating and detoxifying environment, thereby increasing the therapeutic effects. 

 

Gently heating the body from within instead of heating the air, FIR, has the ability to penetrate the surface of the skin up to 50mm (2 inches), giving the body overall radient warmth. Its absorption has the capacity to activate, revilatise, regenerate, reactivate develope and strenghten various organs and supporting systems.

 

This works through: - 

1. Stimulating the micro circulation encouraging the cellular uptake of nutrients and oxygen while removing toxic waste.

2. Increasing metabolic uptake and improving energy and vitality

3. Stimulating the immume system.

 

Is it safe?

​

FIR warmth is very safe. Indeed it is because of its ability to increase the bodys temperature at a more gradual pace, and the gentle response effect that has on increasing the heart rate, it is often used to rehabilitate people with congestive heart failure. Primarily this is because it is able to deliver a passive cardiovascular conditioning workout without putting strain on the heart: the same principle is used to warm premature babies. Additionally there are no magnetic forces sufficient to influence the functioning of a pacemaker and if you have a replacement hip/knee/metal plates FIR waves reflect off these types of prosthese therefore no discomfort should be experienced. Even silicone implants, which normally would only break down at around 200 (°C),  are safe as the cabin max temp is only around 60(°C).

​

Reported benefits include:

 

  + Reduce Stress

  + Depression & mood reduction

  + Reduced scar tissue 

  + Improved circulation 

  + Detoxification of harmful chemicals

  + Weight loss (burns approximately 600-800 calories a session)

  + Pain relief

  + Blood pressure reduction

  + Cardiocascular conditioning (heart & blood vessel support)

  + Better sleep pattern

  + Kills bateria and viruses

  + And much more  ..........

​

Experience under the guidance of a qualified therapist sessions are 30 or 60 minutes and can be taken alone or with a friend. The sauna also contains a full spectrum light** and a radio/cd palyer so reading material and your own choice of music is most welcome. Bathing wear or loose cotton clothing is desirable. Au-natural is strickly prohibited without prior agreement.
