DISCLAIMER
Always consult a health care provider who is knowledgeable in sauna use before
using a sauna. Saunas are powerful devices and monitoring your progress by a
professional trained in sauna use is always advisable.
Sauna therapy can be dangerous and even fatal for some people under some
circumstances. If you are considering sauna therapy, you must first seek the
advice of your health care provider about sauna therapy and should also become
educated as to the proper use of sauna, preparations for doing sauna therapy,
as well as fully understanding the risks involved in sauna therapy.
Risks include, but are not limited to, cardiac failure, stroke, fainting, headache, nausea, weakness, rashes, hot flashes, dehydration, exacerbation of neurological symptoms, and even death. Variables of sauna therapy such as health condition of user, duration of sauna therapy, proper hydration, electrolyte and mineral balance and restoration must be properly considered and heeded before proceeding with sauna therapy.

SAUNA THERAPY
WHY SAUNA THERAPY?
Throughout history, humans have used sauna therapy, also known as hyperthermic
therapy, as a safe and powerful means of detoxification. Sauna therapy heats
the body, dramatically increasing blood-flow to the vital organs and skin,
unlocking even hard to reach toxins. Sweating during vigorous exercise can
raise the body temperature, but the “fight or flight” (sympathetic) state
decreases deep organ blood flow. When you work-out you sweat, but you don’t
detox much at all. Only in a “rest & digest” (parasympathetic) nervous state
will sweating result in detoxification. Like sweating in a sauna.
THE NEAR-INFRARED ADVANTAGE
Near infrared (NIR) light and heat herapy has the power to change your body
and mind. The beneficial effects positively impact acute and chronic
infections, skin rejuvenation, the immune system, aging and longevity, and
more.
DEEP TISSUE PENETRATION
Higher energy NIR light (versus lower energy far infrared) can penetrate up to
9 inches into the body reaching even internal organs. NIR light therapy
provides improved cellular healing and energy compared to far infrared
emitters, an important difference. Toxin protection, anti-inflammation and pain
relief are additional benefits.
PHOTOTHERAPY
Specific wavelengths of near infrared light are absorbed by mitochondrial
photoreceptor proteins, directly activating increased metabolism, healing and
detoxification processes in the cells and tissues.
SAFETY & EFFICIENCY
Incandescent near infrared bulbs are both ultra-low EMF and energy-efficient.
NIR bulbs provide the therapeutic effects inherent in the NIR band of natural
sunlight, but without the harmful ionizing UV radiation.
