WHY ARE FAR INFRARED SAUNA SESSIONS
SO IMPORTANT FOR YOUR HEALTH?


We live in a world where we are overpowered by toxins and pollutants. Almost everything we eat, drink, or breathe has toxins and pollutants in it. As a result, our bodies are constantly trying to detoxify us, but because the input is so great, we simply cannot keep up. Therefore, we store a lot of toxins until we can dispose of them. But, if the toxins keep coming in faster than we can process them, our body eventually gets overpowered, shuts down, and we get sick. Fibromyalgia is caused by this type of toxic overload as are many other sicknesses and diseases.

Therefore, to stay healthy, we need to decrease our intake of toxins and process the toxins we do take in better. If we help our body get rid of toxins, then our liver, kidneys, and other organs have more time to dispose of the daily intake and we store less and less.

In an infrared sauna, the infrared rays penetrate up to 2" into our bodies, increasing blood circulation and cellular activity. By simulating a fever the immune system springs into action. Our heart rate increases and as we start to sweat, toxins are released from our cells and carried out of our body through the skin. This gives the heart and circulatory system an aerobic exercise as well. As muscles and joints are loosened up, we absorb more oxygen. This makes us feel refreshed and energized as aches and pains disappear. It has been said that to have a 30 minute sauna session once a day for a year will get rid of most of our accumulated toxins and pollutants and help our liver and kidneys keep up with the rest of the detoxification process.

Almost everyone I have spoken to who uses an infrared sauna regularly tells me the same story. More energy, greatly reduced pain, better looking skin, more flexible, loose muscles and a general feeling of health and vigor. The inflow of toxins is not going to stop unless we make some drastic changes to the world we live in. This is highly unlikely to happen in the near future. Therefore, the best we can do is to help our body detoxify so we can be healthier, live longer, and most importantly, enjoy a good quality of life.
