Activated by heat, the FIR material of the sauna emits FIR energy, which is absorbed by the body and establishes a resonance, thereby instantly initiating cellular activities resulting in a better blood circulation and overall improved metabolism.
The FIR waves stimulate the release of Nitric Oxide (NO) from cells which relaxes and expands the circulatory system for more efficient circulation and oxygenation of all body’s tissues and cells.
Because FIR sauna’s heat speeds up the metabolic process of vital body systems, a substantial caloric loss may also result. FIR ray energy is a form of sun light energy minus the skin damaging UV. FIR is capable of penetrating, refracting, radiating and reflecting.
The fact that FIR penetrates deep into body’s tissues explains its high rate of absorption.
The thermal effect within the tissues deep layers contribute to dilation of blood vessels and capillaries, resulting in a better blood circulation. The produced heat helps the body rid of toxins and metabolic wastes through sweating.
The FIR waves are not blocked by the air molecules and can penetrate a couple of inches into the body. While the person feels quite warm and perspires, the skin is not hurt by hot air found in conventional heat therapy devices.
