What is Far Infrared Sauna?

At Serenity MedSpa, we also offer far infrared sauna with our weight loss program to help you lose the weight and to detox your body for a healthier living.

Far infrared saunas increase the body’s core temperature thus resulting in a much deeper, more detoxifying sweat from the cellular level of the skin where many toxins are housed. A far infrared sauna uses soothing dry far infrared heat that is well ventilated and extremely comfortable and relaxing.

What are the benefits of far infrared sauna?

Infrared light is part of the sun’s invisible spectrum of light that has the ability to penetrate the human tissue. However, unlike sunbathing, you can be exposed to far infrared heat for hours and it will never cause your skin to burn.

Far infrared sauna also offers the following health benefits:

• Detoxification: Detox from a Far Infrared Sauna is 7 to 10 times greater than a conventional sauna.
• Pain Relief: Relieve back, neck, and arthritis pain with far infrared sauna heat therapy.
• Weight Loss: A 30 minute far infrared sauna session can burn up to 200-600 calories! As the body works to cool itself while using a far infrared sauna, there is a substantial increase in heart rate, cardiac output and metabolic rate. Far infrared heat therapy raises core body temperature causing passive cardiovascular conditioning.
• Lowers Blood Pressure: The Solocarbon heaters in our far infrared sauna were used in a clinical study with the University of Missouri Kansas City in 2005 and were shown to lower blood pressure from a 30 minute sauna session three times a week. Repeated far infrared treatment improves impaired blood vessel functions in patients with high blood pressure, diabetes and high cholesterol.
• Improves Circulation: Heating of muscles with far infrared produces an increased blood flow level similar to that seen during exercise. Body temperature elevation also produces an increase in blood flow. Infrared heat assists in resolution of inflammatory infiltrates, edema and exudates.
• Skin Purification: Improve your skin’s appearance with regular use of far infrared sauna therapy. Open wounds heal quicker with reduced scarring. Far infrared heat therapy helps acne, eczema, psoriasis, burns and any skin lesions or cuts. It also reduces wrinkles, makes skin look radiant, firms and improves skin tone and elasticity.
