Many people have used traditional saunas for relaxation but Infrared sauna is better and more tolerable. Rather than cooking yourself to death as is possible in the 200 degree convection environment of steam or hot rock saunas, Our infrared saunas literally manufacture body heat and charge your body with its own energy allowing your body all the energy it needs to detox at the cellular level and expelling those toxins through sweating. What is the difference between a hot rock or steam sauna and a far infrared sauna. The difference is in the science. In a dry, steam or hot rock sauna you are utilizing a principle called convection heat. Convection means that we heat the air and then the body. This heat penetrates the body 3 millimeters deep and of all the sweat released in your sauna session only 3% of your sweat contains toxins released. At temperatures of 180 degrees to 200 degrees in a convection environment is ideal for a mean dinner roast, maybe not as much for your health. In these dry saunas you are literally cooking yourself and some have died from staying in this style sauna for too long.
