5 Incredible Benefits of Using an Infrared Sauna

June 4, 2018 by

thyroid-px-sauna-2

Infrared sauna therapy differs from traditional sauna therapy because it uses infrared light waves to produce heat.  It is ideal for people who cannot tolerate the humidity of traditional saunas. Innovative Medicine in Lafayette, IN uses the technology to treat patients who would benefit from deep tissue penetration, pain relief, improved cardiovascular health, and detoxification.

The waves created by infrared light positively affect the body’s tissues.  They are capable of reaching below the skin’s surface. The treatment is effective in generating mitochondrial activity and promoting heat circulation. If you are wondering if the therapy would help you, here are the top seven benefits you can experience:

Detoxification

The therapy causes dilation of your blood vessels, which increases blood circulation.  As your circulation increases, your body’s waste removal systems can work more effectively.  Outside of circulatory benefits, as you sweat, toxins are purged from your system.

Improved Skin Tone And Texture

The increased circulation improves the ability of oxygen and nutrients to reach your skin.  The result is better collagen production.  Increased collagen manifests as firmer more toned skin with reduced fine lines and wrinkles.

Improved Cardiovascular Function

Other than the benefits we spoke of above, the improved circulation promoted by infrared sauna therapy can help lower blood pressure.  This is especially beneficial to persons such as diabetics or smokers with elevated cholesterol levels.  Improvements in blood pressure lead to better overall cardiovascular function.

Pain Control

Persons who suffer from chronic pain can use infrared sauna therapy as a method of pain control and help to improve:

  • Stiffness
  • Chronic pain
  • Fatigue
  • Inflammation

Relief from pain can also help to elevate your mood and lessen pain-related anxiety.  It is important to note that the best results are achieved with at least five days per week of treatment. Optimal results begin to be experienced about four weeks into treatment.

Weight Loss

Body weight and body fat can both decrease with regular sauna therapy over the course of several weeks.  It is believed that the reduction is caused by the additional calories burned while in treatment. The therapy may also help balance ghrelin levels in patients who are obese causing them to feel less hungry.

The benefits of Infrared sauna therapy are numerous and can work at varying levels to improve multiple aspects of your health and aesthetics. For more information on the treatment and to see if you are a good candidate, please contact the experts at Innovative Medicine in Lafayette, IN today.
