Infrared Sauna Therapy
At Farnborough Physio we offer Far Infrared Sauna Therapy. Far infrared saunas provide large wavelength and invisible light energy which penetrate deep within the body, unlike other types of sauna which create surface heat. When infrared light penetrates our skin, it causes the molecules to vibrate which produces heat causing a rise in our bodies core temperature. These rays deeply penetrate the skin helping our bodies to metabolise toxins, restore your cells and ease tension in the body. Unlike traditional saunas, which heat the air around you, this is considered a more efficient and comfortable way to experience the benefits of sweating. The infrared sauna at Farnborough physio has 7 x ceramic Surround infrared Far light heaters (including 2 x front elements) and 1 x Surround Nano Carbon Far infrared foot panel heater.
Benefits of Infrared Sauna Therapy
- Relaxation and stress relief: The heat generated by the infrared sauna can help relax muscles, reduce tension, and promote a sense of calmness, leading to reduced stress levels.
- Pain relief: Infrared sauna therapy has been found to be effective in reducing chronic pain, particularly in conditions such as arthritis, fibromyalgia, and other musculoskeletal disorders.
- Detoxification: Infrared saunas promoting sweating therefore help to flush out toxins and impurities.
- Improved circulation: The heat from the infrared sauna causes blood vessels to dilate, which can increase blood flow and improve overall circulation.
- Skin health: The increased blood flow and sweating can help to improve skin health, by flushing out toxins and improving oxygen and nutrient delivery to the skin.
- Weight loss: Infrared sauna therapy may aid in weight loss by increasing metabolism, burning calories, and promoting sweating, which can lead to the elimination of excess water weight.
Contraindications to infrared sauna therapy: pregnancy, heart conditions (including defibrillator and pacemaker), acutely unwell, fever, bleeding disorders.
