Saunas and steam bath have been used for centuries by various cultures around the world. In the past few years, sweat therapy has been researched and several papers on this subject have appeared in the scientific journals. Through this research, it has been shown that saunas greatly assist inn the elimination of accumulated toxins. Toxic metals, including mercury as well as organic toxins and pesticide residues are excreted in high quantities in sweat during proper hyperthermic therapy sessions. Heat causes toxins to be released from cells. the toxic molecules will then reside in the lymph fluid. Since sweat is manufactured from the lymph fluid, toxins presently in the fluid will exit the body through he sweat. Because the liver and kidneys are not involved in this process, these organs are largely unburdened . Radiant heat is a form of energy that heats objects directly through a process called conversion. This means that you are warmed without having to heat the air in between you and the heat source. The Swedish National Institute of Radiation Protection has concluded that the heaters in Infrared Thermal Systems are not dangerous. This system uses infrared radiant energy to directly penetrate the body’s tissues to a depth of over 1.5”. The infrared energy applied in the Infrared Thermal system may induce up to 2-3 times the sweat volume of a traditional hot-air sauna while operating at a significantly cooler air temperature range of 110 to 130 F. There is a heating effect deep in the muscular tissues and the internal organs. The body responds to this deep-heating effect via an hypothalamic induced increase in both heart volume and rate. This beneficial heart stress leads to a sought after cardiovascular training and conditioning effect. Medical researches confirm that the use of a sauna provides cardiovascular conditioning as the body works to cool itself and involves substantial increases in heart rate, cardiac output and metabolic rate.
