Benefits of Infrared Saunas Over Hot-Rock Saunas Call 021 5567203

Since infrared saunas heat the body directly rather than heating the air, many proponents of infrared saunas claim that the heat penetrates the body deeper than the heat of traditional saunas, which use steam. This penetration leads to more sweat, which leads to a greater detoxification experience. It also can promote tissue stimulation, which can aid with problems like arthritis pain and tissue damage.
From a practical standpoint, some brands of infrared saunas can be portable, easier to clean, and quicker to use than traditional saunas. Some benefits of infrared saunas:
• Whereas traditional saunas are installed in a permanent location, infrared saunas can be set up in less than an hour, and then broken down and moved elsewhere.
• Infrared saunas don’t mildew, since they don’t use steam like traditional saunas
• Some brands of traditional saunas heat up faster (in 15 or so minutes) than traditional saunas (which can take 45 minutes or more)
• Infrared saunas operate at a lower heat than traditional saunas, which can be safer for people with cardiovascular problems – and more comfortable
• Infrared saunas usually use less electricity to heat than traditional saunas, making them cheaper to operate
