On March 24, 2009, Oprah featured another health breakthrough on her talk show. Along with Dr. Oz, Infrared Sauna Therapy was discussed and explained in some way. Infrared saunas are said to leave a person feeling invigorated and not exhausted compared to other conventional saunas. But what is the real difference between the two? What makes this type of sauna so special? Take a look at the benefits to be gained from this great treatment.

Detoxification

This is one of the broader benefits of treatment. Hyperthermia therapy is said to release many toxins stored in the tissues, as heat causes chemicals such as pesticides, heavy metals, and waste deposits to be easily released from the body. The same chemicals are released into the lymphatic fluid which, on the other hand, is expelled in the form of sweat.

Combined with nutritional supplements and balanced meals and also with the help of water, infrared therapy can consistently eliminate a wide range of toxins in the body. This would include, but is not limited to, compounds like PCV, mercury, lead, and even pharmaceutical drugs. Exercise alone cannot remove these types of chemicals.

Physical condition

This treatment can increase metabolism and cardiovascular conditioning. A 45 minute session will double blood flow to all tissues in the body and exercise the heart at the same time. This is becoming a good substitute for exercise for those who do not have time to exercise during the day. When it comes to losing weight, the treatment also helps burn calories fast. Accelerates weight loss, especially in a person who has a balanced diet and is already exercising.

A 45-minute session is said to burn 1800 calories a day, without exercise.
