Traditional saunas heat the air around you. But infrared sauna does one better. They directly heat your body with infrared lamps powered by electromagnetic energy.
Don’t worry. We’ll explain that.
In essence, you enjoy a deeper penetration of heat for much longer in an infrared sauna than in a traditional sauna. The heat from an infrared sauna is simply more body-friendly. Perfect for you if the heat from a traditional sauna is just too much.
An experienced physical therapist, Vivian Eisenstadt, explains it better. “These saunas use infrared panels instead of conventional heat to easily penetrate human tissue, heating up your body before heating up the air.”
The best part is that infrared saunas do not have any negative health effects. It’s all benefits for you. None of the fallout, all of the fall in. Think about the ultimate sauna experience in terms of benefits plus no risk of adverse effects. This is it.
