What exactly is infrared heat?  Infrared heat is a form of radiant energy that directly heats objects by invisible waves of light, rather than heating the air in between the heat source and the objects.   For instance, the sun doesn't give you direct heat.  The sun actually heats the earth and the earth reflects the heat which then heats the air you feel.  That's why you feel cooler when a cloud covers the sun.  Your heat source is being blocked, and now it's unable to heat the earth, making it impossible for thee sun to warm you.  So, that's the reflecting heat we sometimes enjoy and dislike.  Infrared heat is being generated by our body  at a constant rate.  Have you ever held your hand next to your face or had somebody else hold their hand near your face when your eyes were closed, or in the dark?  You know, just to see if you can feel the heat from their hand?  Or, when you place your palms close to each other, and you feel that, almost instant heat?  That's infrared heat!   With our portable far infrared saunas, you get to enjoy that comfortable heat.  The heat you love when you're trying to catch some rays from the sun, but without the harmful rays.  Infared energy is good for the body and skin and it's not discomforting at all.  Ultra-violet rays, like those from the sun are the harmful rays that aren't good for your skin.  Infared energy from far infrared saunas also remove toxins from your body giving you great skin, it improves circulation, burns calories, relieves chronic pain, arthritis, bursitis, fibromyalgia, back pain, and more.  It also increases your heart rate, cardiac output and metabolic rate.  There are many things infra red sauna rooms can do for you and your family.  If you need some information on infared saunas, you may call us at 2516234999, or email us at customerservice@saunabliss.com.
