WHY FAR INFRARED SAUNA THERAPY (FIR)?

Carriage House Medicine provides far infrared sauna therapy to our patients as a relaxing and comfortable space for detoxification, stress relief, illness recovery, and more. Rather than using air to conduct heat, an FIR sauna uses direct infrared light to penetrate an individual’s body 2-3” deep with soothing energy. This makes the FIR sauna a comfortable place in which to sit while increasing circulation and nourishing damaged tissues.
 

The Healing Power of Far Infrared

Detoxification

Far infrared sauna therapy is renowned for its detoxifying properties. Sweating is a natural mechanism for eliminating toxins from the body. FIR saunas induce a more vigorous sweat, helping to expel heavy metals, pollutants, and accumulated toxins. This process can leave you feeling refreshed and rejuvenated.

Relaxation and Stress Reduction

Stepping into an FIR sauna is like entering a cocoon of tranquility. The soothing, radiant heat promotes relaxation and helps reduce stress by calming the nervous system. It’s a sanctuary for those seeking respite from the demands of modern life.

Pain Relief

FIR heat deeply penetrates muscles and joints, offering natural relief from aches and pains. It can be particularly beneficial for individuals with conditions like arthritis, muscle stiffness, and chronic pain.

Improved Circulation

FIR sauna therapy enhances blood flow and circulation, promoting cardiovascular health. This increased circulation can help with issues such as hypertension and vascular diseases.

Skin Health

FIR saunas can stimulate collagen production and improve skin tone and texture. Regular sessions may contribute to a radiant complexion and reduced signs of aging.

Incorporating FIR Sauna Therapy into Your Wellness Routine

To fully embrace the benefits of far infrared sauna therapy, it’s essential to make it a regular part of your wellness routine. A consistent practice can amplify the positive effects, promoting long-term health and vitality.

Sessions typically last between 15 to 45 minutes, and the frequency can vary depending on your goals and tolerance. Whether you prefer daily sessions for relaxation or weekly detoxification rituals, FIR sauna therapy is adaptable to your unique needs.

How the FIR Sauna works

The direct heat provided by the FIR sauna is tuned to the human body’s radiant energy, allowing the sauna user to absorb as much as 93% of the infrared waves reaching the skin. This differs from a conventional sauna, which uses high temperatures to heat up your body indirectly. A FIR sauna is usually set around 100-125°F versus the 180-220°F in a conventional sauna.

Far infrared sauna therapy is relaxing, comfortable, and allows for easy breathing. This means you can use the FIR sauna longer to enjoy the soothing warmth and reap the health benefits. These include increased sweat production, supporting cardiovascular health and enabling detoxification. Additionally, an FIR sauna can assist in weight loss and cellulite reduction – a single session can burn up to 600 calories. The cardiac and calorie-burning benefits are beneficial to those physically unable to exercise due to injury or illness.
