Treatment
Full Spectrum Infrared Sauna
Experience the deeply relaxing and therapeutic benefits of Infrared Sauna Therapy at our London Body Rooms in Norwood. Take some time for yourself and book a rejuvenating session to enjoy the numerous mind and body benefits of Infrared Saunas.
Compared to conventional steam saunas, Infrared Saunas operate differently, allowing for more efficient elimination of toxins and heavy metals from the body due to their advanced heating technology. While traditional saunas force the body to perspire, eliminating 97% water and 3% toxicity, the gentle heat of Infrared Saunas penetrates 3-4cm into the body’s tissue.
As a result, when using an Infrared Sauna, approximately 80% of what is eliminated is water and 20% is toxicity, allowing for a more effective and comfortable experience.
Infrared waves from within our Sauna have an impact on fat cells, where harmful substances such as cholesterol, heavy metals, and toxins can be stored. These fat cells are held together by ion bonds that can be disrupted by the vibrations produced by the infrared wavelengths. This process releases the harmful substances, which are then encapsulated by water molecules.
As the body naturally cools itself through sweating, these water molecules containing the toxins, cholesterol, and heavy metals are transported to the surface and eliminated from the body through sweat.
With our Infrared Sauna, you can experience a thorough cleansing process that goes beyond simply sweating in a standard sauna.
The near-infrared light can penetrate slightly below the surface of the skin, inducing sweating which can potentially enhance cell health, wound healing, collagen synthesis, and skin purification.
The medium-infrared light can penetrate deeper into the soft tissues of the body, improving blood flow and delivering oxygen to injured areas. This may aid in pain relief, as well as provide the benefits of a passive cardio workout by enhancing circulation.
The far-infrared light can penetrate the deepest into the fat cells, causing vasodilation. This process causes the fat cells to vibrate, leading to the elimination of toxins from the body. As a result, it offers the highest level of detoxification and can stimulate the metabolism to assist in weight loss, reduce blood pressure, and induce a profound sense of relaxation.
