Our skin is our largest and major organ of elimination however many people do not sweat on a regular basis. This is why repeated use of a Far Infrared sauna, and it’s gentle warming heat, promotes perspiration and slowly releases toxins via skin elimination, which can help reduce your toxic load quite significantly. 

The use of sweating as a form of detoxification is downplayed by modern medicine, yet it has been valued as a form of cleansing since ancient times. Traditional saunas use steam and a great deal of uncomfortable hot air to promote a heavy sweat. 

FIR is a great alternative and option which can significantly expedite the detoxification process. It heats your body’s tissues several inches deep, which can enhance your natural metabolic processes. It also improves circulation and helps oxygenate your tissues. 

The difference between an Infrared Sauna and the traditional Finnish-style saunas is that the latter heats you up from the outside in. Traditional saunas only heat the surrounding air. Whereas Far Infrared saunas heat you from the inside out, raising your body’s core temperature resulting in a deeper, more cleansing sweat. 

It’s said that using an infrared sauna will cause you to produce a sweat that is composed of 20% toxins, compared to only 3% when using a traditional sauna.

As your body temperature rises, it will automatically perspire to release salty liquid from your sweat glands to help cool you down. This is controlled by your autonomic nervous system. However, certain emotions, such as anxiety, anger, embarrassment, or fear, can prompt you to sweat more. 

Since exercise raises your body temperature, sweating associated with exercise is a sign that you’re exerting yourself and enjoying the many benefits that exercise offers. However, sweating in and of itself may also be beneficial.

Far Infrared sauna therapy increases blood and lymphatic circulation while opening up the skins pores in order to eliminate excess dietary, environmental and metabolic acids from the body’s tissues. Far Infrared sauna therapy is also a passive form of exercise which will cause you to profusely sweat aiding in the removal of any latent tissue acid.
