NEAR Infrared Sauna


NEAR Infrared light saunas use incandescent infrared heat lamps for heating. They emit mainly near infrared,some middle infrared and perhaps a tiny amount of far infrared energy. This type of sauna also provides warming and stimulating color therapy. The lights emit a small amount of red, orange and yellow visible light. These particular frequencies draw energy downward in the body and can assist the digestive and eliminative organs to some degree.
NEAR Infrared Sauna
While traditional saunas require high temperatures for copious sweating, infrared penetrates the skin and heats from the inside as well as on the skin. This means the air temperature in the sauna can remain cooler, yet one sweats plenty at this lower, more comfortable temperature. The infrared lamp sauna penetrates deepest due to the fact that the heat source is all concentrated in a small area, and not due to the frequencies of the energy used. The rays may penetrate up to three inches or so, so the air temperature can stay coolest of all the types of saunas with the same effectiveness. While some people like the intense heat of the traditional sauna, many find it difficult to tolerate, especially when feeling ill. Near infrared is an antioxidant nutrient, activates the cells, supports metabolic processes and decouples toxins from water molecules. Near infrared is helpful for wound healing and cellular regeneration as well. Near infrared frequencies can also act as amplifiers of other frequencies that are in the vicinity of the heat lamps.

THE BENEFITS OF NEAR INFRARED LAMP SAUNA THERAPY:

BOOSTS METABOLISM –The mitochondria (power plants of the cells) produce more ATP (energy currency of the cells) when NIR (near infrared rays) is introduced.

REDUCES BODY FAT – A group of 20 women riding stationary bicycles 3 times per week for 4 weeks exposed to NIR lost an average of 8 cm’s or 444% more as compared to 20 women doing the same exercise without NIR.

REDUCED VISIBLE CELLULITE – Cellulite is fat mixed with toxins that are trapped, in part due to an underactive circulatory system. Cellulite is visible, in part, due to weakened connective tissue. NIR helps rebuild connective tissue and has been shown to reduce cellulite.

INCREASED ENERGY – NIR activates the color sensitive chemicals (chromophores & cytochrome systems) to depths of 23 centimeters, stimulating the energy processes in cells.

DETOXIFY THE BODY – Increased blood circulation stimulates the sweat glands, releasing built-up toxins and waste. Sweat is the only way to remove certain carcinogenic PCBs, dioxins, phthalates, and volatile organic hydrocarbons. Heating the body powerfully shunts blood toward the skin to dissipate heat. This decongests the internal organs and greatly stimulates circulation. Sinuses, joints and many other tissues benefit greatly.

LESSENS JOINT AND MUSCLE PAIN & INCREASES FLEXIBILITY – Penetrating heat from NIR has long been proven to reduce pain and increase circulation to areas of discomfort. NIR has also been shown to significantly increase the range of flexibility.

Turnover of dead and damaged cells

Enhanced blood flow

Reduced wrinkles, scars, sun damage, stretch marks, age spots, fine lines

Smoothing of skin, reduced pore size and pits

Increased collagen, ellastin and essential skin protein production

Skin rejuvenation - Sauna use slowly restores elimination through the skin. The skin is the largest organ of the body and a major eliminative channel. In most people, it is inactive, congested and toxic. Sun exposure, use of synthetic clothing, bathing in chlorinated water and exposure to hundreds of chemicals damage the skin. Excessive sympathetic nervous system activity and emotions such as fear, anger and guilt cause blood to be withdrawn from the skin, contributing to inactivity of the skin.

ENHANCED SWEATING – Sweating in a sauna is a by-product of applying heat to the body. The sweating process gently and safely helps eliminate all heavy metals and toxic chemicals. Medical studies demonstrate that most toxins can be eliminated through the skin, relieving the burden on the kidneys and liver. Sweating increases dramatically in most people after several months of daily sauna use.
Sweating during exercise is not nearly as effective for detoxification because exercise activates the sympathetic nervous system. Sympathetic nervous activity inhibits toxin elimination.

EXERCISE BENEFITS – Saunas provide many of the benefits of exercise with much less expenditure of energy. These include enhanced circulation and oxidation of the tissues. Repeated sauna use can lower elevated blood pressure and improve the elasticity of the arteries. Saunas are most helpful for cardiovascular rehabilitation, arthritis, allergies, skin conditions and chemical sensitivity. WORKOUT IN LESS TIME – Due to increased production of ATP and quick dilation of the microcirculatory system, a person can lessen warm-up time and work at a higher level of exertion without increasing blood pressure.

IMPROVED CIRCULATION TO THE MUSCLES – NIR causes the release of nitric oxide. This stimulates vasodilatation of the microcirculatory system, bringing more blood to the muscles.

BETTER ENDURANCE – Muscle fatigue was reduced by up to 42.2% when exposing muscle to NIR.

INCREASED STRENGTH – Growth hormone release is induced by an increase in body temperature and not by exercise itself. Growth hormone increases muscle mass, calcium retention, and lipolysis (the breakdown of stored fat).

FEVER THERAPY (HYPERTHERMIA) FOR INFECTIONS – Raising body temperature powerfully assists the body to kill bacteria, fungi, parasites and viruses. Many people have a low body temperature and, for this reason, cannot get rid of chronic infections. Common sites of infections are the sinuses, ears, eyes, bladder, throat and intestines.

TUMORS, RADIATION POISONING AND MUTATED CELLS – Hyperthermia also helps kill other types of abnormal cells. Tumors, for example, tolerate heat poorly. Raising body temperature hastens their death. Though not a conventional method, hyperthermia is a well-researched therapy for cancer. Heat also disables or kills cells mutated by radiation or damaged by other toxins.

Inhibiting the sympathetic nervous system. This is tremendous benefit not offered by many therapies of any kind. It enables the body to relax, heal and regenerate itself much faster, causing recovery from many types of ailments.

Oxygenating and hydrating the cells and organs, and improving circulation.Enhanced DNA synthesis is muscle cells and fibroblasts

FASTER RECOVERY TIME – Certain tissue regenerating genes including integrins, laminin, gap junction proteins and kinesin proteins have shown a two- to five-fold increase upon exposure to NIR.

 TESTIMONIALS:

My name is William, I am 14 years old, and I have been struggling with acne for over a year.  I have breakouts on my face, back, arms, and chest.  My breakout are red swollen and painful.

I have tried several things to help me with my problem including over the counter creams, scrubs, proactive, and a dermatologist. These treatment helped my acne, but I still had new breakouts and I was feeling embarrassed about the way I looked.

Genea suggested that I try drinking distilled water and begin using the Near Infrared Sauna at Balanced Health and Fitness.  I began drinking the water right away.  After my first sauna session, I noticed that my skin felt better and the pours seemed tighter.  I continued drinking the water along with my clean diet.  After my 2nd visit I began to notice some of the large boils were becoming smoother, lighter. and less painful.  My skin was looking better.

It was clear after my 3rd visit that the sauna light treatment was helping my acne.  I am feeling better about the way I look. My large boils are starting to heal and my breakout are getting better.  I feel that anyone struggling with acne should try the Near Infrared Sauna at Balanced Health and Fitness and talk to Genea about their diet.  It really helped me.

Dear Family and Friends,

I have gone twice now to Balanced Health and Fitness at 4245 Capitola Road ste 104 to use her Near Sauna and love the results all ready. It gave me so much more energy and made my skin so much softer.

It also is such an effective detox. I love it!!

 I also wanted to share she does many other health treatments including Hair Analysis. Many Health conditions can be the results of a mineral imbalance like hair loss, anemia, thyroid conditions, skin rashes, emotional problems, allergies, depression, headaches etc.

She said she can even do it for folks who high light 2 weeks after their hair treatments. Her Hair Analysis is an invaluable screening tool and after she gets the results back she puts together a correct program of diet ad supplementation to be designed for each individuals specific needs.

Her name is Genea and her number is 234-2950.

Much love and light
~Tammie
