D: Now you said this was a low heat sauna. How is that
different from a regular sauna?
High temperature saunas
A regular sauna operates at about 180 to 200 degrees
Fahrenheit. So when you go in from your very first breath you’re overheating
your lungs. Your heart starts to pump blood to the extremities to cool off the
core and eventually your sweat kicks in as a cooling mechanism. It shocks your
system.
And it’s the way heat therapy has worked for millennia. The
Scandinavians with their wood-fired saunas. The native North Americans with
their sweat lodges. The Romans would conquer entire areas back in England and the Sea of Galilee basically for the hot springs because of their healing properties.
Low temperature saunas
What this sauna allows us to do is to operate at just above
room temperature really at between 75 and 100 degrees Fahrenheit. We use
ceramic heaters. And the ceramic is operating at a wavelength they call the far
infrared wavelength. And it’s a toxin free pure way to get this infrared
wavelength heat.
Your body absorbs that heat perfectly just like it does from
the sun and you sweat very quickly without raising your core body temperature.
So the advantage of this lowers heat that you can tolerate (75 - 100 degrees
Fahrenheit) is that you don’t raise your core body temperature. You don’t
stress yourself. You’re not huffing and puffing with the instinctive desire to
get out of the room.
Instead you sit there like a warm day and you sweat
profusely. And this is what removes the toxins from the body.
