What is Infrared Heat?

Infrared sauna blankets are portable saunas that use infrared rays to directly heat the body, unlike traditional saunas that heat the surrounding air. Our blankets emit far-infrared rays which are known for their deep-penetrating heat, effectively warming the body from the inside out.

Infrared therapy is widely used in the fields of medicine, dentistry, veterinary medicine, and in autoimmune diseases, to name a few. The therapy is safe and natural, which enables it to be offered as an alternative treatment for various health conditions like muscle pain, joint stiffness, and arthritis, to name a few.

Infrared therapy has many roles in the human body. These include detoxification, pain relief, reduction of muscle tension, relaxation, improved circulation, weight loss, skin purification, lowered side effects of diabetes, boosting of the immune system and lowering of blood pressure.

Health Benefits of Infrared Heat

  • Cardiovascular Health: Infrared therapy offers significant benefits for cardiovascular health by increasing the production of nitric oxide, a crucial molecule for blood vessel health. Nitric oxide helps relax arteries, prevents blood clotting, and combats free radicals, reducing oxidative stress and regulating blood pressure. Improved blood circulation from nitric oxide delivery enhances oxygen and nutrient supply to injured tissues, speeding up wound healing and tissue regeneration, while reducing inflammation and pain.
  • Pain and Inflammation: Infrared therapy is a safe and effective treatment for pain and inflammation. It penetrates deep into the skin, reaching muscles and bones to improve circulation and deliver oxygen and nutrients to injured tissues. This process promotes healing, eases pain, reduces inflammation, and protects against oxidative stress.
  • Muscular Injuries: Infrared therapy enhances mitochondrial activity within cells, promoting the growth and repair of muscle cells and tissues. This accelerates the healing process after muscle injuries.
  • Detoxification: Infrared therapy, especially through saunas, aids in detoxification, which strengthens the immune system and supports biochemical processes for proper digestion. By raising the body’s core temperature, infrared saunas facilitate detoxification at the cellular level.
