     # What is Infrared heat?

Infrared heat is simply a form of energy that is directly transmitted onto objects because of its specific wavelength. It has nothing to do with ultraviolet light which gives you sunburn and damages your skin.

Where conventional saunas transfer heat by circulating hot air and steam, thus warm your body from the outside of the skin, the infrared heat rays penetrate your body directly. This allows for more in-depth heating at a more pleasant temperature of 110-150°F(43 - 66°C), thus providing more health benefits in a highly enjoyable and comfortable environment. Conventional saunas need high air temperatures to pull impurities from the body, but infrared heated saunas can directly penetrate up to 45 mm inside the body. Impurities, therefore can be pushed out using lower and more comfortable temperatures.

As the body temperature rises by the infrared heat, perspiration occurs and blood circulation increases. The muscles and organs are stimulated and toxic waste (fat, heavy metals and other toxic materials) are removed from your body through perspiration.
