Far Infrared Radiant Sauna vs Conventional Saunas

The Electromagnetic spectrum includes gamma rays, X-rays, ultraviolet, visible, infrared, microwave, and radio waves. The only difference between these different types of rays is their wavelength frequency. Wavelength increases and frequency (plus energy and temperature) decreases from gamma rays down to radio waves. All these forms of rays travel at the speed of light. Infrared lies between the visible and microwave portions of the electromagnetic spectrum. The infrared waves have wavelengths longer than visible and shorter than microwaves and have frequencies which are lower than visible and higher than microwaves. Near infrared refers to the point of the infrared spectrum that is closest to visible light and far infrared (long wavelengths) refers to the part that is closer to microwave regions of the spectrum.

When an object is not quite hot enough to radiate visible light, it will emit most of its energy in the infrared, ie.: hot charcoal may not give off light, but does emit infrared rays which we feel as heat. We experience infrared every day. The heat that we feel from sunlight, a fire, a radiator is infrared. Although our eyes cannot see it, the nerves in our skin can feel it as heat.

Conventional saunas rely on indirect means of heat to heat the human body. First on heating air currents and then conduction which the hot air has direct contact with the skin to produce its heating of our bodies. In an Infra-Core infrared sauna, less than 20% of the infrared energy heats the air, leaving the remaining 80% to directly transform to heat within the human body. An Infra-Core sauna will warm its users to a more deeper level and more efficiently than a conventional sauna. This is what makes the infrared sauna more health beneficial compared to a conventional sauna. The Infra-Core sauna produces a long wave infrared also known as far infrared. Also ask for further details about Infra-Core adhesive-free far infrared sauna options. Get started today in a total mind, body, and soul revitalizing experience. "It's all about you... a healthy you."

Far-Infrared is a portion of the light spectrum. Most of the sun's energy is in the infrared range which is divided into three segments: far, middle and near. (Infrared is not to be confused with harmful UV.) Studies have shown that Far- Infrared is a necessary health supporting energy for humans. It is an invisible light which heats objects and living things directly without warming the surrounding air. (Therefore, the air in a Far-Infrared sauna is much cooler than in a conventional sauna.) Our bodies absorb Far-Infrared which creates a sensation of warmth and stimulates many of our biological systems. We generate Far-Infrared internally as our cells burn food to produce energy and heat and humans actually radiate this form of energy. We constantly send and receive it from each other. Far-Infrared emitting devices have a 30 year history of safe therapeutic applications including use in hospitals to warm premature babies.


Why Do We Use Long Wave Infrared?

There are three main sections of electromagnetic spectrum divided by wavelengths, measured in microns:

0.076 to 1.5 microns = close/near
1.5 to 5.6 = center/intermediate
5.6 to 1000 = long wave/far infrared

Humans, at normal body temperature radiate most strongly in the infrared at a wavelength of about 10 microns (micron is the term commonly used in astronomy for a micrometer or one millionth of a meter). The long wave infrared occurs just below "infra" to red light as the next lowest energy band. This level of light is not visible to the human eye, but we can feel this type of light as heat. The earth radiates rays in the 7 to 14 micron range with its peak output at 10 microns. The Infra-Core sauna heating ceramic emitters, which are 96% radiant efficient, have a majority of output from 5.6 to 25 microns. This output is evenly spread around the 9.3 micron pivot point of maximum human output. The energy output from the infrared sauna matches so closely to the human body's radiant energy, that our bodies take in close to 93% of the infrared waves that reach our skin.

The Infrared Radiant sauna has been greatly used in treating people who suffer from toxic load. These patients are very high in toxic loads, and the detoxification pathways in their bodies suffer. When one is able to reduce the toxins and heavy metals, their symptoms most often greatly improve. Many people unknowingly suffer from mercury poisoning, and other heavy metals such as lead and aluminum. The infrared sauna raises the core temperature which accelerates the removal of these toxins and also improves a number of areas in the immune system. Infrared helps purify our cells, expecially the cells in our fat where our bodies store waste and harmful toxins, such as cholesterol and heavy metals.

"A sauna used to be thought of as a luxury. But studies now confirm that diet and environmental chemicals cause 95% of cancers. Furthermore, as the first generation of man exposed to such an unprecedented plethora of daily chemicals, we have learned that stored or undetoxified chemicals can mimic any disease. 'Incurable' chronic diseases that were thought to have no known cause often disappear once toxic chemicals are gone. Since the far infrared sauna is the safest, most efficacious and economical way of depurating stored toxins, this makes it a household necessity."

Infra-Core Far Infrared Saunas "Optimization Cooling System"

With extensive research, the Infra-Core "Max" Far infrared saunas are designed with an "Optimization Cooling System" that enhances far infrared penetration and your entire detoxification process. Far infrared saunas operate at a much lower and comfortable temperature than conventional saunas. With far infrared penetrating the body directly and not the room, it is important for low wattage ceramic emitters to remain cool, for a long wavelength penetration throughout your entire sauna experience. With higher wattages, the surface temperature increases dramatically, offering the user a conventional heat rather than far infrared. In the Infra-Core "Premium" and "Max" series saunas, the "Optimization Cooling System" allows long wavelengths to be reached and maintained, offering higher levels of far infrared penetration and health benefits. This innovative design has allowed users to benefit from enhanced levels of far infrared. The Infra-Core "Optimization Cooling System" allows for a higher level in total revitalization of the mind, body and soul, than any other Far Infrared sauna.

All Infra-Core Saunas are available in two types of wood:

Poplar Wood - Also known as yellow poplar, tulip poplar and hickory poplar, poplar-trees, grow taller than any other US hardwood species. The yellow poplar grows quickly into a tall straight tree. It is found alone in open, rich, moist soil. Because of its fast maturity, the lumber from poplar is lightweight and soft for a hardwood. It is strong, durable and seasons well resisting warping once it is dried. Because the trunk has no limbs or branches, except at the very top, the wood has no knots.

Cedar Wood - Western red cedar is renowned for its high impermeability to liquids and its natural phenol preservative. It is ideally suited for exterior and interior use where humidity is high. The cellular composition of cedar – millions of microscopic air-filled cells – provides a high degree of insulation. Cedar’s natural oils are the reason it is decayresistant and rich in colour.

Contraindications: As there are certain illnesses or conditions which prohibit the use of Far Infrared saunas, always consult a physician before using a Far Infrared Sauna. Always be under the supervision of a physician while attempting to treat any illness, using Far Infrared Saunas. Results may vary per individual users.
