what is a far infrared sauna?
The effectiveness of your chiropractic adjustments, acupuncture treatments, and Active Rehab program can be greatly enhanced by heat therapy provided by the Far Infrared Sauna. It produces a wavelength heat energy that penetrates 1.5 to 3 inches into the body tissue. This depth triggers mobilization of chemicals from subcutaneous fat storage and eliminates them through the sweat. In contrast to traditional high heat saunas, a worsening of symptoms during detoxification is largely avoided with the Far Infrared Sauna because chemicals are not pulled into the bloodstream as they make their way to the sweat glands. The Far Infrared Sauna is well tolerated by most people because it only raises the core body temperature to 100.4 F when set at 110-130 F. This heat stimulates the healing process and provides tangible results such as:
  • ​Reduces pain and muscle spasms
  • Reduces soreness through direct action on the nerves
  • Increases circulation and the flow of rich oxygenated blood to aching muscles and joints
  • Relaxes stiff muscles and joints for greater flexibility and range of motion of sprains and strains
  • Improves lymph flow and reduces swelling and inflammation
  • Raises the body temperature to stimulate the immune system
  • Burns calories
  • Helps reduce cellulite
  • Helps control weight
  • Reduces stress and fatigue
  • Deep cleans skin
  • Removes heavy metals and toxins​

how many sessions do I need?
The number of Far Infrared Sauna sessions required varies by results desired and general health status:

  • Stimulate the immune system
  • Stimulate weight loss

intense detoxification

  • Results "noticed" in 45-50 sessions
  • Provides support when the body is working too hard due to total toxic overload
  • Effective in ridding the body of drugs, heavy metals, pesticides, herbicides, and toxic environmental chemical residues​
Those who are the most overloaded with heavy metals and chemicals may not sweat for several treatments because the body has stored the toxins very deeply in an attempt to keep the body functioning. Hair tests are highly recommended before and throughout treatment to monitor the detoxification process and track level of harmful substances. Additionally, nutritional supplementation is highly recommended for those with the goal of intense detoxification.
