Burn calories with an infrared cabin
- A normal session in an infrared cabin lasts 20 – 30 minutes.
- You can increase the session time as you get more experience.
- It is best to let your body decide and avoid excess heating.
- Experienced people can remain in the cabin for up to 40 minutes, depending, of course, on the set temperature, and so burn up to 1200 calories.
- The normal burning lasts for half an hour and amounts to 500 to 750 calories.
- The number of calories that a person of 75kg can burn for various sports is shown for comparison in the table below:
| SPORTS | BURNING |
| Intensive Rowing | 607 |
| Running at high tempo | 593 |
| Swimming, freestyle | 312 |
| Jogging | 298 |
| Tennis | 265 |
| Cycling (calm tempo 15km/hr) | 225 |
| Walking (5km/hr) | 150 |
Hydration
Just like after a traditional sauna it is necessary to drink enough water or fresh fruit juice to compensate for the fluids lost during and after using the Infrared cabin. The toxic ballast that is sweated out together with surplus fat is then replaced with fresh fluid which helps cell replacement and the build-up of tissue.
Detoxification and Far Infrared Therapy
When toxic gases such as sulphur dioxide and carbon dioxide or toxic substances such as lead, mercury, or chlorine meet large water molecules, water clusters encapsulate them. Where these toxins accumulate, blood circulation is blocked and cellular energy is impaired. Mercury detoxification begins when a 10 micron Far Infrared Therapy wave is applied to these large water molecules and the water begins to vibrate. This vibration reduces the ion bonds of the atoms that are holding together the molecules of water. As the vibration continues, breakdown of the water molecules occurs and encapsulated gases and other toxic materials are released. Scientists in Japan report that in the Far Infrared Therapy wave treatment of clogged capillary vessels, a similar process occurs: heat expands the capillaries from Far Infrared Therapy and then initiates the process to dissolve hidden toxins. Far Infrared Therapy also helps to improve nervous disorders, digestive disorders, weight loss and normalize blood pressure.
Far-Infrared Cellular Purification
An infrared therapy clinic in Japan has done extensive research on the uses of Far Infrared Therapy or Infrared Therapy or Infrared Light Therapy. In the book, “The Science of Far Infrared Therapies,” by Toshiko Yamazaki M.D. it explains that one of the reasons FIR (Far Infrared Therapy) has beneficial results in a variety of illnesses is the ability of FIR waves to remove toxins with mercury detoxification, which is often at the core of many health problems. Since humans are bio-accumulators, numerous toxins that disturb natural body healing and cannot be removed immediately after entry are stored in our bodies and prevent future natural body healing.
What is Far-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, thus warm your body from your head, the infrared heat rays warm your body directly with panels at rear front and behind legs. This allows an in-depth heat in a more pleasant temperature of 110-150ºF (43 – 66ºC), thus providing more health benefits and a highly enjoyable and comfortable environment.
How does it benefit us?
Our body reacts to the increased heating through the natural cooling process of perspiring. Through the perspiration process, acid and waste residue like toxins, sodium, alcohol, nicotine, cholesterol and the potentially carcinogenic heavy metals are removed from the cells (especially zinc, lead, nickel, cadmium, etc). As well as the pores of our skin opening and discharging waste products , the skin sheds any old skin cells, leaving it glowing and immaculately clean, with improved tone, elasticity, texture and colour.
