• Sweat and Far Infrared Saunas - Here's the Skinny...


    by Pertti Olavi Jalasjaa

    For whatever reason, most people feel uncomfortable talking about perspiration. Nevertheless, the word sweat regularly finds its way into casual conversations. For example, it’s not unusual to hear someone remark that he or she “sweated” over an academic assignment, “worked up a sweat” on the tennis courts, or “lost a pint of sweat” while awaiting an important decision. But these are simply colloquial expressions that many of us utilize to make a point about our mental or physical stress or exertion related to a particular undertaking or event. When we use them, we are not specifically addressing our perspiration. After all, to do so, polite society decrees, would be in poor taste.

    And yet much could be gained if people felt free to discuss the natural biological process of perspiration without fear of judgment or reproach. Open discourse on the subject could very well lead to greater public understanding of the high value of perspiration and, in turn, put many people on the road to better health.

    It would also likely greatly increase public interest in far infrared saunas.

    For years, health professionals and health-conscious laymen have been praising far infrared saunas for their astounding ability to make people sweat copiously and comfortably. When we perspire in a far infrared sauna, we help our bodies rid themselves of the countless toxins like mercury, lead, cadmium and other contaminants that have accumulated within us over time. As well, by intensely sweating in a far infrared sauna we benefit our hearts, lungs, kidneys and other organs that are essential to our survival. Far infrared sauna bathing has also been proven to promote pain relief, muscle relaxation, and emotional tranquility.

    For people suffering from certain skin diseases, far infrared sauna bathing can be particularly therapeutic. As the far infrared heat induces an increase in blood circulation to the skin, the body’s defence against chronic skin conditions like acne, eczema and psoriasis is considerably bolstered. As well, thorough sweating helps unclog the skin of whatever unhealthy remnants of soap, lotions, deodorants or makeup may be unnecessarily lodged in its pores. Dead skin cells are also effectively flushed away by a good sweat in a far infrared sauna.

    Increased blood flow and decreased toxins and foreign material in our skin mean more natural nutrients and fewer reasons for irritations and disease. It all adds up to cleaner, healthier and better-looking skin. Elasticity, texture, tone and color can all noticeably improve after just a few sessions in a far infrared sauna. These benefits are available even if your skin has suffered harsh damage from excessive exposure to the sun.

    You don’t have to talk about perspiration if you don’t want to. But, at the very least, it’s time you started thinking seriously about your sweat. If you live a mostly sedentary lifestyle and therefore don’t perspire much on a regular basis, you must take action for the sake of the health of your heart, lungs, skin and other vital organs. Discover the myriad benefits of owning and using a far infrared sauna. Countless experts agree that it’s your best setting for healthy sweating.
