Far Infrared
Heaters convert infrared light into heat, which is absorbed into the skin and increases the core body temperature by several degrees. This aids in killing off bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites. As the Far Infrared waves reach deep into the skin, they dilate blood vessels, increasing oxygen delivery to tissues and organs. The rays vibrate at a frequency which allows for cells to activate and strengthen, circulation to increase, and white blood cells to accelerate production.
Far Infrared therapy has healing and age-defying benefits due to its collagen-enhancing properties. It also regulates the body’s cortisol production, decreasing stress levels.
