Horizontal Infrared Saunas – Energy-Efficient and
Portable
Don’t have room for a full-sized sauna? Then have a look at
portable, horizontal
infrared saunas. These saunas represent the ultimate in portability
and won’t take up much space. They are the ideal solution if you don’t have
any room available to build a real home sauna or for someone living in an
apartment or condo. You may wonder if infra-red sauna therapy is safe for
you. The answer is a resounding yes! Here’s why:
Is it Safe?
Infrared heat is completely safe to use. Incubators in maternity wards use
infra-red heat to warm newborns. Physical therapists use the soothing rays
to loosen muscles and alleviate pain prior to therapy. In fact, you get all
the benefits of natural sunlight less the sun’s harmful ultraviolet
radiation, which makes exposure to the rays of a horizontal, infrared home
sauna not only safe, but beneficial to your health.
Enjoy the Health Benefits
The health benefits of infra-red saunas and heat therapy are numerous. Your
horizontal home sauna will help relieve stress and tension, relax sore
muscles and loosen stiff joints. Exposure to infrared heat is said to burn
300-600 calories per sweating session, making these types of saunas ideal
for weight management. Regular sweating also helps to detoxify your body and
improve a variety of skin conditions such as acne and eczema.
Lower Operating Temperature
Another advantage of infrared saunas is
the fact that they operate at much lower temperatures than conventional home
saunas. That makes it easier to breathe the air and the heat won’t dry out
your skin. Even better, in a horizontal sauna, only the body from the neck
down is exposed to the infra-red light. Another advantage is the deep skin
penetration during heat therapy. This warms your body directly, unlike
conventional home saunas using convection-type
sauna room heaters.
Our Advice
Horizontal infra-red home saunas are as energy-efficient to operate as a
small appliance. They plug into a standard 110 Volt outlet and take just 15
minutes to pre-heat. If you are interested in heat therapy at home, a
far-infrared portable home sauna is one
of the best ways to enjoy its therapeutic benefits without setting up a
full-sized sauna room.
