infrapunasauna

Infrapunasauna, also known as infrared sauna, is a type of sauna that uses infrared light to heat the body directly. Unlike traditional saunas that heat the air around you, infrapunasauna emitters generate infrared heat that penetrates the skin, promoting a therapeutic warmth. The temperature in an infrapunasauna is typically lower than in a traditional sauna, usually ranging from 40-60 degrees Celsius (104-140 degrees Fahrenheit). This lower temperature can be more comfortable for individuals who find high heat difficult to tolerate.

The infrared heat is believed to work by increasing blood circulation and promoting sweating. Proponents suggest that this can lead to various benefits, such as muscle relaxation, pain relief, and detoxification. Some users report feeling a sense of well-being and stress reduction after a session. The infrared spectrum used in these saunas is often divided into near, mid, and far infrared, with each potentially offering slightly different therapeutic effects, though scientific research in these specific distinctions is ongoing.

Infrapunasauna cabins are usually constructed from wood, similar to traditional saunas, and contain infrared heating elements. Users sit or lie down inside the cabin for a set period, typically 15-30 minutes. As with any health-related practice, it is advisable to consult with a healthcare professional before using an infrapunasauna, especially if you have any pre-existing medical conditions or concerns.
