Those who have been unsuccessful in dieting often times are toxic and are successful after using an Infrared Sauna. It is a great means of exercise for those who cannot physically exert themselves.

Some weight loss authorities believe that our bodies use fat to dilute toxins. As an Infrared Sauna is an unsurpassed expeller of toxins, it is also a great way to get rid of any fat our bodies are using to dilute toxins we are storing.

How does this help the immune system?

A typical sauna session will cause a brief (and minor) increase in body temperature, identical to the body’s defense mechanism producing an artificial fever to fight against bacteria, microbes, and infection. The beneficial side effect of this induced temperature increase is immune system improvement resulting from increased production of white blood cells (leukocytes) by your bone marrow and killer T cells by your thymus. When toxins are present in our body blood circulation is blocked and cellular energy is impaired. The body’s immune system is inhibited, which makes it difficult for the body to fight disease.

How does an Infrared Sauna remove toxins from the body?

When toxins are present in our body blood circulation is blocked and cellular energy is impaired. The body’s immune system is inhibited, which makes it difficult for the body to fight disease. When the infrared heat is applied the large water molecules in our bodies that contain toxic gases like sulphur dioxide, carbon dioxide, lead , mercury and chlorine vibrate and are broken down. The encapsulated toxic materials and gases are then released. Infrared heat is often used in the treatment of clogged capillaries, the heat expands the capillaries and skin pores to expel the toxins from the body. One can tolerate and even enjoy Infrared heat for longer periods of time than the heat from a Hot tub or steam bath, therefore the sweating from infrared heat promotes the most beneficial detoxification.

How does the Sauna prevent heart disease?

Sauna treatments have a stimulating effect on the cardiovascular system. The increased blood circulation, but not blood pressure, stimulates the tiny blood vessels in the skin to expand accommodating the increased blood flow. The increased heart rate has the same positive benefit as much tedious strenuous exercise, while you are relaxing in your very own spa.

How does a Sauna reduce stress and fatigue?

High levels of stress put continuous strain in the autonomic nervous system and are one of the elusive causes of many chronic diseases. Heat therapy loosens the muscles and relieves muscular aches and pains. By facilitating the expansion of capillary vessels, thereby improving circulation, physical stress levels are reduced. The infrared rays also clear away build up of lactic acid and carbon dioxide around the muscles, by removing the toxins, muscle and joint stiffness disappears. Besides these physiological effects, a sauna session also contributes to stress reduction simply by providing a peaceful and relaxing environmental away from it all.

Does a sauna help my skin?

Infrared Heat penetrates deeply into the layers of skin. Profuse perspiration removes the deep impurities and toxins, and the increased blood circulation increase the skin tone leaving the skin glowing. Studies concluded that Infrared Heat has been beneficial in the healing of acne, burns, rashes, cuts, eczema and other skin conditions. Profuse perspiration and increased blood circulation deeply cleanses the skin.

How can an Infrared Sauna possibly offer all these benefits?

During a 30 minute session you can relax and enjoy music while your body is working to generate perspiration. The infrared sauna therapy offers in depth heat in a pleasant atmosphere thus offering health advantages. Each session allows the body to detoxify, ease muscle pain by increasing circulation, burns fat, gives you a cardiovascular workout, reduces cellulite and regains skin glow.

I purchased a steam shower, three toilets, pedestal sink and a vanity for up dates to our B&B in Kelowna. Found the products on line. Found Aaron to be very helpful in making selections to fit our rooms. The Eago products are top quality, have not had a clog in any toilet and do not have to flush the dual flush toilets twice. The steam shower was a little tricky to assemble but Aaron gave excellent detailed technical support. The shower enclosure is all tempered glass and very good quality. I sure recommend these Eago products. I can hardly wait until our B&B suite is not booked so that I can use the shower myself. Dealing with Perfectbath.com was problem free.
