Most people who used a sauna before know that the heat from the sauna is soothing and therapuetic, it is no different
for infrared sauna. However, unlike traditional sauna which uses steam to heat its occupant, infra red sauna emits
far infrared radiant heat to directly heat the user.
At what temperature setting should I set the infrared sauna, you may ask. The most commonly recommended temperature
is between 120 and 130 F. Any temperature much higher than 130 degree fahrenheit is not recommended by manufacturers
of infrared sauna.
Where conventional saunas use hot steam air to transfer heat to the users, infrared saunas use far infrared heat
technology to heat users directly, so lower temperature is needed to do the same job. This is one of the reason
why infrared sauna is more tolerable and pleasant to its users. The lower, more pleasant temperature also provides
more health advantages besides letting you breathe easier while inside the sauna.
Traditional saunas make use of heaters to heat up the air and sometimes rocks inside the sauna, and in turn heat up
the body. In contrast, infrared saunas utilize different types of heaters that produce infrared wavelengths to heat
the body. The infrared rays are absorbed directly into the body resulting in sweating at much lower temperature than
traditional saunas.
Since infrared saunas require lower temperatures to operate than the traditional saunas, you will expect a significantly
lower heat bill than using conventional saunas. So an infrared sauna not only makes you healthier but is also
easier on your pocket.
