What does NIR light Therapy do?

We always recommend booking a PEMF session before your sauna to increase circulation, activate cell wall permeability and optimize your health care routine.

 

The use of the NIR Sauna is included in your VIDA monthly membership

Near infrared light saunas use incandescent infrared heat lamps for heating. The infrared lamp sauna penetrates deeper than other saunas (three inches) due to the fact that the heat source is all concentrated in a small area.

-Boots the metabolism: The mitochondria (power plants of the cells) produce more ATP (energy currency of the cells) when NIR (near infrared rays) is introduced.

-Reduces body fat

-Reduces visible cellulite

-Increases energy: NIR activates the color sensitive chemicals (chromophores & cytochrome systems) to depths of 23 centimeters, stimulating the energy processes in cells.

-Detoxifies the body: Increased blood circulation stimulates the sweat glands, releasing built-up toxins and waste. Sweat is the only way to remove certain carcinogenic PCBs, dioxins, phthalates, and volatile organic hydrocarbons. Heating the body powerfully shunts blood toward the skin to dissipate heat. This decongests the internal organs and greatly stimulates circulation. Sinuses, joints and many other tissues benefit greatly.

-Lessens joint and muscle pain and increases flexibility

-Rejuvenates skin: NIR increases collagen, eleastin and essential skin protein production. It reduces wrinkles, scars, sun damage, stretch marks, age spots, fine lines, and pore size.

-Simulates exercise: Saunas provide many of the benefits of exercise with much less expenditure of energy. These include enhanced circulation and oxidation of the tissues. Repeated sauna use can lower elevated blood pressure and improve the elasticity of the arteries. Saunas are most helpful for cardiovascular rehabilitation, arthritis, allergies, skin conditions and chemical sensitivity.

-Increased strenght: Growth hormone release is induced by an increase in body temperature and not by exercise itself. Growth hormone increases muscle mass, calcium retention, and lipolysis (the breakdown of stored fat).

-Fever therapy (hyperthermia for infections): Raising body temperature powerfully assists the body to kill bacteria, fungi, parasites, and viruses. Many people have a low body temperature, and for this reason, cannot get rid of chronic infections. Common sites of infections are the sinuses, ears, eyes, bladder, throat, and intestines.

-Tumors, radiation poisoning, and mutated cells: Hyperthermia also helps kill other types of abnormal cells. Tumors, for example, tolerate heat poorly. Raising body temperature hastens their death. Though not a conventional method, hyperthermia is a well-researched therapy for cancer. Heat also disables or kills cells mutated by radiation or damaged by other toxins. Inhibiting the sympathetic nervous system. This is a tremendous benefit not offered by many therapies of any kind. It enables the body to relax, heal and regenerate itself much faster, causing recovery from many types of ailments.
