Infrared sauna technology:
Your key to greater well-being

What is infrared radiation?

The infrared radiation generated in heat cabins is similar to the heat emitted by the human body. It is also comparable to natural solar heat. A large part of the solar spectrum consists of infrared energy, which can be absorbed by the organs and tissues of the body in a selected dosage. This form of heat has been proven to be beneficial to health over many years and is often used as a supportive method in the wellness sector.

How the infrared sauna works

In an infrared sauna cabin, more than 80% of the infrared radiation energy generated directly heats the skin and underlying tissue. The air temperature in the cabin remains pleasantly low (40-60 °C), which makes it particularly suitable for people with circulatory problems. This targeted heating increases perspiration without the need for a high room temperature.

Health benefits

Intense heating not only promotes sweating, but also helps to flush unwanted substances out of the body. Sweat analyses show that 80-85% of sweat produced during infrared sweating consists of water, while conventional sweating has a water content of 95-97%. The remaining portion of infrared sweat contains valuable substances such as fats, cholesterol, and heavy metals, which are not present in conventional sweat.

In addition, infrared radiation supports skin health by improving blood circulation and can thus alleviate skin problems. Regular use can also increase calorie consumption and contribute to weight loss.

Strengthening the immune system and muscle relaxation

The soothing warmth stimulates the immune system and improves the body's overall resistance. During a session, muscles and organs are intensively stimulated, which leads to better blood circulation. This not only helps to relieve muscle tension, but also increases muscle flexibility. For athletes, an infrared heat cabin offers an ideal “pre-warm-up.” After just 15-20 minutes of use, the muscles are well supplied with blood and ready for physical activity.

Selecting the right infrared heater

When choosing an infrared cabin, the radiator plays a decisive role. There are various radiator technologies (e.g., ceramic, carbon, or magnesium radiators), but the most important factor is the wavelength of the radiation emitted (IR-A, IR-B, or IR-C). This has a significant influence on the effect on the body.

The added value of infrared sauna technology in the wellness sector

Infrared sauna technology offers numerous health benefits and contributes to improving general well-being. It not only promotes detoxification of the body and improves skin texture, but also strengthens the immune system and supports athletic activities. With its gentle heat, it is an ideal addition to any wellness area—for anyone seeking relaxation while doing something good for their health.
