Doctors have known of the healing power of infrared for some time and have been using small, hand held units as healing tools for damaged tissue. Damaged bones, muscles and skin can heal faster with infrared as it increases blood flow to the area, bringing not only nutrients but prostaglandins and mast cells which are essential for the healing to begin.

Those who suffer from Arthritis, Fibro or Polymyalgia will get some welcome relief from far infrared also as these conditions respond well to heat.

For anybody who has allergies or skin conditions the sauna can help as it does a wonderful job of detoxification, getting rid of the build up of toxins in the body by increasing blood circulation and exciting the lymphatic system. Also, the good news is that fat melts at 42 C, which releases more stored toxins but also allows for the manipulation of the fat cells by massage, thereby smoothing appearance of cellulite.

Relaxation is the key to stress relief and the sauna certainly does make you feel relaxed, although I wouldn’t recommend having a sauna directly before bed (leave it for an hour), as you won't be able to sleep straight away due to the fact that you have just increased your metabolism.

So, the idea is to sauna any time and not just because you are going to have a massage. Have one before a facial or after a waxing (which is stressful for some) or just for the hell of it. Having a sauna on a hot day is pleasantly refreshing too.
