Far Infrared Sauna
We are excited to offer Sauna Therapy for our established patients. Please see our Appointments page for more details.
Far Infrared Sauna (FIR) therapy is a specialized detoxification technique that helps to remove toxins from bodily fat cells. It brings the toxins into circulation and with supportive detoxification therapies, it can be removed through the bowels and kidneys effectively. The toxins are also drawn out through the skin when sweating occurs in the sauna.
Far Infrared Sauna therapy is used to enhance and promote detoxification and includes the following potential benefits:
20-30% of Mercury and Lead stored in fat tissue can be released
Increases healing process and helps with immune system
Improvement of chronic skin problems, such as eczema, hormonal acne, psoriasis, etc...
Improves brain derived neurotropic factor (BDNF) in patients with neurological disorders
Helps with musculoskeletal pain
Up to 600 calories can be burned with a 30 minute treatment
Helps with weight loss programs
Far Infrared Sauna specifically penetrates past the dermis of the skin, which speeds up the breakdown of fat cells and increases the toxin liberation
The Far Infrared Sauna at our office is the most non-toxic unit available for use in Northern Arizona. This unit takes the environmentally-sensitive and chemically-sensitive patients into account. There are no toxic glues, varnishes, or paints used in manufacturing this FIR Sauna unit. The sauna is made out of popular wood, which is one of the least reactive woods for chemically-sensitive patients. The unit emits very low EMF for our EMF-sensitive patients.
