What Are Infrared Rays?
Infrared is the band of light we perceive as heat. We cannot see this band of light with the
naked eye, but we can feel this type of light in the form of heat. Our sun produces most of
its energy output in the infrared segment of the spectrum. Infrared rays heat your body
without having to heat the air in-between. This process is called conversion.
The infrared is divided into 3 segments by wavelengths measured in microns: Near
Infrared –0.76-1.5 microns; Middle Infrared –1.5-5.6 microns; and Far Infrared –5.6-1000
microns. Among these segments, Far Infrared penetrates organic substances such as the
human body two to three inches so that the warming effect is very uniform.
Health Benefits
Because infrared rays penetrate the body through conversion, there is a deep heating
effect in both the muscle tissues and internal organs without putting too much burden on
the heart.
Our body reacts to the increased heating through the natural cooling process of perspiring.
Through the perspiration process, acid and waste residue like toxins, sodium, alcohol,
nicotine, cholesterol, and the potentially carcinogenic heavy metals are removed from the
cells (especially zinc, lead, nickel, cadmium, etc.). The pores of our skin open and
discharge waste products shedding any old skin cells leaving the skin glowing and clean,
with improved tone, elasticity, texture, and color.

DISCLAIMER
The infrared rays emitted by your sauna are reported to offer a wide range of possible
therapeutic benefits based on research completed over the last 40 years from all around
the world. These benefits are presented for reference purposes only and no implication of
infrared saunas creating a cure for or treating any disease is implied nor should it be
inferred. If you have a medical/health condition, are taking prescription drugs, or have
acute joint injuries, please consult with your medical physician before using the sauna.
Persons with surgical implants (metal pins/rods, artificial joints, silicone, or other types of
surgical implants) typically do not experience any adverse effects, but should also consult
their medical physician or surgeon before using the sauna room.
What are electric and magnetic fields?
Electric and magnetic fields are a basic force of nature (like gravity), generated by
electricity. They are found almost everywhere. Electric and magnetic fields are found in
nature, where they are created by such things as lightning and static electricity. Manmade
fields are found wherever people use electricity, such as near powerlines and electrical
appliances. Like sound, electric and magnetic fields are made of a mixture of components
and so can be described in many different ways. Both have wave-like properties
such as strength and “frequency” (how often they cycle back and forth). Sound can be
loud (strong) or soft (weak), high or low pitched (different frequencies), suddenly loud or
constant in tone, and pure or jarring. Similarly, electric and magnetic fields are a mixture
of components. They can be strong or weak, have a high or low frequency, have sudden
increases in strength (“transients”) or a constant strength, and consist of one pure
frequency or several (called “harmonics”). For example, the strength of a field can be weak
and constant, as in most nighttime home environments, or it can be strong and vary from
high to low every few seconds, as from an electric blanket set on high. Powerlines and
wiring in buildings and appliances generate 50 and 60 Hertz fields, sometimes referred to
Page 2

as “power frequency” fields. Hertz is the unit for measuring the frequency of fields in the
number of wave cycles each second. The lower the frequency of a field, the lower its
energy. Power frequency fields are low frequency fields and have low energy levels.
Microwave and x-ray fields are high frequency fields and have high energy levels. Below
are some EMF measurements.
EMF Levels from Common Homes Sources
After many years and numerous studies on EMF exposure, no government body including
the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) have established permissible
exposure limits (PEL). Currently, there is no consensus on the potential health hazard from
any exposure to EMF. The mainstream scientific evidence suggests that low-power, low-
frequency, electromagnetic radiation associated with household currents like that of the
infrared sauna does not constitute a short or long term health hazard.
Sauna Maintenance
Since infrared saunas do not require hot rocks, water, or steam to operate, they require
very little maintenance. You can simply wipe it down with water –use a damp, soft, and
clean cloth. Do not use any chemical based cleaning agents as they can be absorbed
into the wood and be released into your sauna during use.
