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.
ARE INFRARED RAYS SAFE?
Because infrared rays are part of sunlight, they are not only safe but also highly
beneficial to our bodies on a cellular level. Health professionals have used infrared heat
lamps for decades to treat muscle and joint problems. In hospital baby care units,
incubators are often equipped with infrared heating systems to keep newborn babies
warm.
WHAT IS AN ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD (also known as EMF)?
An Electromagnetic Field is a physical field produced by electrically charged objects. It
is one of the fundamental forces of nature. The field can be viewed as the combination
of an electric field and a magnetic field. The electric field is produced by stationary
charges and the magnetic field by moving charges referred to as currents. The
magnetic field is measured in milligauss (mG). Our sauna products have been
developed to have low EMF. Our Low EMF sauna models range between an average of
5mG-10mG at about two inches from the heater panel and our Ultra Low EMF sauna
models range between 3mG-5mG at the same approximate distance.

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.
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.

HOW IT WORKS
Infrared Saunas differ from traditional saunas in that they use infrared radiant energy to
directly penetrate into the body's tissue to produce perspiration. Traditional saunas use
steam to heat the air inside the sauna, which then heats your body until you begin to
perspire. In order for this to be effective, temperatures would need to reach in the
upwards of 190 degrees Fahrenheit. Infrared saunas only need a temperature of up to
120 degrees Fahrenheit to obtain the same effect. This lower temperature makes the
environment more tolerable and allows you to breathe easier.
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.
Health Benefits Include, But Are Not Limited To:
*Pain relief from Rheumatoid Arthritis *Relaxes muscle spasms *Reduces cellulite
*Increases blood circulation *Clears, rashes, acne *Enhances skin tone
*Cardiovascular conditioning *Reduces stress & fatigue *Removes toxins
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.
