Infrared Sauna Benefits WHY IS AN INFRARED SAUNA BETTER THAN A TRADITIONAL SAUNA? In an infrared sauna the heat penetrates deeper and faster into the human body in contrast to the humid, surface heat of a traditional sauna. An infrared sauna uses less energy, heats up much quicker and is effective at a lower temperature so that one can tolerate the heat for a longer session thus increasing the benefits of the sauna. Infrared heat penetrates almost 2 inches deep into your muscles and bones for optimum therapy. With infrared Ceramic heaters your body will produce 3 times more perspiration removing 4 times more harmful toxins and waste from the body. Leaving you healthier and your skin better glowing! • BURNS CALORIES AND REDUCES WEIGHT Burn up to 600 calories in 30 minutes without strenuous exercise. While you are relaxing your body is actually working producing sweat, pumping blood and burning calories. Here are how many calories a 150-pound person normally burns up in 30 minutes of exercise: SPORT : CALORIES Rowing (peak effort) : 600 Swimming (crawl stroke) : 300 Jogging : 300 Tennis (fast game) : 265 Chopping Wood : 265 Cycling (10mph) : 225 Golfing (without a cart) : 150 Walking (3.5mph) : 150 Bowling : 120 Vigorous Racket Ball : 510 Marathon Running 593 Some weight loss authorities believe that our bodies use fat to dilute toxins. As an Infrared is an unsurpassed expeller of toxins, it is also a great way to get rid of any fat our bodies are using to dilute toxins we are storing. • REDUCES CELLULITE • PURIFIES BODY OF TOXINS Numerous toxins are absorbed and stored in our bodies. Toxic gases like sulphur dioxide carbon dioxide and substances like lead, mercury and chlorine are encapsulated by large water molecules. When toxins are present in our body blood circulation is blocked and cellular energy is impaired. The body’s immune system is inhibited, which makes it difficult for the body to fight disease. When the infrared heat is applied the large water molecules vibrate in your body and are broken down. The encapsulated toxic materials and gases are then released. Infrared heat is often used in the treatment of clogged capillaries, the heat expands the capillaries and skin pores to expel the toxins from the body. One can tolerate and even enjoy Infrared heat for longer periods of time than the heat from a Hot tub or steam bath, therefore the sweating from the Infrared heat promotes the most beneficial detoxification. • RELIEVES JOINT PAIN & STIFFNESS Infrared Heat is widely used in healing and relieving muscle and tissue injuries. It is also often used in the effective treatment of sprains, bursitis, joint stiffness and other muscular ailments. The intense heat clears away the build-up of lactic acid and carbon dioxide around the muscles, by removing the toxins muscle and joint stiffness disappears. • STRENGTHENS THE IMMUNE SYSTEM An artificial fever is produced by the body from the Infrared heat, which stimulates the body’s defense mechanism against bacteria and infection. The artificial fever causes an increase in the production of white blood cells by your bone marrow and killer T cells by your thymus which is the beneficial side effects of the raised body temperature thus causing an increase in your immune system. • CREATES HEALTHIER SKIN • HELPS HEEL SCARS |

| Chromotherapy Chromotherapy, also called color therapy, is the use of color and light to gently bring about homeostasis. Color and light is applied to specific areas and accupoints on the body. (Source: Institute For Chromotherapy) "The earth, the oceans, in fact every living thing, is dependent upon light for its very existence. A recent scientific study disclosed that each cell in the body emits light. We live in a sea of energy and our bodies are composed of energy. Color works through and in us, in every nerve, cell, gland and muscle. Within our body, our organs, muscles, cells and nerves all have a level of vibration. When our body becomes out of balance, disease occurs. Each color has its own frequency and vibration. Through extensive research, we know that color and light will help bring our physical and emotional systems into balance." (A. Cammilleri, Trainer) At West Coast Saunas we use seven different types of lights in our saunas:
