1.WHAT IS AN INFRARED SAUNA BLANKET?
An infrared sauna blanket is a portable, compact blanket that gives you all the benefits of a traditional sauna in a more convenient way. It consists of heat-resistant materials and emits infrared heat to promote sweating, raise your body temperature, and help promote healing and repair.
2.WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF INFRARED SAUNA BLANKETS?
Infrared sauna blankets offer a wide range of benefits, which contribute to improved health and well being. These benefits include but aren’t limited to the following:
Detoxification
Pain relief
Relaxation
Stress reduction
Improved sleep
Improved skin health
Boosted immune system
Improved cardiovascular health
The deep-penetrating infrared heat of sauna blankets can help alleviate muscle soreness, joint pain, and stiffness. This promotes better blood circulation, which aids in reducing inflammation and easing pain.
Infrared sauna blankets can help relax muscles and reduce tension, making them beneficial for individuals with muscle pain or chronic muscle tightness.
3.COMPARISON: INFRARED LIGHT THERAPY VS. TRADITIONAL HEAT BLANKET
While heat blankets/pads offer surface warmth, their impact on deep tissue healing may be limited compared to infrared therapy. Infrared light's ability to penetrate several millimeters beneath the skin's surface makes it a better choice for those seeking faster and deeper pain relief, and tissue regeneration deep beneath the skin.
4.WHEN TO USE INFRARED: TIMING MATTERS
Start gently and gradually increasing the duration and power levels, especially for newcomers or those with specific health concerns. The recommended duration of infrared is 15-20 minutes, and wait at least 6 hrs between sessions.
Warning - exercise caution and avoid immediate intense workouts after a session until you grow familiar with the results.
5.CONTRAINDICATIONS TO INFRARED
Before using infrared light therapy, be aware of contraindications to ensure safety. Avoid infrared therapy if you have active cancer, tumors, or open wounds to prevent potential risks. Pregnant individuals should refrain from infrared therapy due to uncertain effects on fetal development. Using infrared therapy during a fever, for severe cardiovascular conditions, active infections, or high sensitivity to heat is not recommended. Those with bleeding disorders, taking blood-thinning medications, or having certain nervous system disorders should also avoid infrared therapy. Prioritizing caution ensures safe and effective use.
