Bath, saunas - news, Types bath and sauna, Articles baths and saunas : Infrared sauna
 

Infrared sauna

The infrared sauna based on the ability of the infrared radiation to heat the human body. Infrared radiation or thermal radiation is a type of heat. This is the same heat that you feel from a hot stove or battery heating. It does not have anything in common either with ultraviolet or X-ray radiation and is safe for humans.

Infrared saunas are most suited for modern life. Judge for yourself : small investment of time and energy for the session, small size can deploy in a normal apartment, high efficiency in combating fatigue, warns colds and other diseases, the availability of people of different ages. It is important to understand that the infrared sauna only modern technology task-old body heat and can not be countered by traditional baths and saunas. Rather, the complementary device. It can be said that traditional bath and sauna is a place for the traditional transmission time with friends, while the infrared sauna is recreational devices.

Infrared sauna cabin is made of wood. Inside cabins set back, the corner (front) leg and infrared radiators (heaters) of special ceramics. A session in a sauna takes about 30 minutes at a temperature of the air 45-500S and natural moisture. Sweating in the infrared sauna much higher than conventional saunas and bathhouses, in a much more flexible environment, which lies very salutary effect.

The infrared sauna uses a direct (explicit) heating the body, which is significantly different from the indirect method of heating used in traditional baths and saunas. Certainly, it is argued that the direct method of heating larger better than indirect. In conventional sauna stove (fuel or electricity) first heats stones, and then stones heated air, and only after that has been heating up the body. The air has a low heat capacity, therefore, effective heat of the human body, it should be much reheated, as it is being done in Finnish saunas, or add a couple, like the Russian pair, or Turkish bath. Another major shortcoming of traditional bath is that the air in their paired nearly stationary. As the operation, he quickly saturates the large number (up to 4-5%), carbon dioxide fumes and sweat. Therefore, in the process, a short time later in the twin effects of bath formed plaster, as well as the concentration of carbon dioxide increased by 8-10 times compared with its content in the air space for recreation.

The increase in temperature has its drawbacks : increased access to scorch skin and upper respiratory tract, there is a risk of skin diseases. Increased humidity is the same price-reduced oxygen partial pressure in the air and, consequently, increasing the risk of worsening cardiovascular disease. Absolute contraindications for admission or Finnish sauna baths are tumors (benign or malignant) or suspicion on them, the active form of tuberculosis, bleeding, circulatory insufficiency.

The infrared sauna special radiators working in the invisible infrared range. They are located around the body for the most effective heat. Thus, up to 90% of energy generated emitters comes directly in the human body, bypassing the hot air. Only 10% of the power goes to heating the air (in the case of ceramic heaters). This explains the low temperature in the infrared sauna. Moreover, such heaters not burn oxygen in the sauna.
