/24-7PressRelease/ - BUENA PARK, CA, August 24, 2008 - Daily sweating in a Health Mate dry, far infrared sauna can boost the immune system, help reduce blood pressure, lower cholesterol, improves cardiac function, and brings relief of pain from arthritis.
Numerous studies by medical practitioners have shown that sweating in a dry far infrared sauna produces the following effects:
• Speeds up metabolic processes of vital organs and inhibits the growth of pathogenic bacteria and viruses. The vital organs and glands (including endocrine and sex glands) are stimulated to increased activity.
• Creates a fever reaction that kills potentially dangerous viruses/bacteria and increase the number of leukocytes in the blood, thereby strengthening the immune system.
• Places demands upon the cardiovascular system, making the heart pump harder and producing a drop in diastolic blood pressure.
• Stimulates vasodilation of peripheral vessels, which relieves pain and speeds healing of sprains, strains, bursitis, peripheral vascular diseases, arthritis and muscle pain.
• Promotes relaxation, thereby lending a feeling of well-being.
"If you have [tendency to] high blood pressure or heart disease, saunas may be good for you," said Dr. Andrew Weil.
"Repeated sauna treatment improves [blood vessel] function, resulting in improvement in cardiac function and ... symptoms," said Takashi Kihara, MD, in a Japanese research study.
The far Infrared rays created in the Health Mate sauna penetrate 1 ½ inches into the skin through a process of conversion in which heat is transferred directly to the body without first heating the air. This produces two to three times more sweat than conventional steam saunas, increasing heart rate and pumping more blood through the dilated blood vessels to achieve a cardiovascular training effect that is both comfortable and safe, according to Theresa Nguyen of PLH Products, manufacturer of Health Mate saunas.
"In addition to essential cardiac conditioning, the deep heat of Health Mate sauna induces intense sweat that helps rid your body of toxins and wastes, thereby strengthening your body's immune system. With regular sessions, the stiffness and pain associated with certain joint and muscle conditions diminishes dramatically, while the profuse sweating achieved in the Health Mate carries off deeply imbedded impurities and dead skin cells for improved tone, texture, elasticity and color," said Nguyen.
