Health Benefits of a Traditional Sauna vs Infrared Sauna
By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Jon_K]Jon K
The benefits of a traditional sauna compared to an infrared are more or less the same. The difference will be in the degree of benefits that a body can receive from these two having an entirely different system of giving beneficial heat to the body and the risk that a high blood sufferer might encounter in a traditional one.
In a traditional, the method of conveying heat to the body is by heating the air environment to heat the body, while in an infrared sauna, the heat is directed to the body and not the air environment. Thus, in a traditional, to attain a desired heat temperature for a body, the heat temperature of the room has to be higher, which can be very inconvenient for a person to stay long in the room. In an infrared , since the infrared heat rays only heats the body instead of the air surrounding, the person inside an infrared sauna can be comfortable even for a longer period.
These obtaining situations would result to making the person having a sauna inside an infrared room receiving more beneficial heat from the infrared rays because of the longer duration of his stay inside an infrared room. While on the other hand, a person having a sauna in a traditional or steam can only receive beneficial health in a limited time as he will be subjected to uncomfortable heat inside the sauna room. Aside from the time duration, the degree of beneficial heat the body receives in an infrared sauna is more deep penetrating as the infrared rays heat is focused on the body and not in the air around the body. The heat penetration of a body in a traditional sauna will be shallow as the heat is not focused to the body but almost all over the sauna room.
People suffering from high blood pressure likewise are discouraged from using traditional saunas, but are encouraged to use infrared. Although both kinds of saunas would tend to lower blood pressure, the intense room heat of a traditional or steam saunas would tend to aggravate more the high blood pressure of a person the moment he steps out of the sauna room and be subjected to a sudden change of temperature. Unlike a steam or traditional, infrared's do not heat up the room. The infrared room remains cool and more or less the same as the outside room temperature, thus enabling a person who suffers from high blood pressure to comfortably lowers his or her blood pressure without any threat of a sudden change of temperature the moment he comes out of the infrared sauna therapy room.
