A heater is the most vital part of a sauna as without a heater a sauna will be rendered ineffective. The underlying principle of a sauna is to produce heat which will make a person sweat. Sweating is known to have many healthful benefits. Aside from toning the muscles and building stamina, people are known to regularly exercise just to sweat. Detoxification is one of the benefits derived from sweating. The more a person sweat, the more harmful and unwanted substances or toxins are eliminated from the body.

By using a sauna, person may be able to rid himself of more unwanted toxins without having to do any kind of strenuous exercises. The heat emitted penetrates the skin improves the blood circulation through increasing the cardiovascular output. Likewise purification is achieved which results to a more beautiful pampered looking skin.

Sauna heaters vary from gas, wood or electricity. Recently, the infrared sauna heaters have gained a worldwide popularity. Individuals as well as health clinics and medical centers are using infrared sauna heaters because of its well-known benefits. Infrared sauna heaters are highly efficient and cost saving devices. Unlike the more traditional or typical sauna heaters that would heat the surrounding air and then transfer the heat to the body of the user, the infrared rays of this sauna heater would heat the object directly in front of it.

This makes this kind of sauna heater cost efficient and affordable as it does not need to heat large areas. Infrared sauna heaters are about 5 times more efficient than any other heater as less heat will be lost since it does not need to heat the surrounding area.

Take note that the efficiency remains the same even if temperature is lowered, the infrared rays emitted is guaranteed 100% safe and will not fry you. In case you worry, the Infrared rays are different from ultraviolet rays which are known to cause skin cancer.

With an infrared sauna heater, heat is produced more effectively thus a consistent and steady amount of heat is radiated. The heat produced then penetrates the skin and results to more production of sweat which greatly aids in the removal of harmful toxins from the body.

Another plus factor of this sauna heater is that it is most beneficial to people who are suffering from joint or muscle difficulties due to injuries. The application of heat is proven to alleviate pain, most especially since these Infrared heaters emit "drier" air. Most people favor this kind of heater because this enables them to stay comfortably in the sauna for longer period of time while having a good time.
