In this video, we're talking about infrared heat therapy.
This is a really favorite topic of mine because first of all, I use it for my own personal
use and I also use it clinically in order to help patients get better results.
As a matter of fact, when we look at infrared heat therapy there's some people, I should
say some doctors out there who have said that it's one of the most powerful tools that they
have besides following a good healthy diet.
And so, it's a very powerful tool that you can utilize in order to improve your health
and also reverse some different health problems that you're having.
So, wart we're going to do in this video is talk about all the benefits that infrared
heat has to offer and then talk about what you need to look for if you're going to unitize
infrared heat yourself and then, some of my favorite ways to use it.
So, let's go ahead and jump right in.
Now, I will say that when it comes to this time of year, especially because I live in
a cold climate, I really love using the infrared sauna because it just warms you up, it feels
great, it helps reduce pain and discomfort especially after heavy workouts.
So, let's go ahead and talk about all the different ways that you could benefit from
infrared heat.
First here is anti-aging.
Now, when we look at infrared heat basically what's been found in some of the study is
it's going to improve your collegian levels, your elastin levels, it's also going to reduce
wrinkles and make your skin more firm.
So, as a result, it can give you a more youthful look and it's going to support that anti-aging
proves.
The next one here is, detoxification.
So, the reason it's going to support detoxification is because the infrared heat actually gets
deep into the tissues, it's going to get deep into the muscle tissue, the fat and as a result,
it's going to start releasing some of those different toxins, but it's also going to cause
you to sweat if you're using an infrared sauna.
As a result of that, you're going to sweat out some of those toxins and then, when you
look at detoxification, some of the detox that I talk about combined with infrared saunas
is very powerful.
It’s a very powerful combination for total body detox.
The next is, weight loss.
When you use infrared heat and infrared saunas essentially, you're going to go in, you're
going to start sweating, your heart rates going to increase, it's going to burn calories.
And so, it's really powerful for that too and there's a lot of people that report they've
changed nothing in their lifestyle, they just added in using an infrared sauna and as a
result, they started losing weight.
Now, the next here is it's going to improve your heart health, your cardiovascular health.
There are studies out there that show that it's going to decrease and normalize blood
pressure, normalize cholesterol and even help in the healing process of different heart
conditions out there.
So, you want to make sure that if you want to really get those heart health benefits,
we're using some infrared heat therapy in order to get those.
It's also going to reduce pain.
There's studies out there that show it helps reduce arthritic pain, pain from ankylosing
spondylitis was another study I came across, but there's so many different reports of people
finding that infrared heat just kind of reduces pain across the board, whether it's from an
injury, recovering, whether it's from symptoms of diabetes, there's just so many different
things out there that people have reported that it's helped with in the way of pain.
Now, the next this is, it's going to improve your overall quality of life.
There was a study done in Japan and it found that people who were using infrared heat therapy
as a result of using it, they just had a more positive outlook, more positive mental state,
and also just an overall improved sense of well-being and so, if you're doing it for
nothing else, just to feel better then that's good enough.
And then last on our list here is, it's going to support recovery.
So, if you're weight training, if you're doing endurance training, if you're recovering from
an injury, it supports that whole process and there's even a lot of athletes that will
actually go and use infrared heat therapy in order to get better results, train harder,
faster and just be able to get the results that they're looking for.
Now, when we look at this infrared heat therapy, I'm talking about some of the different benefits
here that are found in their search, but if you just go online and look at all the different
benefits that people have from it, it goes far beyond this list here.
Now, the next thing I want to talk about here is what you want to look for when you're getting
an infrared heat unit, okay.
So, there's near, mid and far infrared.
Each one of them offer their own unquiet benefit but, when you're getting an infrared unit
of any sort whether it's a heating pad or a sauna, you want to make sure you get full
spectrum infrared and essentially what that means is, it's going to have near, mid and
far and offer you the benefits of all of them and so, when you're looking at anything infrared
heat always get full spectrum.
Now, the other thing that I want to talk about is how I like to use infrared heat.
So, first of all, in the way of heating pads I already mentioned that clinically we use
the heating pads.
You can put them up on your shoulder and neck, you could put them on a knee, you could put
them on your lower back, whatever it is and they just feel really great and they help
reduce inflammation, reduce that pain and really make you feel a lot better.
The other thing that's great about the heating pads is you can get them for a pretty inexpensive
price.
You can get them in full spectrum and it's a good way to get into infrared heat and start
getting some of those different benefits it has to offer.
The next favorite way that I have is using a portable sauna.
So, there's these little mini portable saunas.
They look kind of funny, they're almost like a tent with your head popping out of them
and the good thing is, is that first of all, you get the benefit of a full size sauna,
they feel great, but you're going to go in them, you're going to get a good sweat going
and one of the better things about them is that they're small if you have a condo, an
apartment or just you have a house that you don't want to have this big, huge sauna in.
They're great because they're small and you can even fold them up and put them away.
And so, I've used a portable sauna for many years.
I really love them.
And then of course, this full-size sauna is always great too.
Some people just love the full size because they can go in, they can even do some exercise
in it, they can do yoga in it, they can do kettle bell workouts, they can sit in there
with their friends and family.
It's really whatever fits you best and so, obviously with a full-size sauna you're going
to have to open your wallet up a little bit more for that one.
Now, another thing that you can do is, a lot of spas will even have memberships where you
can go and get a membership just to simply use the infrared sauna because so many people
are using it as a result of finding out that it offers a lot of really positive health
benefits.
And so, once again, these are the benefits.
Make sure that you’re getting full spectrum utilize some infrared heat for best health
results.
