00:00foreign [Music] suggested that I spend 30 days in a wooden box I was a little concerned fortunately it's a sauna we're talking about in today's video I'm going to show you how I felt after spending 30 days not full days in the infrared sauna the infrared sonnet is blown up in the health and wellness segment and why well one of the reasons is the lower heat temperatures and people find that much more tolerable than the regular saunas the heat comes from these panels within and it's very relaxing the list of health benefits that the infrared sauna is purported to do is the length of your arm every time you turn around they're adding another thing to the Miracles of the infrared sauna but some of the things in fact quite a
01:00lot of things are scientifically proven according to the Mayo Clinic but let's talk about the list of the things that maybe can help us detoxification whatever that really is through the sweating process although keeping in mind that for the first few sessions you may not sweat that much and that's okay give it some time you will also maybe need to gradually increase the temperature Don't Go full all out at the beginning but the range is really around 120 to about a top of about 150. exercise recovery it soothes our sore muscles that makes perfect sense the Mayo Clinic does say that there is scientific evidence for heart cardiac health as well as helping to lower our blood pressure two really big concerns for many of us boosting our immunity mood Improvement and the one I like is younger looking
02:00skin circulation is improved the infrared rays penetrate improving our production of collagen and reducing the appearance of wrinkles I'm here for that uh improve circulation pain relief many people have reported people with fibromyalgia chronic fatigue chronic fatigue syndrome and sore really sore muscles after exercise have found that pain is lessened relaxation many people have reported headaches have diminished suffering from arthritis anti-inflammatory add that to the list I do have some arthritis in my thumbs so I'm hopeful that that is going to be a positive benefit for me there are some questionable benefits such as the reduction of visceral fat that the infrared Sonic can burn three to six hundred calories per 40 minute session
03:00maybe that's true I'm not sure about that one increase our metabolism support our digestive enzymes here's one ladies reduce cellulite if this is going to reduce cellulite I'm definitely staying in the infrared sauna has deemed to be safe for emotional but if you're in any doubt do check with your doctor ahead of time and there are a few potential negatives the number one being dehydration you must hydrate drink before and drink during I always have been bringing my water bottle inside and because of that dehydration some people do feel lightheadedness so that is something to be aware of for sure it may lower your blood pressure and if you already have low blood pressure you really want to be on the lookout for that some people feel claustrophobic although there is glass here you know what keep in mind your own tolerability about things like that
04:00there have been reports of people feeling leg pain from being inside as well as an airway constriction or an airway irritation so those are a couple things that have been reported if you do have any of those symptoms discontinue use of course and maybe talk to your doctor about that most infrared songs are equipped with a light changing device which maybe is not going to work oh yes chromatherapy and these different colors may bring about different bodily responses green for purification purple yellow Etc so here's the plan I'm going to spend a minimum of 30 minutes a day in the infrared sauna and I'm going to report to you maybe a couple times throughout and see how I feel and see if I notice anything different and I'm going to tell you all about it a few things when you're getting ready to get into your infrared sauna hydrate you have to bring a bottle of water in with you for every 20 minutes
05:00or so you really must do that even some water before you start because this is the one of the biggest things that people find if they feel dizzy or if they feel light-headed it's generally the dehydration that's causing that so make sure you bring some water in with you what you don't want to bring in with you is your phone or your tablet or your smart watch none of those things are necessary for when you're going in infrared sauna you want to take yourself away from that and not only that the heat is not good it will wear down your devices you know you're going to be in there to start maybe 20 minutes and that that's another thing there's some build up involved and the temperature so 120 is generally around the lower end and going up to close to 150 which still is significantly less than a traditional sauna and that is one of the benefits of
06:00the infrared is you can get the sweating benefit without the excessively high heat just put a towel on the bench and go with nothing but you really want as much of your skin exposed as you can the sweating will come with prolonged sessions so don't worry about that at the beginning I'm going to wait till it's a little bit higher and then I'm going to get in thank you
07:00I'm done I love pointing my face towards the panels and I can feel my pores opening up I always wash my face I may have my eye makeup on but I always wash my face you do not want makeup or any impurities going in your skin when your pores are open so I wash my face and it feels so good I can't believe it but I've often fallen asleep in there even though it doesn't look like the most comfortable situation it's so relaxing that was a very enjoyable 30 days of sauna the results I think are really strongly positive first of all it is ultra relaxing shockingly because of the
08:00warmth and it does take a little bit to get used to it I did start at about 120 and now really like it hotter 145 147 in there and thoroughly thoroughly enjoying it and I'm shocked to say that I have often fallen asleep and I don't even know how because it's not the most comfortable situation it's a hard back and it's a hard seat but it's just you really feel the warmth penetrating you and it really is very relaxing the next thing that I definitely see an improvement in is my skin I love to put my face against it you can actually feel your pores opening the circulation is coming forth I feel like there is an extra glow that lasts Beyond just the Heat of the Moment I did take a few saunas before I started sweating and maybe that was also the lower temperature but I'll tell you after about a week oh I are sweating I love to
09:00read in there listening to spa music or anything that makes you feel good I have found that to be really very relaxing and further to the relaxing part is my sleep if you have that in the evening right after like right before bed and then have a shower and go to bed you really feel like you just melted to that mattress so that is very much a positive as far as all of those other things the length of my arm of all of those things that I've told you some of the things are really you know they're not quantifiable I mean I'm not my blood pressure was not high or low um some of those things that I can't really tell I do sometimes get pain in my knees from running too much I haven't had that don't know if that's related or not I don't want to put too many things on to the sauna that may or may not be from the sauna but the bottom line I loved it and there are many many
