WIn reviewing medical literature many medical professionals believe saunas can be an
important component of personal wellness programmes.
The health benefits of sauna bathing are well documented (e.g. “Annals of Clincial
Research: Special Issue on Sauna”). Regular sauna bathing—and the associated
sweating process—can help you “Detoxify” your body, “Relieve muscle and joint
aches and pains” and “Relax”. The physical benefits combined with the associated
stress reduction makes the decision to purchase a sauna an easy one—a sauna not
only feels good, it is good for you!

In today’s lifestyles, most of us don’t
actively sweat on a daily basis.
Numerous medical studies show that
deep sweating has multiple health benefits.
Regular bathing in a Far-Infrared
Sauna by Helo provides the benefits
derived from a deep sweat:
- In the heat of a sauna, the core
body temperature begins to rise. The
blood vessels dilate, causing increased
blood flow. As heat from the blood
moves toward the skin surfaces and
the core body temperature rises, the
body’s nervous system sends signals to
the millions of sweat glands covering
the body. As the sweat glands are
stimulated they produce sweat. Sweat
production is primarily for cooling
of the body, and is composed mostly
of water—but deep sweating in a
sauna can help reduce levels of lead,
copper, zinc, nickel and mercury—all toxins commonly picked up from our environment.
- At the same time, skin is cleansed and dead cells are replaced, keeping your skin in good working condition.
- Sweat rinses bacteria out of the
epidermal layer and sweat ducts.
Cleansing of the pores improves the capillary circulation and gives the skin a soft, beautiful appearance.
