Here at Spa-Rite, we can provide you and your family with the highest quality saunas at reasonable and competitive prices. A sauna can be a great addition to your outdoor living area, and can provide you with that extra element to your healthy lifestyle. Our saunas are of the highest quality, and will not take up much room at your property. Here are just a few of the benefits a sauna can have on your health:
- During a 10-20 minute sauna session, your heart rate increases by 50-75%. This provides the same metabolic result as physical exercise. The increased cardiac load is the equivalent to a brisk walk.
- Blood vessels become more flexible and there is increased circulation. During a sauna session, blood flow to the skin increases to as high as 50-70% of cardiac output, as compared to the standard 5-10%. This can result is healthy, glowing skin and can aid scar tissue and skin based injuries.
- Saunas induce sweating to provide a comprehensive cleansing of the skin and sweat glands. Skin is the largest organ in the body – 30% of body wastes are passed through the skin. Profuse sweating enhances the detoxifying capacity of the skin by opening pores and flushing impurities from the body.
- During a sauna session, skin temperature rises to 40C and internal body temperature rises to about 38C. Exposure to the high heat creates an artificial fever state. Fever stimulates the immune system resulting in increased production of disease fighting white blood cells, antibodies and interferon.
- In conjunction with massage and spa sessions, saunas can help to loosen fatty tissue and assist in the battle against cellulite and difficult weight loss.
