How to burn over 900 calories, detoxify your body, rejuvenate your skin and increase your health while sitting and relaxing for just 30 minutes
Imagine sitting and relaxing, the warmth caressing your body, reaching all the way to the bone. A gentle aroma further soothes your mind and you relax further in the soft light. You can stretch out as you enjoy the privacy of your own personal paradise, listening to your favorite music and perhaps enjoying a good book. What’s more, not only are your mind, emotions and your soul all enhanced, but this unique experience comes with many physical benefits too.
There is a new phenomena sweeping the world of health and fitness. It promises to be able to burn up to between 900 and 1,200 calories in only 30 minutes, without lifting a finger. It releases toxins like no other treatment, cleansing your body from years of accumulated poisons. It can increase your skins health by improving blood flow, removing built up dirt, softening hardened fascia and even assisting in breakdown of cellulite. It can improve your general health and has been proven to help in conditions from physical pain (including arthritis, muscular tension and muscle spasms), hypertension, and cystitis to asthma, obesity and edema. There is even early evidence to show its importance in the treatment of cancer.
So what is this exciting discovery? Far Infra Red Saunas. FIR saunas, not to be confused with conventional steam saunas have long been appreciated for their diverse health benefits in Japan, and now the rest of the world is catching on to their hidden secret. Unlike steam saunas the air is dry, so great for those suffering from damp lung conditions and the temperature does not need to be as high (typically between 50-60C). This makes them far more comfortable to sit in. Many people who have complained that they were unable to stand the high humidity or temperature of traditional saunas report enjoying their FIR sauna experience.
So how do they work? Well Far Infra Red is a specific range within the light spectrum. It is beyond our visible range and lies between the Ultra Violet and microwave frequencies. It is part of the suns natural rays (around 80% are FIR) and has been proven to be completely safe. Indeed the Far Infra Red spectrum has been shown to help heal burns caused by the UV light spectrum. These FIR rays can penetrate deep into the body, up to approximately 4cms, thus stimulating the release of toxins stored deep within the body and excess fluid being carried within the tissues.
This ability of the Far Infra Red spectrum to warm tissues, open pores, release toxins and promote calorie burning and perspiration makes the FIR sauna the ideal choice in any detox or weight loss programme. There is no other more enjoyable or safer way to achieve this level of result. If you are trying to lose weight the hard way then maybe it’s time to change your approach. Compare the 300 calories burnt from a 30 minute jog to the 900-2,400 calories burnt from a 30 minute FIR sauna and you will see the importance of this treatment.
To regain optimal health and energy it is important our bodies are properly cleansed. This is becoming ever more difficult in a world filled with so many chemicals and toxins. You only have to drink the water from the tap, eat the food from supermarket shelves, use the hygiene products in your bathroom cupboard or even walk down the road and breath the air to absorb toxins. These build up in your body over time until they put pressure on your liver causing tiredness, depression and eventual illness. By taking regular FIR saunas you can not only help restore your health but prevent future problems. For more information visit www.eft-therapy.com or email information@eft-therapy.com
