Benefits of infrared sauna:
1. Pain Relief: Deep heat penetration alleviates muscle soreness and arthritis.
2. Improved Circulation: Boosts heart rate and blood flow, enhancing cardiovascular health.
3. Relaxation and Stress Reduction: Balances cortisol levels and stimulates the release of endorphins, promoting calmness.
4. Burn Calories: Increases caloric burn through elevated heart rate and body cooling effort. 30 minutes in an infrared sauna at 151F can burn up to 600 calories.

11. Immune System Boost: Elevates body temperature to stimulate the immune response.
12. Chronic Conditions Management: Benefits in managing symptoms of chronic fatigue syndrome, type 2 diabetes, and rheumatoid arthritis.
