One of the main differences between an
infrared sauna and a traditional steam sauna
is the temperature of the sauna. A steam
sauna operates between 82°C and 104°C
whereas the infrared sauna operates
between 43°C and 65°C. This difference in
temperature of up to 43°C has proven to be
favorable to the infrared sauna as it
drastically reduces the dangers of over-
heating. The greatest reward of the lower
temperature is that a person can remain in
the sauna longer and receive more of the
healing benefits. The reduction in heat does
not make the infrared sauna any less
effective. In fact, it has been found that a
person will sweat more toxins in a lower
temperature infrared sauna than a higher
temperate steam sauna.
NeoQi® energy cocoon operates at safe
comfortable temperatures. Infrared light
penetrates the skin up to 10 times deeper
than steam, which simply condenses on the
skin and transfers the heat to its outer
layers, whereas infrared light penetrates the
body up to 2 inches where the light converts
to radiant heat and exhibits far greater
detoxification attributes. The deep
penetration has many positive effects
including: melting fatty acids, cholesterols
and saturated fats which increases the
elasticity of arteries and thus takes
considerable stress off the heart.

Infrared sauna has the ability to reduce
inflammation in joints, help regenerate
damaged tissues, stimulate the metabolism,
and increase the core temperature which is
beneficial to the immune system by
weakening and killing cancers cells, bacteria,
and viruses that are all susceptible to heat.
It is very important that one keeps
thoroughly hydrated before and during the
use of the Infrared Sauna. As the body heat
increases and the body begins to sweat, the
loss of water can change the electrolyte
concentration and can have harmful effects.
Furthermore, as the toxins are released
through sweat, they are, to a lesser extent,
