“Hello everyone
Greetings from Denmark – land of the saunas! Thank you so much for my beautiful new sauna… The lovely cosy escape…. I managed to finally relax in it at 10.15pm on Tuesday night, garden lights on sauna light off, and it was quite magical. I was able to squeeze in another session on Thursday afternoon before I went away… Now discovering night times are definitely the best, deeply relaxing, followed by a good nights sleep. I’m really enjoying the natural wood scent.
Jason and Rob were great; sauna beautifully put together and cleared everything up. I hope they didn’t get back too late.
And I love my little footstool – thank you, it’s perfect. I’ll let you know the improvements I hope to make with my arthritis.
Thank you again
Niki”

According to the dissertation of Dr Tsu-Tsair Oliver CHI concerning the mechanism of infrared radiant heat on the human body. Our body organs absorb the infrared selectively. When a muscle or an organ has absorbed sufficient radiant heat, the next infrared rays pass without causing any effect, but any damaged muscles or organs will carry on absorbing the infrared rays. This is what is called resumate absorption.
This type of thermal system has produced brilliant results which have been reported by many doctors and scientists. The following health problems have been particularly benefited by regular use of infrared saunas, arthritis, backache, menstrual pain, muscular cramps, rheumatoid arthritis, low blood pressure and bronchitis. These and many other health problems have been improved by infrared therapy.
It is therefore considered that a radiant heat infrared sauna can be an essential part of any programme for staying healthy.
DETOX YOUR BODY
A Zoki infra-red sauna promotes deep cleansing and has the capacity to flush out of your system the many toxins and poisons stored in your body, which can have a detrimental effect on your health.
Also, after a few weeks of regular use you will notice, your skin will start to show a healthier tone, colour, and texture, it is without doubt the most pleasant and therapeutic way to a healthier future.
WEIGHT CONTROL
Depending on the person, a 30 minute session in a Zoki infra red sauna sauna can result in up to 800 calories being used or the equivalent of a long run.
Also , because of the deep tissue penetration it is one of the fastest and most effective ways of dealing with cellulite.
HEALTH BENEFITS
Doctors have successfully used this type of radiant heat on various backache problems, arthritis, high blood pressure, sports injuries and rheumatoid joint problems.
A Zoki infra red sauna also has the capacity to flush out the many toxins and poisons stored in your body, helping you fight many diseases.
RELAXATION THERAPY
Used regularly a Zoki infra red sauna will break down the build up of tension and greatly increase your flexibility. This then creates a feeling of total well being making you very relaxed and ready to face whatever may come your way.
PASSIVE CARDIOVASCULAR CONDITIONING EFFECTS
It has been reported in the journal of the American Medical Association that regular use of a Radiant Heat Sauna may place a similar stress on the cardiovascular system and be just as effective a means of conditioning and burning off calories as regular exercise.
The heat of the infrared rays generated by the thermal system go deep into the body’s tissues and internal organs, making the body respond to this by increasing both heart volume and rate.
Medical research confirms that when the body works to cool itself a substantial increase in heart and cardiac output occur.
Validity of this form of cardiovascular conditioning was confirmed after extensive research by N.A.S.A.
The conclusion was that this form of Infrared stimulation of the cardiovascular function would be an ideal way to obtain cardiovascular conditioning in American astronauts on long space flights.
Infrared saunas harness light to create heat. This infrared heat penetrates the skin deep into muscle, tissue, and blood cells, producing a detoxifying sweat that rids the body of impurity within cells where toxins and harmful substances build up. The act of sweating helps your body purge itself of dirt, oil and other matters that build up within the skin, thus improving the health of your skin and its overall appearance.
Moreover, when temperatures rise within an infrared sauna experience, blood circulation improves. Blood begins to move more effectively from the internal regions of the body to peripheral parts of the body, namely the skin.
Improved blood flow aids the body in delivering oxygen to injured or damaged areas with high a turnover to healthy skin cells. This mechanism can help the skin in many ways, perhaps most noticeably in the area of scar recovery. With blood flowing through the body in a more efficient manner, you can expect to see clearer, softer, and healthier-looking skin as a result. You may find you’ll experience a resurgence of youthful vitality!
A study published in ‘The Journal of Cosmetic and Laser Therapy’ has shown that significant improvements in skin appearance can be realised after just 12 weeks of skin therapy using infrared technology. Participants within this study experienced a reduction in wrinkles and improved overall skin tone, including softness, smoothness, elasticity, clarity, and firmness.
These are just some of the many infrared saunas skin benefits you can experience . Continue reading for more explanation on how an infrared sauna can improve the quality of your skin!
1. Infrared Saunas Can Help with Skin Conditions
Low level light therapy is often used to treat skin conditions such as acne prone skin, psoriasis and eczema. An infrared sauna used for skin conditions is no different. Infrared saunas provide a non-invasive, relaxing, and refreshing approach to soothe itchy, sore, dry, and reddened skin as well as acne treatment, helping oneself manage the symptoms of skin conditions.
The warm rays emitted by an infrared sauna works to clear skin pores that were previously blocked, allowing the sebaceous gland within the skin to function without obstruction. The sebaceous gland, which creates sebum that helps maintain the skin, can be unblocked through sweat induced by an infrared sauna, subsequently preventing acne from developing. Moreover, than treating acne, regular sauna use can help control skin inflammation and promote skin rejuvenation, minimising the constant itch that is often associated with eczema and psoriasis.
Infrared rays’ exposure deeply penetrates your skin and increases circulation, assisting in alleviating troublesome skin conditions by:
Removing dead skin cells
Delivering nutrient supplies to the epidermis
Flushing toxins from the skin
Supporting and strengthening the immune system
Decreasing stress and promotion relaxation, thus preventing skin breakouts
Purging clogged pores to release deeply embedded impurities
Managing triggers that may cause flare-ups or skin breakouts
As you can see, infrared sauna therapy works to alleviate stress, boost the immune system, and cleanse the body of harmful toxins. As many skin conditions such as acne, eczema and psoriasis can worsen as a result of stress, a weak immune system, and toxins, it is clear that the use of infrared sauna for skin conditions is an excellent remedy.
2. Infrared Sauna Skin Detoxification
If you’ve been wondering, “does a sauna clean your pores?” the short answer is yes! The heavy sweating induced by infrared sauna therapy has a cleansing effect on pores and glands, flushing toxins and impurities from within the skin. As a result of regular sauna treatment, your skin will be less prone to acne, blackheads, and pimples.3. Infrared Saunas Can Reduce Wrinkles
Looking for a quickfire solution to ageing? Consider infrared sauna therapy for skin tightening; infrared sauna therapy will flush out toxins from your skin through sweat, improving tone, elasticity, and firmness of the skin, leaving you with a youthful glow. As a result of light from infrared saunas flushing out toxins from your skin, you’ll experience smoother and tighter skin with more room to breathe.
Moreover, the rays exuded from infrared saunas stimulates collagen and elastin production. Collagen and elastin will help plump and firm your skin, alleviating stretch marks and cellulite in the process. Expelling those dead skin cells from your body clears out the pores and stimulates healthy circulation.
4. Infrared Can Improve Skin Tone and Glow
According to a study published in the ‘Yonsei Medical Journal’ entitled ‘Effects of Infrared Radiation on Skin Photo-Aging and Pigmentation’, patients reported fair improvement in their skin tone and colour after continued, regular infrared treatment.
The sweat exuded from the body as a result of infrared sauna treatment removes deeply embedded impurities, cleansing pores of toxins and expelling dead skin cells. A reduction in impurities, toxins and dead skins will bring colour and life back to your skin, improving tone, texture, colour, and elasticity. Clean, clear, and healthy skin will restore a glow to your skin that you’ll love!
5. Infrared Saunas Can Support Healthy Wound Healing
Infrared saunas have the remarkable ability to speed up the wound healing process. This is because infrared sauna therapy accelerates cell regeneration, supports enhanced tissue growth, and has proven results in healing skin burns and scars. Our skin is responsible for protecting and regulating the body against and amidst harmful substances; if the skin is damaged its ability to perform these functions may become impaired and leave you vulnerable to various illnesses or bacteria. As such, the beneficial properties of infrared sauna for skin should be used as a mechanism of defence against harmful substances.
A study published within the ‘Journal of Clinical Laser Medicine & Surgery’ showed that human cell growth increased by 155-171% in some cases, and wound size decreased by 36% after infrared sauna therapy.
Abstract
Infrared radiation is increasingly and uncritically used for cosmetic and wellness purposes, despite the poorly understood biologic effects of such treatments on humans. In the present study, we investigated the effects of infrared radiation on collagen and elastin production in dermal fibroblasts, as well as the clinical and histopathologic effects of infrared radiation on photo-aged facial skin lesions. In order to determine the effects of infrared radiation on collagen and elastin production, dermal fibroblasts were exposed to infrared radiation for varying lengths of time and collagen and elastin contents were subsequently determined. Additionally, 20 patients with mild to moderate facial wrinkles and hyperpigmented lesions received daily treatments of far infrared radiation for six-months. During the treatment, patients and a medical observer conducted independent photographic and clinical evaluations every 4 weeks, and skin biopsies were obtained for histological analysis at baseline and one-month post-treatment. We found that the content of collagen and elastin produced by the fibroblasts increased after infrared radiation, and that this increase was proportional to the duration of irradiation exposure. Following 6 months of treatment, all patients reported good (51-75%) improvements in skin texture and roughness. Additionally, patients noted fair (25-50%) improvement in colour tone of the skin; however, improvements in hyperpigmented lesions were not observed. Objective medical evaluation of the patients indicated that roughness and laxity were fairly improved, but there was no significant improvement in hyperpigmented lesions. Histological examination failed to reveal any differences as well. These results suggest that infrared radiation may have beneficial effects on skin texture and wrinkles by increasing collagen and elastin contents from the stimulated fibroblasts. Therefore, skin treatment with infrared radiation may be an effective and safe non-ablative remodelling method and may also be useful in the treatment of photo-aged skin.
