THE SCIENCE

^{_______________________________________________}

Sauna experiences have been used throughout history to enhance human health—sweating as a method of detoxifying. However, most methods are unable to effectively penetrate human tissue and are often not well tolerated.

Infrared heat, found in the sunlight, is required by all living things and is void of harmful UV rays. Infrared saunas surround you with FAR infrared energy which deeply penetrates skin tissue, joints and muscles—increasing oxygen flow and circulation. Full-spectrum saunas, like the ones you will find at DROP, incorporate NEAR, MID & FAR infrared energy. This thorough penetration allows up to seven times (20%) more detoxification than typical sweating (2-3%). This process helps drive impurities from fat cells where heavy toxins and waste are stored.

With all that we come in contact with in our daily lives, there is no doubt we are all in need of consistent, quality detox—and the list of reported health benefits is astounding. Where do we begin?!

THE BENEFITS

^{_______________________________________________}

DETOX Remove toxins that can lead to disease and common illness. Sweating is undoubtedly the body’s most organic mechanism to heal. Sauna detox is gaining ground in the world of alternative medicine—as clients, consumers, and 'patients' are demanding a more natural approach to self-care. Feel the Infrared difference with up to 7 times the toxin release. As a society, we minimize the effects that stress, anxiety and chronic fatigue have on overall health. We live in a time where the 'fight or flight' response has become the norm—skyrocketing our level of stress hormones. Relaxation plays a key role in reversing stress related problems. The efficient heat of an infrared sauna unlocks tension and deeply relaxes muscles, allowing stubborn toxins to be released. STRESS RELIEF

Burn up to 600 calories while relaxing during a 40-minute session! Should you decide to add light weights or ‘infra-hot yoga’, you may burn even more, while also toning muscle and gaining flexibility. As the natural cool down process occurs, heart rate will increase—boosting metabolism. WEIGHT LOSS Infrared heat increases overall circulation, which aids in tissue, joint and muscle repair. The burden of sore muscles, minor aches and pains, or chronic pain, can be minimized with consistent sauna use. Athletes and pain management physicians are considering infrared therapy more and more—allowing the body to heal naturally. SPORTS RECOVERY & PAIN RELIEF

Regularly heating your body from the inside-out can eliminate toxins, clearing the path to create healthy new cells. This translates to less sick time—more happy, healthy time! IMPROVED IMMUNITY Beautiful skin is possibly the best 'side effect' of infrared use.  Intense sweat and toxin release forces skin cells to rejuvenate and replenish at a rapid rate—promoting anti-aging—resulting in glowing, clear, elastic skin. When skin is broken or scarred, near infrared rays help put healing on the fast track. SKIN HEALTH

Several studies have now shown that infrared sauna therapy is associated with improved circulation, lower blood pressure and a decreased risk of cardiac disease. Much like aerobic activity, infrared heat therapy increases heart rate and promotes cardiovascular conditioning—with minimal exertion. Improved cardiovascular function yields the benefit of increased energy and longevity. HEART HEALTH At DROP, we are committed to our friends battling disease. Disease is part of our world; our reality. Let’s come together and heal. Infrared sauna therapy has been recommended in the treatment of many disease states—including diabetes and certain autoimmune disorders, such as lymes and fibromyalgia. Infrared can be used to detoxify the after effects of chemotherapy and radiation—and of course, in the prevention of any disease. ACTIVE DISEASE/ REMISSION
