The advantages of an infrared cabin

Sweating in the sauna or in the infrared cabin?

Should you sweat in the sauna or in the infrared cabin? The question of which is the better option is not so easy to answer. Everyone should actually have both at their disposal. But for those who have to decide, the infrared cabin offers a number of advantages.

Healthy sweating with the infrared cabin

Sweating strengthens the immune system, with the greatest effect being achieved through the change in temperature. If you take a dip in the plunge pool after the sauna, you increase the health benefits of your sauna visit. However, if you have a medical condition, you should consult a doctor before visiting the sauna or infrared cabin.

Regular sweating leads to changes in the body's defence mechanisms. Thermal stimuli promote the formation of "killer cells", which help with illnesses. The positive effect of sweating is particularly evident during the cold season.

The metabolism and muscles are also positively influenced. The body detoxifies and eliminates toxins. Important: Regular sauna sessions or visits to the infrared cabin are necessary for this positive effect. If you just want to relax, even a single visit is beneficial.

How does the infrared cabin work?

In a normal sauna, the temperature is so high that the body is heated up. The sauna heater generates heat. In an infrared cabin, on the other hand, temperatures of up to 60 °C are reached. Surface heating elements on the walls of the cabin generate the heat. The heat is only generated on the skin when it hits it. The body generates the heat itself, which further strengthens the immune system.

Advantages of the infrared cabin

  • The heat penetrates deep into the body and acts directly on the skin. This is particularly beneficial for joint problems and tension.
  • Sweating helps with detoxification and improves the metabolism.
  • The infrared rays are similar to the effect of sunlight and promote the release of endorphins.
  • The infrared cabin is more energy-efficient than a conventional sauna.
  • The infrared cabin requires less space.

Further plus points

Sweating is good for the body and makes us feel good. The infrared cabin can increase this positive effect even more because it ensures that the energy balance in the body is improved. This is achieved by detoxifying the body on the one hand and supplying it with more oxygen on the other. Overall blood circulation is improved, which means that more oxygen can be transported.

Sweating can even make skin problems practically vanish into thin air. The reason:

Sweating also removes toxins from the skin, and sweat carries impurities to the outside. While sweating is produced from the outside in the sauna, the body has to sweat from the inside out, so to speak, in the infrared cabin. Pollutants are thus better removed. The skin is cleansed and the pores are more or less flushed out. A single visit to the infrared cabin is sufficient for this, although the effect is of course better if the cabin is visited regularly. Several visits to the sauna are necessary, in between the body cools down again and again in the plunge pool or under the shower. Use of the infrared cabin lasts a maximum of half an hour, but can also be finished after 20 minutes. More sweat is released during this time, so this comparatively short visit is perfectly adequate. A visit to the sauna takes considerably longer. The first session lasts around a quarter of an hour, followed by the application of cold water. The rest period lasts half an hour. This is followed by the second course. A total of three sessions are recommended. The infrared cabin is therefore also suitable for people who have a little less time and still want to do something for their health and well-being.

The sauna is also suitable for children, although children should be at least six years old. A doctor should also be consulted beforehand. As the temperatures in the infrared cabin are significantly lower, children can be taken here at an earlier age. Pregnant women also often find the infrared cabin more pleasant. In any case, it should be emphasised once again that a doctor should be consulted in advance. This is because it is not completely safe to visit the infrared cabin if, for example, you have a circulatory disorder, are pregnant or have a health impairment. If you really want to enjoy the infrared cabin, you should consult a doctor beforehand.
