Infrared sauna or traditional sauna?
Answer:Infrared sauna is much better than the traditional sauna.
Infrared radiant heat in an infrared sauna is safe. The heat penetrates more than 1.5 inches into the body. It knock loose toxins from fat cells into the body which are then released into through sweating. It heals and stimulates tissues, and that it is effective therapy for arthritis and tissue injuries. Some doctors even claimed that Infrared sauna is the only way of removing man-made toxins from your body. Bio-accumulated toxic load in the human body is responsible for all disease not attributable to bacteria or virus.
I think that it would be better to enjoy a traditional sauna...since the IR one uses heaters to directly produce heat on the user, it's more likely that your skin will dry out faster, not too mention more stuffy in terms of breathing...the traditional one provides the steam treatment which keeps the skin moist as well as making it easier to breathe if you're staying in there for a while..it's really up to you. :)
