Question:
Does anyone have any knowledge or experience about far infrared, such
as the Hsin Ten "Hot House"?
Answer:
I am also interested in the Hot House, and have not been able to find any
other FIR devices out there except the saunas. Most of the "Infra Red"
saunas are not FIR. The ones that are truly Far Infra Red are quite pricey
($4,500 for a 4' x 6' x 6').
Far infra red (4 - 18 micron) truly does penetrate 1.5 - 2" into the body
increasing metabolism and cardio vascular flow without the skin irritation
of other heat methods. One study I read from one of the Boston medical
research groups found FIR effectively killed bacteria and viruses in the
system. a FIR treated group showed no trace of flu virus after two days
while the untreated group still showed traces after six days.
One claim made for the Hot House is increased expulsion of heavy metals. I
question how that is possible as people who have used the product claim they
do not sweat. In the FIR sauna, one sweats significantly more than in a
traditional sauna (deeper heating and longer times possible). As you will note from the subject, we are a leading Manufacturers and Exporters of Infrared Heat(Sauna) Cabin. Because of the Infrared systems offer potential health benefits safely, it has been selling successfully throughout the Far East, North America and Europe into leisure, swimming pools, health clubs, sports clubs, hotels and many homes. For more information, please feel free look at our home pages- http://www.healthpartner-sauna.com- you can figure out the wonderful secret of Infrared Rays and the Infrared Heat(Sauna) Cabin certainly.
An important consideration to keep in mind is the safety of the sauna. My history with
steam cabinets began fifty years ago and I know of no negative side effects in using a
sauna. I recently spoke with the president of Battle Creek Equipment Company, started by
Dr. Kellogg (the originator of infrared sauna), and they have no claims or reports of
problems associated with their sauna history. Dr. Kellogg created the first modern
infrared sauna cabinet in 1891 and he often remarked on the safety of the product.
