Infrared is the natural radiation produced by all warm objects – from
the sun or a tiled stove to our own bodies. It was pure chance that led
the English astronomer Sir William Herschel in 1800 to discover that the
heat given off by the sun’s radiation increases at the red end of the
visible spectrum. We cannot see infra-red radiation, but we can feel it,
and there is no doubting its effects.
Radiation emitted by an infra-red source heats the skin and the
underlying tissue layers very efficiently. This heat is then transmitted
to the whole body through the circulatory system.
Infra-red is a safe form of long-wave radiation and an excellent way to
relax and increase your general sense of well-being without side effects.

Scientific studies have shown that a thirty minute session in an
infrared sauna can result in the loss of toxins and stored fats in
the body by up to six times the level a traditional sauna or
exercise alone can achieve. Infrared is the only heat that pentrates
deep enough into the tissues of the body to melt away cellulite and
fats and the unique light wavelengths act to break down dangerous
toxins and acids in the body.
Compared to a session in a
traditional sauna, you can perspire up to three times more,
resulting in these fragmented impurities being safely eliminated by
the body through perspiration.
An added health benefit of using
an infrared sauna is weight loss. Your body will use up to 600
calories in just 30 comfortable minutes.

Infrared heat helps to promote the body's capillary system which
will increase blood circulation to the surface of the skin. As a
result, you will see a noticeable improvement in your skins
firmness, texture, complexion and tone. You may also find that
wounds heal with significantly reduced scarring due to the super
cleansing effects of the penetrative rays.

Because of the deep penetrating heat from infrared, health
professionals have used infrared lamps for many years to treat
muscle and joint problems. Infrared technology ensures an increased
flow of oxygen rich blood to painful areas which helps to ease aches
and pains, stiffness or soreness from arthritic conditions, tired,
overworked muscles or even poor posture.
| | | Keep your heart healthy |  | |
As you perspire more, your heart works harder to pump blood through
your body. A thirty minute session in a Domo infrared sauna is
equivalent to walking or jogging for 10 to 15 kilometres. All this
without leaving the relaxing warmth of your sauna and without any
dangerous impact on your joints.
| | | Reduce unsightly cellulite |  | |
In order to reduce cellulite, European beauty specialists regularly
incorporate sauna sessions into beauty programmes. Because the
radiant infrared heat penetrates three times as deeply as
conventional saunas, it is therefore significantly more effective at
breaking down hard to move cellulite resulting in a more youthful,
beautiful complexion.

Combat the effects of daily stress and wake up your immune system.
Deep radiant infrared heat results in a raising of your body's
temperature which actually induces an artificial fever. This, in
turn, activates and stimulates your body's immune system. Combined
with the elimination of toxins and wastes from your body, your
overall health and resistance to disease is noticeably improved so
you feel and look better.

There are three different heating systems in the Domo range of infra-red
cabins, each using a different method to radiate heat:
the starter model introducing the modern world of Wellness
the standard model for individualistswith a feeling for natural vitality
the superior cabin for those looking for a more distinctive Wellness
experience
The heating process in an infrared cabin is based on the same principle
as heating from the sun (radiation). In a traditional sauna, heat is
generated through hot air (convection).
