Our studio uses Infrared heaters. Infrared heat works like the
sun, radiating heat instantly to the person or objects
within their beam. Typical Hot Yoga rooms use convection
heat which heats the skin superficially and only 3% of
this sweat is the body’s toxins. With infrared heating
the rays safely and comfortably penetrates the skin up
to 2" deep, even your organs and deep tissues are
stimulated. This stimulation activates your sweat glands
2 to 3 times more than a conventional hot yoga class,
offering you a greater degree of detoxification. As the
infrared waves are absorbed by your body, molecules
begin to vibrate, causing them to start to expel the
toxins, fat and impurities from your cells into your
blood stream. These will then be released from your body
in the form of sweat. The result is an incredible
detoxifying effect at a cellular level. Your muscles and
internal organs will be gently warmed. This form of heat
is perfectly safe. Hospitals use infrared heat to keep
premature babies warm. 80% of the light that makes it to
Earth is infrared, making it a form of light that is
easily processed by our bodies.
Additional health benefits of infrared heat are; Fat burning, boosts
metabolism, reduces cellulite, pain relief, improves immune function,
improves skin complexion and helps with arthritis.
Infrared heating is also extremely energy efficient reducing energy
consumption between 60% and 80% over traditional heating.
