Infrared heat is the most comfortable form of heat because it heats your body similar to the sun and here are some ways it has been shown to be beneficial for your mental and physical health.
When working out with infrared heat, you receive the therapeutic benefits of infrared as well as the workout!
Much like a heating pad for aches and pains, infrared heat is actively easing pain and
inflammation in muscles and joints. The far wavelength of infrared works to delve deep and
gently heat from within the body. The increased blood circulation from infrared brings
oxygenated blood to oxygen depleted muscles, helping alleviate symptoms of arthritis. Helping
ease into your signature yoga pose or relax or your cooldown.
Raising your core temperature, infrared heat increases your perspiration levels and
detoxifies your body.
Detoxification aids in increased immunity and improves your biochemical
processes which includes your digestive system.
Exposure to infrared heat has been shown to mimic the effects of antidepressants and
release serotonin.
Humans are exposed to infrared heat everyday from the sun and the lack of
heat in the fall and winter can lead to Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) also known as
seasonal depression. Studies have shown that 6 weeks of regular exposure to infrared
treatment improved the severity of depression in individuals compared to those with low heat
treatments. There’s a reason you feel so good after an infrared hot yoga class!
Using infrared heat brings the ultimate comfort to your workout.
Making strenuous movements comfortable during your workout and aiding in recovery to get back to what you love to do. Our Cove heaters are used in many commercial and home yoga studios, and our new
