What
makes Health Mate different? Safe, effective radiant heat, just like the
sun's soothing warmth. Radiant heat is more efficient because it warms
you, not the air. Your body directly absorbs as much as 93% of the heat
generated by your Health Mate sauna.
Uses Less EnergyThe Health Mate sauna costs less to operate because it uses very little energy - about the same amount used by a hair dryer or toaster oven. And it takes only 5 to 10 minutes to preheat, not the 30 to 60 minutes required by traditional saunas. Effective at Lower TemperatureHealth Mate saunas operate at safer, more comfortable temperatures than other saunas, only 110 - 150°F. Its radiant heat reaches deep, to be absorbed by your body as much as 1.5 inches below the skin, while producing 2 to 3 times more sweat than other saunas.

| Traditional saunas rely on a stove to heat the air to as hot as 220 °F. The energy they require can as much as double your electricity bill. And to be effective, this superheated air must remain tightly enclosed, resulting in a stifling, suffocating environment. By contrast, Health Mate saunas allow fresh air to circulate for ventilation and maximum comfort | ||

Burns Calories and Controls WeightAs you relax in the gentle heat of the Health Mate sauna, your body is actually hard at work, producing sweat, pumping blood - and burning calories. Acording to a Journal of the American Medical Association report, in a single sauna session you may burn as many calories as you would rowing or jogging for 30 minutes. So you lose weight - not just water. Increases Blood Circulation and Strengthens the Cardiovascular System |
|
| As
your body increases sweat production to cool itself, your heart works
harder pumping blood at a greater rate to boost circulation, supplying the
conditioning benefits of continuous exercise. Heart rate, cardiac output
and metabolic rate increase, while diastolic blood pressure drops, for
improved overall cardiovascular fitness.
"Many of us who run do so to place a demand on our cardiovascular systems, not to build big leg muscles. Regular use of a sauna may impart similar stress on the cardiovascular system. and its regular use may be as effective as a means of cardiovascular conditioning and burning of calories as regular exercise.... A moderately conditioned person can easily sweat off 500 gms. in sauna, consuming nearly 300 calories." Journal of the American Medical Association. August 7, 1981 Relieves PainThe deep heat of your Health Mate sauna helps peripheral blood vessels dilate, bringing relief and healing to muscle and soft tissue injuries. Increased blood circulation carries off metabolic waste products and delivers oxygen-rich blood to oxygen-depleted muscle, so they recover faster. Muscles relax most readily when tissues are warm, for greater flexibility and range of motion. Eases joint Pain and StiffnessIn Europe, radiant heat therapy is widely used to treat patients suffering from many forms of arthritis. In addition, it has been proved effective in the treatment of sprains, neuralgia, bursitis, muscle spasms, joint stiffness and many other muscular-skeletal ailments. Much of the stiffness, aches and soreness that comes with aging is reduced or eliminated.

Clears CelluliteHealth Mate saunas help clear ugly cellulite, the gel-like lumps of fat, water and debris trapped in pockets beneath the skin. European beauty specialists routinely incorporate daily saunas in programs to reduce cellulite. And because the radiant heat of the Health Mate sauna warms three times as deeply as conventional saunas, it is significantly more effective at reducing cellulite. Removes Toxins and Mineral WasteIncreased blood circulation stimulates the sweat glands, releasing built-up toxins and waste. Daily sweating can help detoxify your body as it rids itself of an accumulation of potentially carcinogenic heavy metals (lead, mercury, zinc, nickel, cadmium) as well as alcohol, nicotine, sodium, sulfuric acid and cholesterol. |

Improves SkinThe profuse sweating achieved after just a few minutes in the Health Mate sauna carries off deeply imbedded impurities and dead skin cells, leaving the skin glowing and immaculately clean, Increased circulation draws your skin's own natural nutrients to the surface. You'll see improved tone, elasticity, texture and fresh color. Increased blood circulation has also been shown to relieve acne, eczema, psoriasis, burns, lesions and cuts. In addition, open wounds heal more quickly, reducing scarring. Improves the Immune SystemSauna's deep heat raises your body temperature, inducing an artifical fever. As it works to combat the "fever," your body's immune system is strengthened. Combined with the elimination of toxins and wastes produced by the intense sweating, your overall health and resistance to disease is increased. Reduces Stress and FatiguePerhaps the most immediate relief your Health Mate sauna offers is simple relaxation, as it melts away the stresses and tensions of urban life. Just a few minutes in the gentle warmth of your Health Mate sauna gives you an overall massaging effect, soothing jangled nerves and knotted muscles. You'll feel rejuvenated and renewed, restored in both body and mind. |
