The benefits of Aesta’s Far Infrared Radiant Heat

Print This Page

For over two thousand years people have turned to heat therapy as a source of Natural Healing for many illnesses and discomforts. Activated by heat, the natural earth minerals in Aesta’s Sauna Dome and Ion Mats emit Far Infrared Radiant Energy that is absorbed by human cells, causing a physical phenomenon called resonance. The cellular activities are instantly invigorated, resulting in a better blood circulation and an overall improved metabolism.

Now there is a simple and affordable way for you to increase vital energy, loose weight, decrease stress, detoxify the body and purify the skin while elevating the immune system to fight off everything from the common cold to serious life quality threatening illnesses. You receive all of these wellness advantages while relaxing for 15 to 30 minutes a day three or four times a week listening to music or watching TV. It can’t get any easier.

Read the following and learn about the many health benefits of the Aesta Sauna Dome and Aesta Ion Mats:

Aesta’s natural and safe relief of pain, stiffness and aches

The FDA and hundreds of scientific, clinical, university and medical studies agree that Far-Infrared Heat Therapy relieves pain.

Pain robs us of our quality of life. Prescription drugs are addictive, with dangerous side-effects. Aesta’s Infrared radiant heat products produce deep, soothing and penetrating heat for the relief of arthritis, rheumatism, headaches, sore backs, muscle aches and spasms as well as many other painful maladies. FIR heat relieves pain by expanding blood vessels, increasing circulation and improving lymph flow. Better circulation allows more oxygen to reach injured areas of the body and helps to reduce pain and speed up the healing process. This deep and gentle radiant heat also relieves soreness, swelling and lactic acid from exercise.

Far Infrared Radiant Heat Therapy is recommended by many therapists and physicians to treat chronic pain, including Fibromyalgia. It is also effective in reducing inflammation and swelling.

Aesta helps with Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

FMS (Fibromyalgia syndrome) is a widespread musculoskeletal pain and fatigue disorder for which the cause is still unknown. Fibromyalgia means pain in the muscles, ligaments and tendons; the fibrous tissues in the body.

Far Infrared Heat Therapy has proven to be beneficial in the relief of Fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome. It helps to restore normal autonomic nervous system functioning. This is the part of the nervous system which governs unconscious functions such as muscle tension, sweating, blood pressure, digestion and balance. Although the exact cause of Fibromyalgia is not known, a number of doctors now believe that the "net toxic load" of these patients is very high and their detoxification pathways are often compromised. A number of these patients are unknowingly suffering from heavy metal poisoning (i.e. mercury, lead and arsenic). When a person suffering from Fibromyalgia or chronic fatigue syndrome is able to reduce their overall toxicity level, their symptoms often improve.

The Aesta Sauna Dome and the Aesta Ion Mat are effective for the relief of pain, aches and tension that accompanies this syndrome.

Research has shown that Chronic Fatigue syndrome, like Fibromyalgia, is a complicated affliction that has its roots in physical, emotional or environmental stress. Most successful treatments are historically multi-faceted. Essentially, though, it's a combination of getting the bad out (toxins) and putting in the good (vital nutrients, clean restructured water and clean air.) The Aesta Sauna Dome and the Aesta Ion Mat helps to expel the heavy metals and toxins that are generally accepted as causing the immune system breakdown.

Aesta helps to reduce swelling and inflammation

The healing process is significantly enhanced using an Aesta Sauna Dome or Aesta Ion Mat. Far Infrared Radiant Heat Therapy relieves pain, swelling and inflammation by expanding blood vessels, increasing circulation and improving lymph flow. Better circulation allows more oxygen to reach injured areas of the body thereby speeding up the healing process. This gentle radiant heat also relieves soreness, swelling and lactic acid from exercise.

In addition, by stimulating vasodilatation of peripheral blood vessels and enhancing the body's delivery of oxygen to joints and extremities, it is believed to speed the healing of sprains and strains, thereby relieving pain and reducing the time it takes the body to recover from an injury.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

One of the fastest growing complaints in this country today, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) responds to FIR as well. CTS is caused by motion and trauma to the median nerve passing through the wrist. Assembly line workers are particularly prone to the problem. The standard medical treatment for CTS is still surgery, which has a dismal success rate of less than 10%. Dr. Wayne Good, the plant physician at General Motors Flint Assembly, has treated close to 600 patients (with FIR) and achieved positive results in over 70% of patients. He is in the process of submitting his results for publication as further studies continue.

Aesta reduces stress, tiredness and fatigue

Probably the most immediate effect of the Aesta Sauna Dome or the Aesta Ion Mat that you’ll notice is immense relaxation. Read, listen to music or meditate in the comfortable warmth while the stress of life melts away leaving behind a feeling of total rejuvenation. In this relaxing atmosphere take pleasure in all the amenities, as well as the health wonders provided Mother Nature and Aesta’s Far Infrared Radiant Heat. We incorporate only the latest, safest and best in FIR technology.

In today's hectic world, we are rarely able to take time for ourselves, to relax, and just let our bodies rest. It has been proven time and time again that stress plays a huge role in our physical health and mental well-being. A sauna session is a great way to kick back with a good book or your favorite music and just relax.

Infrared heat therapy loosens muscles and relaxes the whole body. You will find it hard to believe that something that feels this good is actually one of the best healing therapies for your vital health.

Detoxification of heavy metals and other toxins in the body

Most of us are familiar with the liver and kidneys as filters, however many of us are not aware of the fact that the skin is the body's largest organ and is an excellent detoxifier. Typically it handles up to 30% of the toxic load on the body. Although any type of sweating is healthy and detoxifying, nothing can compare to the detox of an Aesta Sauna Dome or Aesta Sauna Mat.

With deep radiant heat, your body will sweat more than in conventional old fashioned Saunas. The heat goes deep into the fat tissue. You'll experience a cleansing of harmful toxins from the body while you melt calories away. In one study performed by American researchers, the sweat of people using a conventional sauna was found to be 95 to 97% water while the sweat of those using an infrared thermal system was 80 to 85% water with the non-water portion principally cholesterol, fat-soluble toxins, toxic heavy metals (such as mercury and aluminum), sulfuric acid, sodium, ammonia and uric acid.

Far Infrared is thought to be 7 times more effective at detoxifying heavy metals such as mercury, aluminum, and even cholesterol's, nicotine, alcohol, ammonia, sulfuric acid and other environmental toxins, as opposed to conventional heat or steam saunas. Repeated use of an Aesta Sauna Dome or Aesta Ion Mat slowly restores the skins natural abilities for toxic elimination better than any other method without the need for rigorous exercise which may be difficult or impossible for many people.

Aesta burns calories and helps you to lose and control your weight

Far Infrared Radiant Heat Therapy is not a complete answer to overnight weight loss, but it can help play a major roll in maintaining a healthy weight or shedding a few pounds, especially when combined with a regular exercise routine and healthy eating. Perspiring is part of the complex thermo-regulatory process of the body that increases the heart rate, cardiac output, and metabolic rate. The process requires a large amount of energy and reduces excess moisture, salt and subcutaneous fat. Fat becomes water soluble and the body sweats it out along with toxins. Detoxifying the body helps in weight control.

People who have unsuccessfully tried many diets often find success with Aesta Sauna Dome and the Aesta Ion Mat because they are able to eliminate chemicals stored in your cells. This makes weight control much easier. I say control because detoxifying will also help those who have a problem keeping their weight up to normal.

The Aesta Sauna Dome and the Aesta Ion Mat assists in weight control in three significant ways:

Aesta improves the metabolism

The deep radiant heat produced by the Aesta Sauna Dome and The Aesta Ion Mat speeds up metabolic processes of vital organs and inhabits the growth of pathogenic bacteria and viruses. The vital organs and glands (including endocrine and sex glands) are stimulated to increased activity. Greater cellular energy production facilitates healing. Viruses, tumors and toxin-laden cells are weaker than normal cells as they tolerate heat poorly. Raising the body temperature causes infections to heal more quickly. Hyperthermia or fever therapy helps combat infections and even cancer. Our bodies develop fever when ill to enhance metabolism and help kill harmful micro organisms.

Aesta helps you to gain and maintain your energy

In just minutes the Aesta’s Far Infrared healing heat will deeply relax the body. Used as day therapy in the home or in a clinic, rapid rest and restoration of energy and release of tension is quickly achieved. Read, listen to music or meditate in the comfortable warmth while the stress of life melts away leaving behind a feeling of total rejuvenation.

Rest, recuperate and detoxify your body with the finest in FIR Technology. Then get on with your life knowing you have the power and energy to cope.

Aesta helps to prevent and remove cellulite

Many women are plagued by cellulite. Cellulite is a gel-like substance made up of fat, water and wastes, which are trapped in pockets below the skin. Aesta Far-Infrared Heat Treatments can assist this condition, as profuse sweating helps clear this form of unwanted debris from the body. It will also burn calories and increase overall health and resistance to disease. Far Infrared heating of the tissues enhances metabolic processes and through deep penetration of fat cells clears away cellulite.

Far Infrared Therapy is safer and more beneficial than most other treatments because of the energy expenditure. It works to eliminate stubborn fat, water and wastes trapped in skin pockets that make up unsightly cellulite. The Aesta Sauna Dome and the Aesta Ion Mat places a greater demand on the body in terms of using up calories, thus assisting in fat and cellulite loss. Because radiant heat is capable of more than twice the depth of ordinary heat penetration, it will combat cellulite to a greater extent than conventional saunas.

In general all Saunas can help to clear away ugly cellulite. European beauty specialists routinely incorporate daily saunas in their programs to reduce cellulite. But the radiant heat of the Aesta Far-Infrared Sauna Dome and the Aesta Ion Mat warms more deeply than conventional saunas. It also provides 10 times the level of heating in these tissues. This powerful combination is significantly more effective at reducing cellulite.

Through deep penetration of fat cells, radiant heat therapy definitely helps to clear away cellulite.

Aesta improves skin appearance and skin condition

Most beauty and skin care products offer only external and superficial treatments to dermatological problems. Far infrared energy works from the outside in, emitting the full bio-spectrum that penetrates the deep layers of the skin.

The use of an Aesta Sauna Dome or an Aesta Ion Mat has many positive benefits for your skin. In addition to freeing our skin of many of the toxins that accumulate as a result of the use of chemical-laden soaps, conditioners, make-up, etc.; the increased blood circulation to the skin brings more nutrients to the surface, thus promoting healthy tone and texture. The improved circulation also expels dirt and removes dead cells on the surface of the skin. All of these benefits lead to a more supple, softer, smoother and firmer complexion.
The Journal of American Medical Association, August 1981 reported:
“Improved Skin Conditioning: Increased blood circulation and deep cleansing of impurities improves skin tone and elasticity. Research reports improvements in acne, rashes, burns and skin lesions. Users describe skin as “more youthful and radiant!

Aesta boosts and improves the immune system and enhances white blood cell function

The Aesta Sauna Dome and the Aesta Ion Mat create a false fever that can kill potentially dangerous viruses/bacteria and increase the number of leukocytes in the blood, thereby strengthening the immune system. The leukocyte, macrophage, NK cells and T cells are activated (the immune power is strengthened over 200 times by raising the body core temperature up to 3.5 degrees C) As well, you perk up your immune system by sweating at a lower more comfortable temperature than a conventional hot sauna. This also enhances circulation and oxygenates the tissues. What's more, the gentle healing heat opens the nasal passages and assists the sinuses to drain. Persons suffering from chronic sinusitis may experience either short-term or lasting relief of sinus headaches as well as find it easier to breath after a sauna session.

“Give me the power to create a fever, and I shall cure any disease.”
Hippocrates, “The Father of Modern Medicine” (2,000 years ago)

Hyperthermia, from the Greek words "hyper", meaning high, and "thermos", meaning temperature, can simply be defined as the elevation of the body temperature. In humans a fever is a physiological thermic resource. Hyperthermia represents a natural immune approach in combating disease since it involves inducing an exaggerated version of the body's own fever state.

Most illnesses are accompanied by a fever. During a fever, the body heats up to eliminate viruses and attack foreign agents. This is direct evidence of the profound healing effects that occur when body temperature rises. Fever acts as a defense mechanism against a number of processes such as infection. One of the most immediate physiological effects of the fever is the acceleration of metabolic processes in general. Fever increases oxygen uptake and renders white blood cells more aggressive against bacteria, fungi or viruses. False fever created by Far infrared Rays, within physiological limits, can have many beneficial effects and will not produce any harm to normal cells that are able to cope with the higher metabolic demand. Recent studies also show that colds and flu-like illnesses are reduced dramatically if treated in the early stages with FIR heat therapy. The Aesta Sauna Dome and Aesta Ion Mat raise the core body temperature and give the user the gift of enhancing one's own immune systems processes.

Aesta increases blood circulation

Improve your blood circulation throughout your body for improved fitness and healthier heart using an Aesta Sauna Dome or Aesta Ion Mat .Oxygen-rich blood is a key factor to regaining and maintaining your vital health. With healthier blood circulation, your body's temperature will feel more balanced throughout the day and will not be as affected by external factors because the immune system is activated and oxygen is richly flowing throughout your body.

Restore balance to your health and blood pressure rate as Aesta’s gentle and deep penetrating Far Infrared Radiant Heat actively works to normalize your blood pressure.

Heating the body this way stimulates blood flow like nothing else can; except vigorous exercise. Increased circulation translates into higher energy levels, greater bodily healing capabilities and better overall general health. As well, Far Infrared Heat Therapy increases blood circulation and oxygen supply to damaged tissues (aiding reduction of chronic joint and muscle pain or sport injuries), promotes relaxation and comfort, induces sleep and relieves stress

Aesta strengthens the cardiovascular system and normalizes blood pressure

German medical researchers concluded one session of Far Infrared Radiant Heat Therapy for over 1 hour can have significant reduction of blood pressure thanks to persistent peripheral vessels dilation. They also noted that blood viscosity was improved. After 1 hour of far infrared radiance, there is a significant decrease of blood pressure, cardiac ejection resistance, total peripheral resistance and significant increase of heart rate, stroke volume, cardiac output and ejection fraction. In simple terms; it places demands upon the cardiovascular system, making the heart pump harder and producing a drop in diastolic blood pressure.

Infrared Heat and Coronary Effect Finnish researchers, reporting on the regular use of saunas state "there is abundant evidence to suggest that blood vessels of regular sauna-users remain elastic and pliable longer due to the regular dilation and contraction" of blood vessels induced by sauna use.

A group of hypertensive patients was studied using far infrared saunas, to carefully evaluate the effects on the circulatory system. With each infrared session, there was a decrease of blood pressure, cardiac ejection resistance, and total peripheral resistance in every subject. There was also a significant increase of heart rates, stroke volumes, cardiac outputs and ejection fractions. The researchers cite these last three effects as evidence that stimulation of the heart during infrared induced hypothermia is well-compensated, while the prior list of effects show clear detail of the microcirculatory changes leading to the desired result of lowering blood pressure.

Aesta improves all organ functions

All of the health benefits of Far Infrared rays such as improved blood circulation, increased oxygen supply, toxin and heavy metal reduction, weight control, skin cleansing and rejuvenation help to improve organ functions. This is a good measurement of your overall health. It’s a simple yardstick; if all your organs are functioning at an improved level you are obviously a healthier person.

Aesta helps in weight control (loss or gain)

Far Infrared Radiant Heat Therapy is not a complete answer to overnight weight loss, but it can help play a major roll in maintaining a healthy weight or shedding a few pounds, especially when combined with a regular exercise routine, healthy eating and the consumption of clean restructured water.

People who have unsuccessfully tried many diets often find success with the Aesta Sauna Dome and the Aesta Ion Mat because they are able to eliminate chemicals stored in your cells. This makes weight control much easier. As well, recent research shows that Infrared Radiation stimulates the thyroid gland to increase its hormone levels, translating into increased metabolism and weight loss.

The Aesta Sauna Dome and the Aesta Ion Mat assists in weight control in three significant ways:

Aesta increases metabolism between blood and tissue

The Aesta Sauna Dome and Aesta Ion Mat’s Far Infrared Radiant Heat Energy increases the delivery of oxygen and nutrients in the blood cells to the body's soft tissue areas. This gentle healing heat penetrates deep into your body and stimulates the cells to increased activity. Increased metabolism between the blood and tissue means greater cellular energy production which in turn facilitates healing and general well-being.

Aesta helps to remove cholesterol

When the normally smooth, firm lining of the arteries becomes thickened and roughened by deposits of fat, fibrin, calcium and cellular debris, it lessens the arteries ability to expand and contract, and slows the blood movement through narrowed channels. These conditions make it easier for blood clots to form, blocking the arteries and stopping blood flow completely. FIR is able to neutralize blood toxicity and smooth the walls of arteries, capillaries and veins.

Aesta promotes cellular regeneration and speeds healing to cuts and bruises
The Aesta Sauna Dome and Aesta Ion Mats can help heal cuts, bruises, scars and burns. Acne, psoriasis and eczema conditions will also improve. Increased blood circulation and deep cleansing of impurities improves skin tone and elasticity. This accelerates the healing process and reduces scaring. FIR heat speeds healing by expanding blood vessels, increasing circulation and improving lymph flow. Better circulation allows more oxygen to reach injured areas of the body and helps reduce pain and speed up the therapeutic process.

In addition, by stimulating vasodilatation of peripheral blood vessels and enhancing the body's delivery of oxygen to joints and extremities, it is believed to speed the healing of sprains and strains, thereby relieving pain and reducing the time it takes the body to recover from an injury.

Aesta helps to improve joint movements

Far Infrared Radiant Heat Therapy loosens muscles and relaxes the whole body. Besides releasing tight muscles that restrict joint movement, this gentle, penetrating heat works directly on your joints to improve circulation, stimulate production of natural lubrication and relieve pain from conditions such as osteoarthritis.

In the area of an injury, heat stimulates flow of peripheral blood vessels, bringing oxygen to joints and extremities, relaxation of stiff muscles, speeding the healing of sprains and strains. The increased blood flow helps aching and injured muscles recover faster because the stronger blood flow, the quicker metabolic and toxic waste production purged from the body, through the skin during perspiration

Improves micro circulation

Aesta Sauna Dome and Aesta Ion Mats Far Infrared Radiant Heat improves micro circulation. At the molecular level, the Far Infrared Radiant Heat exerts strong rotational and vibrational forces in the cells of these tissues. The emitted energy penetrates up to 3 inches and stimulates micro-circulation; delivering higher levels of oxygen and nutrients to the injured cells, while eliminating toxins and cellular waste. Far infrared rays are biologically beneficial and essential to good cellular health.

Aesta increases the delivery of oxygen and nutrients in the blood cell to the body’s soft tissue areas

The Aesta Sauna Dome and Aesta Ion Mat’s Far Infrared Radiant Heat Energy increases the delivery of oxygen and nutrients in the blood cells to the body's soft tissue areas. This gentle healing heat penetrates deep into your body and stimulates the cells to increased activity. Increased metabolism between the blood and tissue means greater cellular energy production which in turn facilitates healing and general wellbeing. As well, the healing rays stimulate the hypothalamus, which controls the production of neuro-chemicals controlling blood pressure; further enhancing the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to the body's soft tissue areas.

Stimulates the hypothalamus, which controls the production of neuro-chemicals

Most automatic bodily functions such as breathing, digestion, blood pressure and body temperature are governed by the endocrine system. It also influences our immune system, moods, sexual function and even how we age. Studies have shown that some wavelengths of light stimulate certain enzymes within this system to be 500% more effective.

Far Infrared Radiant Heat Therapy fires up the hypothalamus, which controls the production of neuro-chemicals involved in such biological processes as sleep, mood, pain sensations, and blood pressure; enhancing the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to the body's soft tissue areas and the removing accumulated toxins by improving lymph circulation. Recent research also shows that FIR also stimulates the thyroid gland to increase it s hormone levels, translating into increased metabolism and weight loss.

Improves health in general

Far-Infrared Heat Therapy improves most physical conditions because its effects are nearly universally positive. Studies have shown over 100 benefits such as improved blood circulation, restored youthfulness, toxin and heavy metal reduction, weight control, cellulite reduction, skin cleansing and rejuvenation, allergy reduction and rash reduction.

Both Far-Infrared Heat Therapy and steam rooms can be used to relax and unwind. However, FIR products have an advantage over steam rooms by helping to rid the body of more toxic metals picked up from the environment. Of course, the kidneys take out many of these toxins but a daily sweat can help reduce the body’s accumulation of lead, mercury and nickel in addition to cadmium, sodium, sulfuric acid and cholesterol.

Skin elimination is the most efficient way to remove toxic chemicals and metals. It is our largest organ and as such it can remove toxins faster than with any other method. Far Infrared therapy with Aesta is a daily habit that pays many dividends. Steam baths, sweat lodges, vigorous exercise and hot tubs are more extreme and less effective and the intense heat is difficult for many to tolerate, especially when ill.
