Suffer from Depression or Mood Imbalances. In some of the latest studies on Far Infrared Heat therapy, scientists are beginning to document real benefits for these symptoms. People who live in locations where sunlight isn’t a year round commodity know how much the sun’s energy and lack thereof, affects ones moods and can lead to depression. Most of these symptoms have been attributed to lack of light, but today scientists are realizing that other aspects of the sun’s electromagnetic wavelength might be just as beneficial. Endorphins have long been attributed to mood and the body’s ability to fight depression. Athletes are very familiar with endorphins because they are what give them the workout “high” or uplifting mood swing one experiences when partaking in physical exercise. They also know the lows or depression that can follow when the body is deprived of exercise. When the body undergoes physical strain the brain releases endorphins in large quantities. These endorphins are carried throughout the body through the blood stream where they stay for hours providing an uplifted mood and happier outlook. Far Infrared heat therapy has been documented to boost the body’s endorphins just as if it were exercising. Furthermore, when one relaxes in far infrared heat, the body’s muscles and tissues release stored up tension and stress, elevating ones mood and leaving the body and mind uplifted and relaxed. When meditation is added to the sauna session the body can achieve many other documented health benefits, including mental wellbeing, fighting depression and maintaining a healthy physical and mental balance.
