The simple discovery is: warmth
Infrared Cabin
The many positive effects attributed to infrared cabins can be explained solely by the body’s response to stimulation of temperature regulation. Warmth treatment is then the main effect. Infrared radiation is merely a vehicle that is highly suited to this purpose, since it works without contact and does not interfere with the skin’s temperature regulation mechanisms. The warmth generated as infrared radiation is absorbed by the surface of the skin. The body is given the impression in effect that it has itself produced too much warmth. After about 10 minutes the body core temperature increases by 0.1 °C and perspiration also sets in. This effect may in fact be described as thorough warming from the inside outward, a phenomenon which the body takes to very well, as studies have shown.
