Is an Infrared Sauna Actually Safe to Use?

With so many excellent health benefits, energy-efficient qualities, and custom in-home sizes, an infrared sauna may sound nearly too good to be true. But, with its electromagnetic radiation, is an infrared sauna actually safe to use? Absolutely, yes! You can rest assured that high-quality infrared saunas like Finnleo® are extremely safe and have to pass rigorous testing to be deemed safe for home use. Understanding infrared sauna technology is important to eliminate unnecessary fear, so let’s explain a little about it. 

How Does an Infrared Sauna Work?

A traditional sauna works by heating the room you’re in which then heats your body, causing you to sweat and experience the benefits of a sauna. An infrared sauna, however, is a very different experience. With an infrared sauna, the heating panels send out infrared waves that heat your body directly. Infrared waves are capable of penetrating deeper into your muscles for a more powerful effect. Those that prefer an infrared sauna over a traditional sauna enjoy the comfort of not sweating, the deeper penetration of the heat, and the fact that no warm-up time is needed. 

How Do I Know an Infrared Sauna is Safe?

An infrared sauna uses light waves to heat users, producing some electromagnetic radiation and electrical field emissions (EMR/EF). Keep in mind that you encounter EMR and EF all day. Computers, cell phones, electrical lines, x-rays, radios, and TV, among many other household items, all fall on the electromagnetic spectrum. 

Finnleo makes user safety its top priority and has created the lowest EMR and EF infrared bathing system available using proprietary and patented technology. In fact, Finnleo far surpasses the rigorous Swedish standards for electromagnetic safety, making Finnleo the obvious choice for in-home sauna use. The patented Pure Infra® Technology is found only in Finnleo saunas and ensures the safest possible setting and infrared use. As a result, Finnleo’s Pure Infra Saunas use less EMR and EF than the ambient amounts found in your home. This makes Finnleo the safest infrared saunas on the market
