What is the far infrared ray?

Solar energy from the sun covers a broad energy band including infrared, visible light, ultra-violet, x-ray and gamma rays. Only a small amount of these solar rays are visible as colours. The greatest amount of the sun's energy output is in the infrared segment of the spectrum. This band of light is not visible but can be felt as heat.

The infrared segment of the electromagnetic spectrum is divided into three segments by wave frequencies and wavelengths. Wavelengths are measured in microns (mm), which are one millionth of meters: near infrared: 0.76-1.5mm; Middle: 1.5-5.6mm; Far: 5.6-1000mm... A narrow spectrum between 4-14 microns has been shown to have particularly beneficial effects on the human body. (Far Infrared by Valerie H. Free, USA) Near and middle infrared rays are a kind of heat

Is the far infrared ray safe?

Yes, hospitals use the infrared incubators for newborn babies and sports clinics use infrared lamps to aid the recovery of injuries.
Far infrared rays are the healing and safe rays of the sun's spectrum, responsible for photosynthesis and it is not the same as UV rays or microwaves. Without this wavelength, plants would be unable to make energy, and consequently, there would be no life on earth.
What are the benefits derived from the far infrared ray? (Far infrared box verses a simply a heat box)?
Among the total spectrum of solar rays coming from the sun, the far infrared ray is the safest and the most beneficial. For example the visible light spectrum, with very short wave lengths, is reflected away from the body. When near infrared wave's heat organic substance the surface gets hotter than the interior and the exterior gets heated by conduction from the surface. By contrast, far-infrared penetrates deeply with a very uniform warming effect
That is why if the heaters do not generate far infrared ray, they will not give you the same effect as our far infrared heaters
What is the difference between the far infrared sauna and steam rooms?
Infrared Saunas offer more health benefits.
Both saunas and steam rooms can be used to relax and unwind. However dry saunas 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, nickel in addition to cadmium, sodium, sulfuric acid and cholesterol.
The sauna is also more beneficial than the steam room if weight loss is desired because of the energy expenditure. Compared to the steam room, the sauna places a greater demand on the body in the terms of using up calories, thus assists in fat loss. (Susan Jones, Ph.D in Lets live magazine, June 1994, USA) The heart needs to work harder to send more blood to the capillaries under the skin. It helps to improve the heart function. The energy required for that process is derived from the conversion of fat and carbohydrates to calories.
It is running at lower temperature. It's more comfortable. With CD/Radio, you can relax

Far infrared sauna is therapeutically different from the wet air of the steam room sauna. It is lower temperature with dry heat which is far more comfortable. The majority of people prefer the more tolerable heat.

Since this sauna employs the very low end of the infrared spectrum, it causes the user to sweat at temperatures just under 65 degrees centigrade, a temperature that is much safer for the aged and for people with weak hear
It generate 2-3 more sweat in FIR sauna and eliminating much more toxins out you body.

What are the health benefits of a far infrared sauna
The Health Benefits are:

§  Deep cleanse and detoxification

§  Reduce muscular stress, tension and physical fatigue

§  Give comfort and relaxation of aching body

§  Improve whole body conditioning and wellbeing

§  Burns calories

§  improve skin tone

Why does Health Mate Sauna offer the best heaters?
To provide a new standard of effective heat for the body, Health Mate Saunas use infrared energy, also called radiant heat. This heat is produced by infrared rays, a form of energy that is just below visible light on the spectrum.
(Near or middle infrared, which below 5.6 microns is not effective on the human body. So it is important that an infrared heater emits far infrared ray.) The radiant heat penetrates to a depth of 35-40mm, soothing and relieving muscles and tissues. At lower, more comfortable temperatures, infrared heat can generate two to three times the sweat produced in conventional saunas. Radiant heat works on the body directly from within. Normal sauna heaters simply don’t offer the same results.
The heaters designed are specifically for the human body. It enjoys good reputation of high efficiency, accuracy and reliability of its heater Our heaters are specially designed to evenly distribute far infrared rays and to have almost infinite lifetime. The large reflecting panels placed behind the heaters are designed to reflect the specific far infrared wavelengths emitted from our heaters for maximum results. The result is that you can benefit from the far infrared that modern science can offer while enjoying a sauna session.

Why Western Red Cedar is the best timber for sauna use?

Cedar wood and its oil have been used for 3000~4000 years  to prevent or cure illnesses throughout the regions. The early Europeans used cedar wood oil to help heal the sick and to prevent outbreaks of disease. Europeans used cedar wood oil to cure indigestion, flatulence, leprosy, bubonic plague, smallpox and fever. In the 17th century, English herbalist Nicholas Culpeper had observed that cedar wood was a remedy for heart failure, coughs, and shortness of breath, tuberculosis and menstruation.
Western Red Cedar produces natural oil and extractives that act as preservatives to protect the wood from insect attacks and decay-causing fungi. Cedar wood is renowned for its resistance to bacteria and fungi, along with its ability to deter most insects, moths, and pests. Cedar wood’s structure creates interior air space that gives it a higher insulation value than most woods. It also boasts very low shrinkage value, making it suitable for a variety of uses in high-moisture areas such as saunas. The Cedar timber is renowned for not warping or twisting, and is also an excellent heat insulator.

Why Health Mate Sauna can remove more toxins from your body at lower temperature?

Since humans are bio-accumulators, numerous toxins that cannot be removed immediately after entry and are stored in our body. For example, when toxic gases such as sulphur dioxide, carbon dioxide or toxic substances such as lead, mercury or chlorine meet large water molecules, they encapsulated by the clusters of water. Where these toxins are accumulated, blood circulation is blocked and cellular energy is impaired.
However, when a FIR wave is applied to these large water molecules, the water begins to vibrate. This vibration reduces the ion bonds of the atoms which are holding together the molecules of water. As the breakdown of the water molecules occurs, encapsulated gases and other toxic materials are released.
Scientists in Japan report that in the FIR wave treatment of clogged capillary vessels, a similar process occurs: heat expands the capillaries and then initiates the start of a process to dissolve hidden toxins

Understand, not all the saunas offer the same effect
