An infrared body wrap promotes the detoxification of accumulated toxins and metabolic waste through perspiration. It improves circulation, purifies and tones, improves skin elasticity, helps reduce cellulite (fatty, water-filled tissue), and promotes weight loss by promoting the breakdown of fat.

 

 

 

Cellulite
Cellulite is a gelatinous substance composed of fat, water, and waste trapped in subcutaneous pockets. Toxins accumulate in the body daily, and the body eliminates most of them naturally through perspiration, but this process is sometimes too slow. Infrared can help alleviate this problem because infrared thermotherapy stimulates the sweat glands, which cleanse and detoxify the skin. Infrared heat technology simply accelerates the body's natural process.

​

Weight Loss
An infrared body wrap emits far infrared rays. This heat therapy can promote weight loss by accelerating the metabolism of vital organs and endocrine glands, resulting in substantial calorie loss in a single body wrap session. Sweating is part of the body's complex thermoregulation process, which increases heart rate and output, as well as metabolism. This process requires a large amount of energy and reduces excess moisture, salt, and subcutaneous fat.

 

Since each person is different, fat loss with an infrared body wrap depends on their physiology. Therefore, the more excess weight they have, the faster and more dramatic the results will be. Some people won't lose much weight, but will see an improvement in their physical appearance by losing a few inches or changing their height. People in excellent physical shape, without excess weight or inches, will benefit from a significant improvement in their muscle tone. The more physically active a person is, the greater the benefits of an infrared body wrap. In a less active person, results may take longer to appear, as the body has to adjust to the infrared body wrap's heat therapy.

 

Of course, if a client using an infrared body wrap eats or drinks excessively, most of the treatment's results will be negative. Common sense tells us that, as with any body treatment aimed at improving one's physical appearance, it is essential to adapt one's nutritional needs. Ideally, an infrared body wrap will be particularly beneficial for those who follow a balanced exercise and diet program.

 

Active individuals can expect to reduce their figure by at least one size in 6 to 10 infrared body wrap sessions spaced 2 to 3 days apart.

 

People with a very sedentary lifestyle can still achieve excellent results, but this will require a longer period of time. Again, it is essential that they manage their exercise and dietary habits to achieve the desired results.

 

If a person is very physically active and does a lot of walking, jogging, weight training, or competitive sports, infrared heat therapy can be used every other day. For best results, it is best to use it just before a workout, as this allows for maximum calorie burn and optimized body definition. For relatively inactive individuals, an interval of at least three days between sessions is recommended. More regular sessions are unnecessary and may even hinder results. Once the desired body shape is achieved, it is possible to return to a maintenance program, which, for most people, should be 2 to 4 sessions per month.

 

Infrared heat therapy can be beneficial for almost everyone, regardless of their social background. However, sessions should only be undertaken after medical advice in the event of any of the following conditions: hyperthyroidism, myocardial infarction, cardiac weakness, constriction of the coronary vessels, high or low blood pressure, diabetes requiring insulin treatment, impaired kidney and associated organ function, fever, severe general infection, contact allergies, skin conditions, open wounds, recent shingles, pregnancy, prescription medications that increase sensitivity to physical stimulation (e.g., antibiotics), or severe varicose veins.

 

If in doubt, it is recommended to consult your doctor or a healthcare professional.
