How it Works Komeda's deep heat produces an increased blood flow level and improves the circulation of oxygen throughout the body resembling that during an exercise. This stimulates the sweat glands to excrete two to three times more intense perspiration than conventional hot-air saunas. The more profuse the sweating, the more toxins and body waste are released. This detoxifying process purges the body of harmful heavy metals known to cause disease, thus, fortifying the immune system and improving the body's overall resistance to sickness. Far infrared energy effectively breaks down water molecules that accumulate and store unwanted toxins in our body that block blood circulation and impair cellular functions. Exposure to far infrared waves steadily circulates blood, removing blockages in the blood vessels and allowing for proper oxygen distribution to all parts of the body. This greatly reduces the risk for developing diseases. American researchers have shown that conventional sauna users sweat out 95% to 97% water while far infrared thermal system users excrete 80% to 85% water with the non-water portion being cholesterol, fat-soluble toxins, toxic heavy metals, sulfuric acid, sodium, ammonia and uric acid. These heavy metals are not discharged with the sweat from normal exercise. Unwanted toxins impair cellular functions. Far infrared energy effectively breaks down water molecules that store these body wastes. Blockages in the blood vessels are removed with exposure to far infrared waves and allows for proper oxygen distribution to all parts of the body.
