Metabolic function increases while you're receiving far infrared therapy and this causes an increase of caloric uptake and the result is you lose weight. You don't lose just water, you're not dehydrating yourself you're actually losing body fat.
Dr. Daryl Bourke, Kelowna B.C.

I had heard of this in the infrared saunas, but was very pleasantly surprised to see it was actually true. I had personally noticed fat loss and increased energy from the sauna as well as sleeping better. I decided to run functional medicine testing to confirm this and found my basal metabolic rate had actually increased. Not only was I burning more calories, but my hydration levels had also improved.

We have been thoroughly impressed with our purchase from Far North Saunas. From the quality of the unit, ease of set up to the well thought out standard features including the full spectrum LED lighting and frameless glass door we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. It was very important to us that Far North Saunas had actually done the VOC testing ( testing for toxins ) on each unit as well and gone to the lengths to have their emitters tested by a laboratory to confirm the output. We found no other company that went to those extremes.
We happily recommend Far North Saunas to all of our patients.

Sincerely,

I find that those patients seeking weight loss really benefit from the infrared sauna therapy. Not only are they increasing the core temperature and their metabolism their also losing inches much more rapidly than other patients are.

People that are using infrared therapy as part of their weight loss plan are very pleased with the results they been getting. What we see is that in a half hour session in an infrared sauna you are burning anywhere from 300 to 400 calories. It's not just water weight that you're losing, you're actually helping to reset your metabolism and increase your heart rate.
