Exposure to dry heat speeds metabolism efficiently, allowing your body to use calories consumed for energy instead of storing them as fat. Especially during fall and winter, joints become stiff and crack and pop and muscles tighten and ache. Through exposure to infrared heat, joints become more supple, muscles are relieved and body flexibility increases. The sweat induced by dry heat exposure opens pores to release toxins and accept treatments. And, lastly, dry heat induces an undeniable relaxation with an enveloping, hugging heat: a perfect setting for meditation and release of the day’s worries.
