Infrared dry heat sauna.

Traditional saunas, which are found in health clubs use a wet heat produced by pouring water over super heated rocks in an insulated, tightly enclosed room where the air heats to an excess of 200° F. This can be very uncomfortable and make it difficult to breathe. The body is warmed only on the skin and superficial muscles. High sauna humidity causes condensation to form on the skin limiting the body's natural ability to perspire and expel toxins.

Radiant heat is simply a form of energy that heats objects directly through a process called conversion, without having to heat the air in between. Radiant heat is also called Infrared Energy (IR). Our sun produces most of its energy output ion the infrared segment According to Dr. Tsu-Tsair Oliver Chi in his summation on the mechanisms of actions of infrared devices tuned to the human body, these rays are selectively absorbed by the tissues needing a boost in their output. The internal production of infrared energy that normally occurs within tissues is associated with a variety of responses. This phenomenon is called "resonant absorption."
