Infrared Saunas
Infrared Heat and Coronary Effect
Infrared Heat and Coronary
Effect Finnish researchers, reporting the regular use of saunas state
"there is abundant evidence to suggest that blood vessels of regular
sauna-users remain elastic and pliable longer due to the regular dilation
and contraction" of blood vessels induced by sauna use.
A group of hypertensive
patients was studied using far infrared saunas, to carefully evaluate the
effects on the circulatory system. With each infrared session, there was a
decrease of blood pressure, cardiac ejection resistance, and total
peripheral resistance in every subject. There was also a significant
increase of heart rates, stroke volumes, cardiac outputs and ejection
fractions. The researchers cite these last three effects as evidence that
stimulation of the heart during infrared induced hypothermia is
well-compensated, while the prior list of effects show clear detail of the
microcirculatory changes leading to the desired result of lowering blood
pressure.
