This article will cover various topics about infrared therapy.

 

First, this article will educate you about what infrared therapy is and explore how it is used. It will also reveal the many benefits that infrared therapy can provide.

 

Next, this article will also inform you about the many ways to enjoy infrared therapy through Jacuzzi® wellness products, such as Jacuzzi® Infrared Saunas and Jacuzzi® Hot Tubs with Infrared and Red Light therapy. Overall, as you read on, you will learn about the amazing technology that infrared is and the incredible benefits it can provide.

 

What is infrared therapy?

Before delving into how infrared therapy is used and its benefits, it’s essential to identify what infrared therapy actually is. Infrared therapy uses infrared light, which is part of the electromagnetic spectrum that is invisible to the naked eye. This light-based treatment method involves exposing your body to the infrared waves, which penetrate your skin.

 

Infrared therapy is entirely unlike ultraviolet light, which can cause skin damage. Quite the opposite, infrared therapy light is absorbed deep beneath your skin to interact with tissues below and enhance cell regeneration.

 

According to the News Medical website, “Infrared light is delivered to the site of injury or inflammation at certain wavelengths, promoting cell repair. The key characteristic of infrared light is its ability to penetrate even the deep layers of the skin, providing better pain relief. Also, infrared light is safe, natural, non-invasive, and painless. Thus, it may be able to provide a broad range of health benefits.”

 

What are the benefits of infrared light therapy?

Infrared therapy has been touted for a variety of uses. People turn to infrared light therapy for a variety of ailments including:

 

  • Pain relief, including in the lower back, which is one of the most commonly reported areas of chronic pain
  • Tissue repair
  • Ease of muscle tension
  • Improved circulation
  • Treatment for sports injuries
  • Detoxification

 

Some people may even seek infrared therapy for its cardiovascular benefits. While there is research on the positive impact infrared therapy may have on your heart, it is very important that anyone with heart concerns, or any other health issues, seek the counsel of their general physician and cardiologist before using infrared therapy.

 

Furthermore, News Medical reports: “Infrared light therapy is applied in the treatment of various health conditions, including back pain, arthritis, bursitis, blunt trauma, muscle strain, carpal tunnel syndrome, neck pain, back pain, diabetic neuropathy, rheumatoid arthritis, temporomandibular joint pain (TMJ), tendonitis, wounds, sciatica, and surgical incisions.”

Where can I find infrared therapy treatment?

If you are interested in infrared light therapy treatment, you can find it in some of the Jacuzzi® brand’s most popular products, including Jacuzzi® Infrared Saunas, Jacuzzi® Hot Tubs, and Jacuzzi® Swim Spas. With these wellness products, you can enjoy the perks of infrared therapy right in the comfort of your home or backyard.

 

Infrared Saunas

According to an article on the Mayo Clinic website, “Many studies have looked at using infrared saunas in the treatment of long-lasting health problems and found some proof that saunas may help. Conditions studied include high blood pressure, heart failure, dementia and Alzheimer's disease, headache, type 2 diabetes, and arthritis. But larger and more-exact studies are needed to prove these results. Some of these studies were also performed with people using a regular sauna.”

 

The Jacuzzi name has been associated with innovative wellness for nearly seven decades. In that time, the Jacuzzi® brand has introduced wellness products with cutting-edge technology and advances to help customers like you enjoy the ultimate in relaxation and rejuvenation. After all, you deserve to feel your best every day.

 

Take, for example, Jacuzzi® Infrared Saunas. Available in one-, two-, and three-person models, Jacuzzi® Infrared Saunas create a place of sanctuary where you can rest, relax, and restore yourself, both physically and mentally.

In your Jacuzzi® Infrared Sauna, you can experience red light therapy. This high-intensity red light therapy allows you to indulge in the benefits of light therapy in every session.

Infrared Hot Tubs

Ever an innovator, the Jacuzzi® brand is currently the first and only brand to offer Infrared and Red light therapy in a hot tub setting. After the popularity and success of the brand’s Infrared Saunas, the Jacuzzi® team set out to discover how the benefits of Infrared light therapy could be achieved in a wet application and combined with hydrotherapy, such as in Jacuzzi® Hot Tubs.

 

After much research and development, the Jacuzzi® brand introduced its first hot tub collection to feature Infrared and Red Light therapy. Though it was first introduced in the Jacuzzi® J-LX® Collection, with two elegant and distinct models, the Infrared and Red Light therapy was soon introduced into other already existing luxury Jacuzzi® Hot Tubs such as the models in the J-400™ Collection

During a soak, you can experience the therapeutic benefits of hydrotherapy and the rejuvenating power of Infrared that works deep beneath your skin’s surface to help ease pain, improve your range of motion, and help you reach a state of bliss.
