Infrared heat may help reduce soreness on nerve endings and muscle spasms as muscle joints and fibers are heated.  Infrared heat can also increase blood circulation that carries off metabolic waste products and delivers oxygen-rich blood to oxygen-depleted muscle, so they recover faster.

Muscles relax best when tissues are warm, for greater flexibility and range of motion. Near and Far Infrared heat may relieve muscle tension.  The deep heat of infrared saunas helps peripheral blood vessels dilate, bringing relief and healing to muscle and soft tissue injuries.
