Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Yang Ziqi
The benefits of sauna therapy mainly include the following:
1. Promotes blood circulation: High temperatures stimulate blood vessels to dilate, accelerating blood flow and enhancing body metabolism.
2. Detoxifies and beautifies the skin: High-temperature sauna therapy promotes sweating, helping the body eliminate excess water and toxins, resulting in healthier skin and beautification effects.
3. Relieves fatigue: Sauna therapy helps relax both mind and body, easing muscles and alleviating physical fatigue.
4. Improves sleep: Sauna therapy assists the body in achieving deeper relaxation and enhances sleep quality.
5. Boosts immunity: During sauna therapy, tourmaline emits far-infrared rays that help remove residual harmful substances in the body, strengthening the immune system.
Sauna therapy is not suitable for everyone. Individuals with weak constitutions, those prone to dizziness, and patients with hypertension or cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases should proceed with caution.
