Shape-Up now has the
popular FAR INFRARED SAUNAS with heat that is "far"
different from conventional saunas which rely on heat
conduction to raise your body temperature. Far Infrared
Saunas create a radiant heat in the form of far infrared
energy which is tuned to our own body allowing us to
absorb over 85% of this radiant heat leaving less than
15% to heat the air. This allows therapeutic effects at
much lower temperatures. Experience the fundamental
difference that we have discovered to truly Shape-Up
your life.
Many members like to combine the Far Infrared Sauna with
our Steam rooms for the wet heat that is soothing to the
lungs and sinuses with refreshing natural aromatic oils
of cedar, peppermint and eucalyptus for a wonderful
aromatherapy experience. The saunas and steam rooms are
part of Shape-Up memberships at no additional cost.
"Steam
baths are wonderfully therapeutic with a high moisture content.
Sweating has proven its effectiveness in flushing out toxins and
disease and maintaining optimal physical as well as mental health.
The skin is the largest organ in the body and through the pores it
plays a major role in the detoxifying process alongside the lungs,
kidneys, bowels, liver and the lymphatic and immune systems. The
skin produces cool sweat to regulate the body's elevated
temperature. It also has the ability to transform toxins from
lipid-soluble or oil-based, into -easier to eliminate- water-soluble
forms. Sweat carries toxins out of the body and flushes them through
the pores. Sweating is the body's safe and natural way to heal.
Scientists and doctors are finally acknowledging what our ancestors
instinctively knew, that regular sweating restores good health
through the elimination of toxins." |
