Types of baths

To date, there are various types of baths and saunas. First appeared in the baths of ancient Rome. The so-called terms consisted of several rooms, each of which had its own temperature. Different temperature background supported by ceramic pipes with hot water, installed under the floor and walls. Roughly the same is arranged a Turkish bath - Hamam. Family Japanese bath ofuro acquired its present appearance centuries ago. Ofuro - a wooden barrel made from high quality wood. The water in her heated installed inside the oven in stainless steel. Traditional Russian steam bath and sauna are arranged about the same, and heated wood or electric oven. The air in these baths can be heated to 100 degrees. The only difference is that Finns prefer dry steam, which is easier to carry than wet. Infrared saunas are a little like its predecessors. They first appeared in the apartments of the Japanese, who decided to "tame" infrared heat. In Russia, such booths have appeared recently, about three years ago. From familiar and sauna baths are distinguished by the fact that a certain temperature is maintained in them not familiar to us oven, and special ceramic elements which emit infrared waves. These cabins are widely used in sports centers, beauty salons, health and spa facilities, and finally "arrived" in the apartment. Instructions for use infrared sauna - a small wooden cabin, it can simultaneously be a few people. The walls of the cabin made of pine, birch or lime. Inside there are wooden shelves or benches (their configuration depends on the size of the cabin and the customer's wishes), and a small lamp. Some manufacturers offer infrared cabins equipped with modern sound systems or special lighting, which has a therapeutic effect. Infrared heaters (emitters) are made of special ceramic material. They tend to lower power consumption, 3-4 times less than the cost of the sauna, equipped with inner-city apartments. Specifications allow you to connect an infrared cabin to the normal outlet, but, of course, better and safer place to hold a special cable. As claimed by manufacturers of infrared saunas, a cab can be installed in any room. To do this we need only determine the model or make a sauna on an individual project. If only there was a place - if udastcya ocvobodit 1 square. m square, verily etogo uzhe doctatochno to install nebolshoy cab. True, it is desirable that the free area was near the bathroom: after a session is recommended to take a shower. Before visiting the infrared sauna needs to be thoroughly aired. It is important to know that the willingness of the cab to work is determined by the degree of heating radiators, not the air temperature inside it. Therefore, after the sauna, you should wait 10-15 minutes to radiators warmed up enough. Temperature in the cabin reaches 40 - 70 degrees, with most of the released energy heats up the body and tolko 20% - vozdux. By the way, experts advise during a session of sauna open up a bit to ensure a flow of fresh air and reduce the temperature. Naturally, the intensity of infrared radiation does not decrease. Before a session is a snack and drink sufficient amount of mineral water, otherwise, due to increased sweating may occur excessive dehydration. Physics for the lyrics of Invisible infrared radiation for humans - it is called the heat - is included in the optical range of the electromagnetic spectrum. This means that all bodies are heated to a certain temperature, emit infrared energy. Its scope is very wide: in industry, for example, infrared emitters are used for drying of painted surfaces, and in everyday life - in the remote control. Infrared radiation enters the solar spectrum, and proved that it is most useful for human health. Viktor A. Ovsyannikov, Ph.D., lead researcher of the Academy of Medical and Technical Sciences of Russia, a quarter century studying the effects of infrared rays on the human body. "Infrared radiation is harmless, because the energy of the photons can not cause harm to a biological organism with normal intensity. Normal intensity is one that does not cause thermal damage, and especially the effect of ionization, ie burning," - said the scientist. He also said that in 1960 Kazakhstan had an experiment - the processed seeds of red and infrared radiation, and their germination rate almost doubled. "Living cells are necessary not only nutrients but also the energy to rebuild their lives and fight against various diseases," - said Viktor Ovsyannikov. Already infrared lasers treat hepatitis B and C. The infrared radiation is useful for a human to normal doses, but how to define them? Radiation intensity and time of the session are selected individually. Infrared sauna can be used for medicinal purposes, but there are some contraindications. For example, if a person is sick the flu from a similar procedure should be abandoned. Expectant mothers should also be careful. However, before a session does not hinder anybody to consult with your doctor. Therapeutic possibilities Comfortable temperature in the cabin, as well as infrared radiation, which penetrates the body, stimulate the activity of sweat. Pores open, cleaned, even the ones that have long been clogged with makeup. Infrared radiation promotes excretion of toxins, in addition, naturally decrease excess body fat, reduces weight. Since the outer layer of skin removes dead cells, the skin becomes elastic and smooth, fade acne and dandruff. The same effect can be achieved in an ordinary sauna, but because of the high temperature during the session is limited. In the infrared cabins on the "cool" and, therefore, be in them can be much longer, without exposing the skin of heat stress. Scientists have shown that regular holding of these procedures helps to kidney diseases, digestive disorders and disorders of the nervous system. Infrared radiation restores the immune system and stimulates cell renewal with burns and after surgery. Heat infrared cabins, penetrating deep into the muscles, warms them, and also helps recover from heavy loads. But turning a sauna in the medical office, even if it is at your personal disposal, still not worth it.
