The FIT Bodywrap works to detoxify the body, soothe aches and pains, speed muscle recovery, and boost metabolism. How? It’s simple – direct infrared heat! The FIT Bodywrap delivers the safest, most effective, and highest quality far infrared heat directly to the body, leading to a whole host of health benefits.
Types of Infrared Heat
There are three types, or wavelengths, of infrared heat. Our sun’s output is made up of a mixture of them, but the human body emits far infrared specifically.
- Near infrared penetrates skin deep (the epidermis) and can help with skin conditions. This is the infrared heat you feel in a sauna.
- Mid infrared penetrates a bit deeper to improve circulation.
- Far infrared warms the body directly, not the air around it. It penetrates deeply into the body (up to 1.5”, right into the dermis) allowing it to provide the most benefits.
The FIT Bodywrap produces far infrared heat, so it strictly penetrates the body, providing wellness benefits such as pain relief, weight loss, cellulite reduction, skin rejuvenation, relaxation, and so much more.
THE FIT BODYWRAP APPLIES INFRARED DIRECTLY TO YOUR BODY, SO NO HEAT IS LOST, AND THE HEAT PENETRATES DEEPER INTO THE BODY.
Infrared saunas and sauna pods use the full spectrum of infrared, including near, mid, and far, to be effective. Far infrared heat is produced by a heating element which heats the ambient air, while mid infrared delivers that heat to the body. Near infrared helps that heat penetrate the skin.
A traditional sauna session usually tops out at about 20-30 minutes because the body cannot handle breathing in the hot air for much longer than that. FIT Bodywrap sessions are up to 60 minutes long and allow for the participant to relax and breathe room temperature air. Many of the benefits are often achieved within the last half hour of the session because it takes the body a bit of time to raise its temperature and begin sweating. Thus, infrared body wraps are significantly more effective.
The main difference between a sauna and a body wrap is that traditional saunas apply indirect infrared heat – that is, they heat the air around the body, and this heat doesn’t penetrate very deeply. The FIT Bodywrap applies infrared directly to your body, so no heat is lost, and the heat penetrates deeper into the body.
