FAR Infrared Sauna Review

Review of an infrared sauna I recently purchased from RedSaunas.co.uk www.redsaunas.co.uk It has carbon heaters as opposed to ceramic ones. The carbon heaters are meant to last alot longer and deliver a more even heat. The model I chose was the ‘Queen 3-4 person corner sauna’ which has a maximum temperature of 60 degrees Centigrade. That doesn’t sound like a very high temperature but due to the way the infrared waves penetrate deeper into your skin, it actually feels much hotter (although the air doesn’t get hot) and you sweat much more than in a traditional sauna. Its a strange effect when you’ve been used to the intense air temperature of a traditional sauna but means that this type of sauna is more suitable for people who can’t handle a traditional very hot sauna, elderly and children. (according to the research) The sauna is housed in a log cabin I got for a very reasonable sum from a guy who I installed a pond for a few months ago. As the cabin roof and decked area isn’t finished yet, I’ll do a video of the cabin at a later date – it gets a cracking view over my pond and surrounding area. Apologies if I sound about as coherent as Sylvester Stallone – I’d already been in a while before I filmed most of the video and was very relaxed. And yeah, I do look fat at the start of the video, I know.

    In a traditional sauna you definitely feel more charged with heat but sweat much more in an infared one. Its a strange one – the experience is totally different. I do like regular saunas too as I use my time in there as a test of endurance, then sit in a chilled pool for about 10 minutes until I’ve just about got hypothermia, then back in the sauna, repeat as necessary. Even on holidays in Turkey I was in the sauna most days – beating the Russians……………Oh yeah.

    Yeah, I’ve gone past the point of being embarrased when I see myself in videos and achieved a sort of careless serenity.
    Thanks for watching.

    When people ask me if I’m worried about loosing my hair I just tell them I’ve got more than most people – but the distribution is irregular.

    My hairyness started out as a simple crab ladder years ago.
    I think that as the hair from my head fell out, it took root wherever it landed.

    Thanks for appreciating it. Its hardly a proffessional review but I think sometimes people trust an independant honest review over a made up flashy one.

    You don’t have to show your cock in the video to explain the Infrared Sauna

    Even if it was in HD on a 50″ plasma, you’d need good eyesight, man.
