Lately, there has been a rising concern about people’s level of exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMF), and its effects on health. In truth, there have been studies that sought to find a definitive link between the two, but so far, most of them remain inconclusive. Of course, it’s quite normal for people to become apprehensive after all the EMF buzz. After all, the average fellow fears what he doesn’t understand.
After a thorough understanding of what it really entails, however, you could come to discover that your fears may well be unfounded. Scientists believe that electromagnetic radiation has been in existence since the universe began, its most familiar form being light. Electro-magnetic fields form part of the spectrum of this radiation, which extends through infrared radiation and radiofrequencies, even to X-rays.
Due to the mention of infrared radiation in the spectrum, people tend to worry about the possible consequences of using devices like far infrared saunas. The carbon fiber heaters in these types of saunas, though, limit the amount of EMF emitted to an insignificant amount. In fact, it is possible to receive more EMF from watching the TV regularly or using the microwave frequently than from using your sauna every day.
Infrared waves are typically on the lower end of the range, where the wavelengths are quite longer and not as intense as those emitted in X-rays or ultraviolet exposures, which are on the upper end of the spectrum.
Even with the harmless emission, a far infrared sauna usually shields EMF by covering electricity flow with metals, like steel conduits within its confines. Since the amount of EMF they emit is considered insignificant, the covering may not be all that necessary.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), extensive studies have been conducted into the possible effects of EMF exposure on health. All research conducted so far indicate that exposures below the recommended limits listed in the ICNIRP (1998) EMF guidelines, covering the full range from 0-300 GHz, do not lead to any known adverse health effect.
Technological advancements have made it possible for infrared saunas to emit zero EMF. So if you want to continue enjoying the immense benefits of sauna usage, but are still apprehensive about EMF, you could consider making a switch. Nevertheless, keep in mind that at any given time, you are always exposed to varying levels of EMF and they are likely to increase as reliance on technology continues to rise.
If you’re planning to get an infrared sauna, leading manufacturers, like JNH Lifestyles, offer a wide array of Zero EMF and infrared saunas guaranteed to suit your needs, all with a comprehensive warranty.
