Endermo Silhouette Montreal - Infratherapy

What is Infratherapy?
 

Body detox and therapeutic method, infratherapy is used to treat stress and chronic pain, as well as to eliminate cellulite, lose weight and repair damaged tissues.

Infratherapy uses infrared waves whose various benefic actions have been noted by many health experts. The strength of this technology is the invisible radiation that allows a resonance of muscle tissue, increases cellular function and blood circulation and improves the cardiovascular and immune systems.

The infrared wave penetration is up to a 4 cm depth. The body is stimulated directly by the heating radiation, without increasing the ambient temperature. The warming occurs in the heart of the muscle tissue and causes perspiration up to three times higher than in traditional saunas.

Used at a controlled temperature for a period of 40 minutes, infratherapy promotes perspiration

while increasing the heart rate and blood/lymphatic circulation. Consequently, the therapy encourages the toxin elimination and calories loss. The benefits are visible after the first treatment – it boosts the immune system and relax the most stressed people. It helps to restore health and sleep.

Infratherapy thus facilitates the weight control and contributes to your body slimming.

The thermal effect of infratherapy acts on the superficial fat, helping to stimulate the metabolism, reduce/eliminate the cellulite and fatty deposits.
