Advantages and benefits of the Ganbanyoku Sauna

Sauna Japońska Ganbanyoku

The experience of the rock sauna is extremely pleasant and fascinating. There is no excessive sweating, no unpleasant smell so characteristic of traditional saunas and, above all, no feeling of heat making breathing difficult. Japanese doctors refer to the type of odourless sweat secreted during the treatment as a "natural balm", which has the character of a cosmetic sebum with strong antibacterial properties. Ganbanyoku JapanSpa® perfectly cleanses toxins and heavy metals, rejuvenating the body. It eliminates rheumatic and muscular pains, stress and tension. Combats excess weight and cellulite, inhales natural negative ions. The JapanSpa® rock sauna treatment regenerates the epidermis, smooths wrinkles and heals wounds. The skin regains tone, colour, firmness and elasticity, and the same happens to the hair which is nourished. Ganbanyoku is the safest type of sauna for both children and the elderly. Because the temperature is much lower than in traditional saunas (e.g. Finnish) and the strain on the body is much less.

Regeneration: back pain, muscular pains, musculoskeletal disorders, lumbago, fatigue

The use of Ganbanyoku is especially recommended for people who frequently engage in sport and exercise. This is because its greatest advantage is its power of regeneration. Thanks to the heat flowing through the body - the circulation is stimulated and tense tissues relax. As muscles, thanks to far infrared radiation, become less tense, pain after exertion is also less noticeable, nerve endings become more resilient. Furthermore, when using the Ganbanyoku sauna, the tissues become better oxygenated, resulting in faster healing of wounds and scars.

Strengthening the immune system: removal of bacteria, viruses, toxins, inhalation

In addition to FIR, heated black volcanic silica also emits negative ions, which are natural antioxidants. Thanks to them, we rid the body of toxins. Negative ions are known as 'vitamins from the air', which also strengthen the immune system. Thanks to Ganbanyoku, the production of leukocytes is stimulated, bravely fighting bacteria, viruses and parasites in the body. Leukocytes also reduce the number of cancer cells. The combined action of far-infrared radiation and negative ions can even reduce pollen allergy symptoms.

Anti Ageing: rejuvenating treatment, deep hydration, antibacterial, antifungal action

Being in a Finnish or steam sauna is associated with strenuous breathing of hot air and a lot of sweat. In the case of the Ganbanyoku positions it is different; we breathe comfortably in room-temperature air and do not sweat excessively, the so-called pearly sweat appears, which is odourless and has antibacterial properties. Moreover, infrared rays emitted by volcanic magma penetrate the body to a depth of about 4-5 mm, so that the body is cleansed at a cellular level, heavy metals are released from the body with sweat. Sweating also gets rid of dead skin cells and nourishes the skin, which becomes softer, smoother and firmer. Ganbanyoku is therefore recommended for those wishing to reduce cellulite. It is not necessary to take a shower after using the "rock bath". In fact, it is advisable for the treatment to be more effective, but it is necessary to wipe yourself with a towel.

Silhouette modelling: weight reduction, firming, anti-cellulite action

Among the many positive aspects of using Ganbanyoku beds is the fact that the treatment helps us burn unnecessary calories. This is not insignificant - during an hour-long session, we get rid of about 800-1200 kcal. A similar effect can be achieved after running 10 km, in which case all you need to do is lie on a volcanic stone. Why does this happen? We sweat, the heart is busily pumping blood and, thanks to far-infrared radiation, fat is burned, the metabolic rate in the body increases. Thus, the excretion of metabolic products also occurs faster.

Increased vitality: antidepressant, strengthening, relaxing effect

During the treatment, negative ions are emitted from black volcanic silica. One of their properties is that they have the effect of improving not only the physical, but also the mental condition of the person using Ganbanyoku. The person becomes relaxed already during the treatment, and this state of mind is maintained for longer with regular treatments. Mental resistance is also strengthened and the mood improves. Symptoms of stress disappear: headache, nausea, constant feeling of fatigue. The Ganbanyoku volcano bed also helps people with sleep problems: its rhythm improves, normalises.
