Others claim that their heaters emit 9 to 14 microns. Are they better than Health Mate?
No, no scientific research has proven that far infrared ray effects human body differently depending on a wavelength. If the wavelength is higher than 5.6 microns, it is considered far infrared, it is of benefit to you and there’s little difference between 6 or 15 microns. That’s what science has discovered so far. Don’t be misleading by aggressive and many times fraudulent marketing by emerging sauna companies. Some sellers claim that their infrared heaters emit 9 to 14 microns with false or no scientific evidence. In order to emit 9 microns, the heater surface temperature should be 100 ยบ F or less. That’s slightly higher than our skin temperature! It is obvious that you can’t sweat with those heaters. Either their claim about wavelenghts is fraudulent or you can’t sweat enough in their saunas. At Health mate, we don’t make such fraudulent claims just to sell the units. That’s one of the reasons why Health Mate has been trusted and loved by customers for nearly 30years.
