HOW DOES FIT BODYWRAP WORK?

The FIT Bodywrap® produces far infrared heat (FIR), which is actually light that we can’t see, but can feel as heat. All warm blooded animals, including humans, generate this type of heat naturally to warm themselves, and more than half of the sun’s heat is infrared as well. Infrared heat warms us without warming the air around us (don’t you feel warmer when the sun comes out from behind the clouds?) and penetrates our bodies, rather than only heating the skin. The FIT Bodywrap generates infrared heat in the 5-15 micron wavelength, the same wavelength as the sun and our bodies produce, so it is safe and natural. During a FIT Bodywrap session, far infrared heat is generated very close to the body, and can penetrate 1-2 inches, heating areas where fats and toxins have been stored without generating uncomfortable heat on the surface of the skin. As many fats and toxins are soluble at temperatures of just over 100 degrees, these fats and toxins, including cholesterol, heavy metals and acids, can be dissolved and excreted through our sweat or kidneys. Heating the body can activate over 2 million sweat glands as the body seeks to cool itself. Extensive sweating can be very energy intensive, increasing metabolic rates, blood flow, tissue oxygenation and burning calories as you sweat and for some time afterward. In recent clinical research, approximately 15% of the sweat was composed of these undesirable fats and toxins in an infrared session, compared to 3-5% with normal exercise. The caloric consumption can be further enhanced with use of the FIT Booster Spray, which can enhance micro circulation, stimulates skin detoxification and reduces cellulite. The FIT Bodywrap can uniquely target this heat to specific areas, controlled to the specific degree, or immerse the entire body in evenly applied far infrared heat. Depending on the areas targeted, temperatures applied, and session duration and frequency, a variety of benefits can be derived.Weight Loss Most people will produce substantial amounts of sweat during a 50 minute FIT Bodywrap weight loss session. While there can be a short term loss of weight due to this sweating, most of this weight is immediately regained by re-hydration. But the fats and toxins in the sweat, as much as 15% of the sweat content, are not replaced. Clinical research has also established that sweating is an energy-intensive process. Extensive sweating can speed up the metabolism, resulting in dramatically increased caloric consumption. Simply put, sweating burns calories, often at very high rates. The metabolism can remain elevated for several hours after a session. So a FIT Bodywrap session can burn calories both during a session and for some time afterward. Repeated FIT Bodywrap sessions can result in weight loss through the combination of burning calories and removing fats and toxins.
