Steam Room Benefits

bhackett — Fri, 05 Mar 2010 15:31:10 +0000

The benefits of the steam room have been known for thousands of years and throughout history countless people have been using steam to enhance their sense of well being and improve their overall health. At the end of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st a huge influx in health conscious individuals in western the high classes has fuelled a vast growth in the health industry.

In the past, steam rooms have been top secret to health clubs and gyms, and many reckon steam rooms are only used at home by the wealthy; but top steam room specialists have made this wonderful past time available to everybody, not just the rich. With cold edge technology at affordable prices, countless people are now enjoying all the wonderful benefits of a steam room.

Brief Overview of Steam Room Benefits

In a steam room, wet heat opens the pores of your skin to aid body detoxification. A steam generator is used to make water vapour at high levels of humidity. The heat and humidity may bring health benefits ranging from aiding stress relief, to body cleansing, to soothing aching muscles or arthritis. This article will highlight the main benefits and the importance of using a steam room:

1st Steam Room Benefit: Eliminate toxins

The average body has approximately 2.6 million sweat glands. The body only has four ways to excrete toxins; urine, feces, respiration and perspiration. During a steam room session the body can sweat out up to 30% of its toxins that have built up. Studies have shown that environmental chemicals and poor diet cause 95% of cancers, which in today’s the high classes makes a steam room a very healthy and practical addendum to the home.

2nd Steam Room Benefit: Rejuvenate and Hydrate the Skin

Heat from the steam causes the heart to beat quicker and harder in an attempt to cool the body, causing blood to flood even the smallest capillaries. Increased blood flow to these tiny capillaries (just under the skins surface) causes the skin to glow and look healthy because the blood cells involve minerals, vitamins and oxygen: vital for a healthy body. In addendum, this increases the rate of body metabolism.

3rd Steam Room Benefit: Boost the immune system: Hyperthermia

Hyperthermia refers to an height of core body temperature to above 37.2°C for therapeutic purposes. During a steam room session the body temperature rises and when the body temperature rises it is called a fever (height of body temperature above the normal level). A virus can only usually survive within a narrow temperature range. Therefore an boost in body temperature may either stunt the virus’ multiplication or kill the virus. Fever triggers the body to release white blood cells, antibodies and a protein called interferon. The white blood cells, which are produced in the bone marrow, help to defend the body against infectious diseases and foreign materials. Antibodies are proteins which help protect against disease-causing micro-organisms whilst interferon is any group of proteins produced by cells in the body in response to an attack by a virus.

4th Steam Room Benefit: Enhance the Respiratory System

Steam inhalation supports mucosal secretions in the respiratory system and helps to open up the airways therefore reducing respiration resistance. This helps to relieve the discomfort of asthma and allergies. Steam room benefits also include relieving inflammation and congestion of high respiratory mucous membranes. It also helps to loosen secretions, stimulate the discharge of mucous from the throat and lungs (natural expectorant) and keeps mucous membranes from excessive drying.

5th Steam Room Benefit: Relieve Stress and Relax Muscles

Heat from the steam causes the muscles to relax, widening the blood vessels, allowing more oxygen to flow to them, releasing their tension. The heat also gives relief to sufferers of arthritis. The heat from the steam causes the whole body to relax; this experience melts away stress and soothes the mind & body.

Buyers Guide to Steam Showers

bhackett — Thu, 04 Mar 2010 15:13:42 +0000

Before buy a steam shower there are many things to take into consideration. There are literally thousands of steam shower manufacturers but only a few are worth buying. They key to a excellent steam shower is the quality of the materials that it is constructed of. Here are a few tips to keep you on the track to owning a quality steam shower enclosed interval.
Steam Shower Frames
The supporting beams of a steam shower are typically made of aluminum. Aluminum is widely used because of it strength and light weight. The bathtub and shower trays that make up the bottom of many steam showers are typically constructed of a stainless steal frame. It is vital that steam showers have both a sturdy base and strong supporting beams. This is a must when shopping for a steam shower. Beware of cheaper models that have plastic supports, these don’t have near the strength of aluminum and the end can be scratched off straightforwardly.
The tempered glass in steam showers should be at least 5mm thick. Most steam showers have 6mm glass this is something you should question about before purchasing the shower. Thinner glass has a much higher risk of breaking.
Shower doors are another vital part to your steam shower. The seal around the door is very vital if the seal isn’t tight enough to much steam escapes making the unit inefficient.
220 Vs 110
There are some companies that will claim that steam showers run best of 220 volts. This is somewhat right but we have found a way to get the best of both worlds. Steam showers were originally produced for European and Asian countries which run of a 220v power source. But American homes run on 110v power. All of our steam showers have a built in power amplifier which converts your 110v to 220v give your steam generator the power it needs while keeping the unit more efficient. This also saves money when it comes to installing you steam shower.
Stock
There are a lot of websites’ and eBay sellers that don’t have inventories. After you buy the product from them they have it manufactured and shipped taking somewhere from 2-3 months to get your shower. Many of the showers arrive broken because of poor shipping precautions. This seems fantastic if you have the time to wait, but if something goes incorrect with your shower it could be months before you have a replacement part. These companies often have small to no technical support if it seems too excellent to be right it usually is.
Warranty
Steam showers primarily come with a one year warranty on electrical parts and a one year warranty on the shell or acrylic pieces. This is a manufactures warranty. The warranty a company offers some insight to the quality of a steam shower. If they offer a warranty that is longer than the manufactures warranty it is a excellent indicator that the steam shower is a quality unit.
Certifications
There are many Safety certifications such as ETL, CE, UL, and ISO-9001. Depending on where you live your building inspector may require your steam shower to have particular certifications. ETL certification but is universally accepted in the United States and Canada. It is vital to check with your building inspector before purchasing a steam shower that isn’t ETL certified; this can save you from having to return the shower which can be expensive and hold up construction.

Precautions When Using a Steam Shower

bhackett — Wed, 03 Mar 2010 15:41:32 +0000

âSafety firstâ. As with most things, when not used correctly or abused a steam shower can cause harm. This article will upset on a number of different ways to stay safe when using a steam shower.

Steam Shower Precaution 1: Acclimatisation

When using a steam shower for the first time it is vital to ease into the routine, not attempting to reach high temperatures immediately. First timers may have the inclination to stay in the steam shower for a long time as the experience is exciting and exhilarating, but, it is wise not to push the body too hard, therefore start off slowly.

Stay in the steam shower until your body tells you itâs time to stop. Listen to your body and donât force it to stay in the steam shower longer than it feels comfortable. Everyoneâs body is different: Therefore, it is hard to give one generic temperature that people can stay in the steam shower until. One can usually recognize when the body has had enough as you will start to feel uncomfortable. When this is the case, turn the steam function off and exit the steam shower. On your next steam shower session, follow the same procedure and listen to your body. Over time, as your body becomes acclimatized to the hot humid temperatures, you may be able to stay in the steam shower for longer and may be able to sustain higher temperatures.

Steam Shower Precaution 2: Food

While taking a steam shower itâs vital not to bathe on an unfilled or a full stomach. On an unfilled stomach blood sugars may drop, causing the body to feel faint and weak. On the other hand it is vital not to use a steam shower on a full stomach as blood, oxygen and water, which is used in cooling the body, is being used to digest the food. It is best to eat a light snack before using a steam shower.

Steam Shower Precaution 3: Hydration

The main effect a steam shower has on the body is to make it sweat. Sweating lowers the bodyâs water level, therefore it is critical to make sure one is well hydrated before and after a steam shower session. A deficiency in water can results in headaches and other harms. Prevent any harms and drink plenty of water before and after a steam shower session.

Steam Shower Precaution 4: Metal Jewellery, Contact Lenses

Temperatures in a steam shower can reach 44Â°C and above. These temperatures can cause metal jewellery to heat up and potentially burn the skin. Therefore, it is advised not to wear metal jewellery while using a steam shower. Contact lenses can also irritate the eyes while in the steam shower, therefore it is recommended to take them out before a steam session.

Steam Shower Precaution 5: Slipping

As with all showers and baths, it is possible to slip in a steam shower. Be careful when stepping in and out of the steam shower to avoid slipping.

Steam Shower Precaution 6: Rest

Itâs vital not to use a steam shower when your body is exhausted. A exhausted body cannot cope with the high temperatures of a steam shower as efficiently as a body that has a lot of energy. Make sure one is rested before using a steam shower.

Steam Shower Precaution 7: Fainting â Stand up slowly

Standing up to quickly and feeling faint has probably happened to most people at some time or another. It is mainly vital not to stand up too quickly in a steam shower as it may cause you to feel faint. Standing up quickly causes blood to drain from the head, which causes a faint feeling, or even causing the body to faint.

Steam Shower Precaution 8: Steam Outlet

The steam outlet on the steam shower is similar to a kettle in many ways. Water is boiled and is deposited into the steam shower through the steam generator. Steam is hotter than boiling water, therefore it is vital to avoid contact with the steam outlet or be in close proximity to it while the steam function is operating.

Building a Steam Shower – Steam Shower Construction Tips

bhackett — Tue, 02 Mar 2010 15:42:02 +0000

Home steam showers are a hot item these days. A huge obstacle for many people is the cost it takes to buy one.

Building your own steam shower is a cheaper alternative, but before you grab your toolbox…

You don’t have to be Bob Vila to do it, but there are particular tasks are vital to fruitfully build a steam shower. Unless you have the necessary skills, be prepared to work closely with a plumber and an electrician.

Amongst other things, the following three tasks are a necessary part of your checklist:

1. Install a steam shower generator

2. Buy a special door to seal it

3. Cover the roof of the enclosed interval

The last two steps are particularly vital because steam will wreak havoc if it’s able to escape the enclosed interval. It will cause hurt to drywall, paint, and wallpaper. Not to bring up the rotting harms that you’ll have to deal with.

Huge headache.

Covering It Up

A couple of excellent options for this step are to buy an acrylic dome top or a cover made of fiberglass or stainless steel.

Whatever you choose, consider a sloped or curved ceiling. This isn’t necessary, but…

If the ceiling is flat, condensed water will constantly drip straight down.

I’ve used steam enclosures with flat ceilings. It seemed that whenever I was slipping into a peaceful state, I would get hit in the eye with a drop of water!

If there’s a slope, you won’t have to worry about that because water will run down the sides.

Use A Vapor Tight Door

If you’re going to prevent steam from escaping your steam shower enclosed interval, a vapor-tight door is crucial. Shower doors are sold in many different styles and colors.

Install A Steam Shower Generator

Without a steam generator, well… You can’t build a steam shower. The steam generator’s job is to produce water vapor (steam). It’s what will add the steam to your shower.

You can’t buy just any steam generator though! It needs to be the right size. No worries – dealers do provide help in choosing the right develop for your situation.

Depending on your handyman skills, you’ll need to have a plumber and electrician to make connections. In fact, your warranty could be voided if you don’t hire credentialed professionals for the job.

This article outlines just three steps needed for building a steam shower, but you will certainly need to do your homework to learn how to build a steam shower that works. It’s very doable, but you need to make sure you have all your bases covered first to make sure a successful project.
