The Season for Far-Infrared
Winter and the holiday season are a great time to support the lymphatics and the largest detoxification organ – the skin. Far-infrared can offer a number of benefits, including increased cell energy production to boost collagen and elastin production, increased circulation, calorie and fat burning, increased muscle relaxation, and faster injury recovery. Choice Nutrition offers these excellent far-infrared options: 1) Saunas that use toxin-free, 100% Canadian basswood finished with beeswax and that have low EMF output. 2) The Cocoon Wellness Pod, with individualized settings from low heat to hyperthermic, a vibrating base, a head covering, and an infra-red setting.
