REDDING, CA - April 24, 2008 - A California-based company called Sun
Life Saunas aims to help firefighters tackle another danger besides
fires - the harmful chemicals they're exposed to during and after a
firefighting episode.
Whether a fire burns a home, business, automobile, or even a forest,
harmful toxins pollute the air as certain items burn. Firefighters are
exposed to many of these chemicals despite their protective gear and
masks. Even after a fire has been extinguished, potentially cancer-
causing chemicals may be released into the air through smoldering
plastics, paints, glue, wraps, and other building materials. A few
dangerous chemicals that may be released include hydrogen cyanide,
carbon monoxide and hydrochloric acid.
Sun Life Saunas decided to take the usual relaxing and rejuvenating
benefits of saunas to the next level with revolutionary far infrared
sauna heat therapy along with Carbon Wave 360 technology. But
relaxation isn't the only goal when it comes to firefighters. The
company also promotes detoxification of the body as a major benefit
for firefighters.
Smoke inhalation and chemicals absorbed through the skin can cause
many long-term health problems. According to a study by the University
of Cincinnati, firefighters are more likely to develop testicular
cancer, prostate cancer, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, and multiple myeloma.
Detoxification helps remove these toxins before they cause serious
illness. Increasing the core temperature through infrared sauna
therapy sessions may also reduce the presence of cancer-causing cells
since they are not as tolerant to heat as normal healthy cells.
Jim Montana, co-founder of Sun Life Saunas, states, "Since
firefighters are continuously exposed to harmful toxins, it's
pertinent that the toxins are removed from their bodies on a regular
basis. Frequent sauna sessions with the new infrared technology
penetrates deep to remove toxins that are stored in fat cells. Special
pricing is available for firefighters. We want to make it easy for
firefighters to own their own sauna so they can receive this needful
therapy every day."
Sauna sessions can also help relieve firefighters of muscle aches and
pains that come from working under strenuous conditions while carrying
the weight of protective gear and clothing.
"Another benefit we're seeing is the sauna helps increase collateral
circulation of blood vessels, which can reduce or lower blood
pressure. This is a significant benefit for firefighters because heart
attacks are so prevalent among those in this profession," states
Lorraine Montana, co-founder of the company.
