A standing tanning booth gives users a more evenly tanned area all over. Traditional tanning methods use a tanning bed where the user lies down, then shuts the top down over them. The standing booths use a different type of reflector, which helps UV rays spread around the body because the lamps are placed at various places in the vertical tanning booth. When you are tanning vertically, users can more freely move about to get a better, more evenly tanned effect. A vertical tanning booth allows users to tan in areas which are difficult to hit in a horizontal bed, such as the shoulders, hips, and back of the legs. Also, for people who may get a little claustrophobic in horizontal beds, standing tanning booth supplies a more comfortable experience. Vertical tanning booths can be used both commercially and in residential homes. They also prove to take less time to get an even tan than the standard tanning bed.
Health Benefits in Tanning
Vitamin D and tanning booths form a great partnership. The sun gives us 80% to 100% of Vitamin D, which is vital in regulating the body’s calcium and phosphorous needs. Vitamin D helps the human body to develop and grow healthy bones, teeth, and helps our immune system to fight against diseases. If the body doesn’t get enough Vitamin D, people are at risk of developing bone abnormalities such as osteomalacia or osteoporosis. Vitamin D deficiency can also lead to heart disease, depression, diabetes, hypertension and obesity. Tanning booths are installed with lamps which emit UVA rays that, if tanning is done moderately, does not cause burning while also giving users a healthy dose of Vitamin D. Research is presently taking place to help prove tanning beds and tanning booths can be used to treat diseases which stem from Vitamin D deficiency. Psychiatrists are also researching if tanning booths and beds help the body to release more serotonin, the mood-lifting chemical in the brain which gives us the feel good emotions. Also, the FDA highly regulates the tanning industry, thus all equipment is governed by a eurythmic dosage, which is the amount of time it takes the lamps to produce a slight pink coloration of the skin. The FDA approves each lamp with a prescribed dosage amount which means a set time limit of exposure.
Vertical Tanning Booth Design
The design of a standing tanning booth is of both supreme quality and technical superiority, because a client’s health is at stake. Their design features either an acrylic or a wire lamp guard, a digital hour counter with a clear timing display to account for all tanning time. They are designed with a dual airflow system which provides sufficient cooling for both the user and the lamps. A vertical tanning requires a managed airflow system to keep the lamps running at their peak levels for users to receive a safe tanning outcome. The cooling also prolongs the life of the lamps. These booths feature a ventilated floor, a clean and colorful finish which is easy to clean and is very hygienic.
