"Answer:

Over-exposure to certain types of electromagnetic radiation can be harmful. The higher the frequency of the radiation, the more damage it is likely to cause to the body: infrared radiation is felt as heat and causes skin to burn.

"Answer:

While microwaves and infrared both fall into the electromagnetic spectrum, and contain a few similarities, the heat emitted is overall very different. Microwaves operate at a frequency that makes it a form of non-ionizing radiation, meaning minimized exposure is not damaging to humans. Infrared saunas use infrared radiation: an electromagnetic wavelength longer than light waves and shorter than radio waves. Infrared rays go through the skin without burning it, warming the cells beneath this layer safely. Infrared waves are shorter than microwaves and therefore less dangerous and not as strong. But, Over-exposure to certain types of electromagnetic radiation can be harmful. The higher the frequency of the radiation, the more damage it is likely to cause to the body: infrared radiation is felt as heat and causes skin to burn.
