Personal care apparatus and personal care room comprising the same

A personal care apparatus constituting a personal care room that can be used to increase a deep body temperature of a user, the apparatus comprising:

• a bedrock installed on a floor such that a proportion of the bedrock occupying a surface area inside the personal care room is 10% or more, the bedrock containing lava that has air permeability and generates far-infrared radiation;
• an electric heater that heats the bedrock from an inside or a backside thereof;
• a plate-shaped heat insulating material arranged so as to support a bottom surface of the electric heater from below;
• a plate-shaped holding member arranged so as to support a back surface of the heat insulating material;
• a metal film member provided at least on an upper surface of the electric heater;
• a temperature sensor mounted in a recess formed in a front surface of the bedrock;
• a temperature regulating part that regulates a magnitude of electric power to be supplied to the electric heater so as to regulate an amount of heat generated by the electric heater;
• a control apparatus that controls a surface temperature of the bedrock to be 38-43° C.;
• an audio signal transmission system that transmits an audio signal to the user;
• and
• an audio output system that outputs sound based on the audio signal transmitted from the audio signal transmission system,
• wherein each of the bedrock, the heater and the heat insulating material is simply placed, without being fixed, on an upper side of the holding member.
