Instead of using stove heating a pile of rocks as in a traditional sauna, an infrared sauna uses infrared lamps to create warmth. The process allows the sauna to operate at a lower temperature. A traditional sauna usually heats between 150\u00b0-195\u00b0F, while the infrared sauna is generally set between 110\u00b0-135\u00b0 – more comfortable for the user.<\/h5>\n
Full-Spectrum Infrared Heaters in the sauna emit near, mid and far infrared wavelengths, providing a wide range of therapeutic benefits:<\/h5>\n
    \n
  • NEAR infrared – has a lower micron level and penetrates the epidermis layer of the skin, leading to improved cell health, renewal of skin, tissue growth and inflammation reduction.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  • MID infrared – penetrates the body tissue leading to increased blood flow and circulation, reducing muscle and joint pain.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  • FAR infrared – penetrates the deepest into the tissue to break down toxins. Activates the sweat glands to help the body to eliminate toxins.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    As the infrared waves penetrate your body, you will feel a pleasant internal warming sensation. Over time, you will begin to perspire. The heat causes a release of endorphins from your brain, leaving you relaxed. The heat also causes your blood vessels to expand, improving circulation and enhancing your body’s immune and cellular systems.<\/p>\n

    Health benefits from infrared therapy may include detoxification<\/strong>, weight loss<\/strong>, improved circulation<\/strong>, pain relief<\/strong>, and improved sleep<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

      FAQ’s (Frequently Asked Questions)<\/strong><\/p>\n

      How long should my sauna session last?<\/strong> Start low and slow, dialing down the temperature to see how you feel, with a shorter session (20 minutes). Build up to 30-45 minute sessions.<\/p>\n

      How often should I use the sauna?<\/strong> Sauna therapy is most beneficial with regular use. After a few sessions, your body begins to acclimate itself to the sauna and you’ll begin to feel the difference.<\/p>\n

      Any special preparations?<\/strong> Make sure you are well hydrated. Drink plenty of water before, during and after your session.<\/p>\n

      Who should not use the sauna?<\/strong> Do not use the sauna if you are pregnant or trying to conceive. If you have any pre-existing medical conditions or are on any prescription medications, it is best to consult with your physician before using the sauna.<\/p>\n
