Infrared Sauna

Infrared saunas use light to create heat in the body to aid in detoxification, immune boosting, management of pain, lower inflammation, relaxation, and to help reduce stress.  

Increase Metabolism and Burn Calories 

• As you relax in the gentle far infrared heat, your body is actually hard at work producing sweat, pumping blood, and burning calories. As your body increases sweat production to cool itself, your heart will work harder to pump blood at a greater rate to boost circulation. This increase in your metabolism will burn calories. 
• An article in the journal of the American Medical Association, concluded that a 30 minute infrared sauna session could burn up to 600 calories (like running 30 minutes)!
  
  

Relieve Pain & Heal Faster

• Relieve inflammation, stiffness, and soreness by increasing blood circulation.  Also allow the deep, penetrating infrared heat to relax muscles and carry off metabolic waste products, while delivering oxygen-rich blood to the muscles for a faster recovery.
• Benefits the sore, damaged or tired muscles of an athlete by assisting muscle repair and help in the reduction of lactic acids, which allows tight and overexerted muscles to relax.
• Warm the muscles for greater flexibility and range of motion, while relieving muscle tension and pain.
• By reducing soreness on nerve endings, infrared heat reduces muscle spasms and helps the body heal itself naturally.
• Find relief from injuries, fibromyalgia, joint pain/stiffness and other chronic pain conditions such as arthritis and Lyme disease with continuous use of infrared heat therapy.
  
  

Improves the Immune System

• Raises your core body temperature, inducing an artificial fever. Fever is the body’s natural mechanism to strengthen and accelerate the immune response, as seen in the case of infection.
• This enhanced immune system, combined with improved elimination of toxins and wastes via intense sweating, increases your overall health and resistance to disease.

Detoxification

• Infrared Sauna heat increases your blood circulation and stimulates the sweat glands, releasing built up toxins (drugs, pollutants, pesticides, heavy metals etc.) in the body.
• Infrared saunas allow you to eliminate 7 times more toxins than a traditional sauna.
• Saunas also stimulate cells to release toxins which can then be eliminated by the liver, kidneys and bowel.
  
  

Reduces Stress, Fatigue, Depression and Anxiety

• Relax to help reduce stress and anxiety.  Just a few minutes in the gentle warmth and you’ll feel relaxed, rejuvenated and renewed.
• Infrared saunas have been shown to affect the autonomic nervous system by putting you in the parasympathetic (rest and digest) state, allowing the body to heal and restore itself.
• The act of just sitting still and resting in the warmth of the sauna clears your mind. It’s a wonderful way to self-soothe and change the emotional and cognitive state in a relatively short period of time.
  
  

Improves Skin

• The sweating carries off deeply embedded impurities and dead skin cells leaving the skin glowing and immaculately clean. 
• Increased circulation draws your skin’s own natural nutrients to the surface. Improved tone, elasticity, texture and fresh color.
  
  

Reduces Blood Pressure

• Reduces both systolic and diastolic blood pressure - both key factors in maintaining a healthy heart.
• A report by The Journal of Cardiology concluded that repeated infrared sauna treatments improved blood vessel functions in patients with high blood pressure, diabetes and high cholesterol.
