Infrared Sauna

Few things can immediately sooth our achy muscles and relax our busy minds like a sauna. Health professionals worldwide recognize the benefits of saunas to promote blood circulation and oxygenation of body tissues; to relief aches, pains, and general stiffness; to eliminate body toxins by promoting perspiration; and even to help burn some unwanted calories.

While traditional saunas, sweat lodges, and steam showers provide such benefits, they typically operate at uncomfortably hot temperatures, sometimes in excess of 180F, thus making them difficult to tolerate for anything more than a few minutes. This is particularly true for the elderly or those with asthma or other breathing or cardiovascular problems who could otherwise benefit the most from sauna heat therapy.

Far-infrared saunas offer the solution. They operate at far lower temperatures, usually in the range of 110 to 130F, yet still offer all of the benefits of a traditional sauna. An infrared sauna heats the body with radiant heat, creating deep tissue warming and profuse sweating. However, the air surrounding you remains more comfortable, creating relaxing stress-free environment where you can listen to music, read a book, or just relax and forget about the busyness of everyday life. Most importantly, infrared saunas are completely safe (far infrared light is the spectrum of light from the sun that makes us feel warm), providing all the benefits of natural sunlight without the harmful effects of ultraviolet radiation.
