Infrared Sauna

Infrared light, the invisible part of the sun’s spectrum, has the ability to penetrate human tissue to produce a host of health benefits. It is naturally occurring from the sun and is the basis for Infrared Saunas. Healthy infrared rays penetrate deeply in to your skin and help to dislodge harmful substances accumulated in your body. A traditional sauna uses heat to warm the air, typically at temperatures between 180-220F, which in turn warms your body. An infrared sauna uses light for heat in the body. As the Infrared Sauna therapy heats the body, it raises the core body temperature and produces a deep, detoxifying sweat at the cellular level, where most toxins reside. Infrared saunas help your body release a number of toxins including heavy metals like mercury, lead, as well as environmental chemicals. Far infrared also helps to reduce blood pressure and assists with weight loss, burning up to 600 calories in one 40-minute session!

• Infrared saunas offer several advantages over conventional saunas:

  • Infrared saunas facilitate detoxification at a cellular level, thus detoxifying the body from heavy metals, such as: aluminum, mercury, lead, and cadmium, and purifying the cells where our body stores harmful toxins and waste products.
  • The high core temperature of a sauna causes the body to sweat. Why is this important? Sweating is the body’s safe, natural way to detoxify and heal itself. Sweat pushes toxins out of the body through the pores. By releasing heat, sweating keeps your internal core temperature at a consistent, healthy level.
  • Because it operates more effectively at temperatures 60-80 degrees lower than conventional saunas, detoxification from an infrared sauna is 7-10 times greater than that which can be achieved with a conventional sauna.
  • In an infrared sauna, the average person sweats out 20% toxins and 80% water, whereas in a conventional sauna the average person sweats out 3% toxins and 97% water.

  Some people with heavy metal, chemical or pesticide toxicity levels may find it difficult to sweat initially; For some individuals it may require several sessions before any measurable sweat volume is noticed. Even without any noticeable sweat, the FAR Infrared sauna is helping to eliminate toxins through urine, bowels and hair.

• Our sauna also features LED color light therapy, also known as chromotherapy. Color light therapy is a technique of restoring balance by means of applying color to the body. Its history is rooted as far back as the Mayan culture and has been valued as a remarkable source of healing. Light therapy taps the proposed healing properties of colors and is known for bringing balance to emotional and physical disturbances. It is based on the premise that different colors evoke different body responses. Some colors are considered to be stimulating, whereas others are more soothing. Therapeutic applications of light and color are currently being investigated in major hospitals and research centers worldwide. Results indicate that full-spectrum, ultraviolet, colored, and laser light can have therapeutic value for a range of conditions from chronic pain and depression to immune disorders.

  Each session in our sauna includes this option — it is standard, no extra cost.

  Before entering the sauna, it is important that you are hydrated. You may bring your own water into the sauna or bottled water is available in the room. Please make sure you come with a clean face, as makeup may clog your pores.
