The power of infrared sauna therapy

The experience of an infrared sauna is akin to the rush of warmth you feel when the sun breaks through on a cloudy day. That warming sensation you feel is the band of infrared sunlight warming your body. Our saunas channel this infrared heat to penetrate your muscles, skin, joints and tissues in order to increase circulation and enhance oxygen flow, helping rid the body of impurities within your cells, where waste, cholesterol, heavy metals and other toxins are stored.

Use the above tabs to discover how infrared sauna benefits the mind, body and soul.

Sweating is the body’s safe and natural way to detox

One of the main health benefits of an infrared sauna is its ability to increase your blood circulation and stimulate the sweat glands, releasing built-up toxins in the body; such as lead, mercury, nickel, alcohol, nicotine, sulfuric acid and other organic and inorganic compounds.

We’re no strangers to the power of sweat when it comes to detoxing, it has been known for decades that sweating is a wonderful way to get rid of stored chemicals. The skin is our largest organ, and sweat is one of the major elimination channels for toxins.

We consume more toxic materials today than ever before; heavy metals in our environment, hormones in our meat and even pesticides on our produce. Sweating in an infrared sauna can help detoxify your body. 

Create healthier cells and build a stronger immune system

More than ever we’re doing everything we can to avoid germs, washing our hands; taking vitamins, but without a healthy immune system we are vulnerable. 

The deep heating from the infrared heaters will raise your core body temp, inducing an artificial fever. How does this build immunity? A fever is the body’s natural mechanism to strengthen and accelerate the immune response, as seen in the case of infection.

An enhanced immune system, combined with improved elimination of toxins and wastes via intense sweating, increases your overall health and resistance to disease.

Leave every session with a fresh glow and immaculately clean skin

The profuse sweating achieved during your infrared sauna session carries off deeply embedded impurities, cleansing your pores of toxins and helping the skin expel dead  skin cells. You’ll see improved tone, elasticity, texture and fresh color.  

Increased blood circulation draws your skin’s own natural nutrients to the surface and has been shown to relieve acne, eczema, psoriasis and minimise the constant itch associated with these skin conditions. In addition, burns, cuts and open wounds heal more quickly, helping to reduce scarring.

Support your body to make the most of its intended healing abilities

The deep heat that occurs during an infrared sauna session helps peripheral blood vessels dilate, bringing relief and healing to muscle and soft tissue injuries. Increased blood circulation carries off metabolic waste products and delivers oxygen-rich blood to oxygen-depleted muscles, so they recover faster.  

Muscles relax the most when tissues are warm, for greater flexibility and range of motion. Help muscles recover faster, decrease inflammation and relieve tension, aches and pain to start living a pain free life.

Relax in the gentle infrared heat and let your body do all the hard work️

As your body increases sweat production and pumps blood at a greater rate to boost circulation, it’s busy burning calories – up to 600 calories in a single infrared session.

Infrared heat penetrates the skin and muscles up to 8cms, at the same time it mobilises and burns fat. Not only does this help with weight loss but with detoxification as well, since many of the toxins we absorb are surrounded and trapped by fat.

Plus, cellulite reduction is an added benefit. The increased heart rate and blood circulation work together to stop fatty deposits and fibrosis from accumulating liquids in the fat cells to reduce the appearance of cellulite.

Relax with the pure heat of infrared and let your body heal

Just a few minutes in the gentle warmth of an infrared sauna brings a great calm and peace to the mind that is worried, excited, or in a constant nervous state. Your body will release serotonin and increase dopamine levels in your brain, much like the natural high you get after a workout, and improve feelings of happiness. 

By using an infrared sauna before bed, you calm your mind and body, promoting restful sleep. A calmer mind sleeps better for longer than a restless one. Over time, this therapy will improve natural melatonin and other sleep related hormone levels to help you get better rest naturally.
