Service Description

Unlike a traditional sauna, infrared saunas don’t heat the air around you. Instead, infrared lamps, which use electromagnetic radiation, warm your body directly. “These saunas use infrared panels instead of conventional heat to easily penetrate human tissue, heating up your body before heating up the air. An infrared sauna can operate at a lower temperature — usually between 120˚F and 140˚F (49°C and 60°C) — than a traditional sauna, which is typically between 150˚F and 180˚F (66°C and 82°C). The supposed benefits of using an infrared sauna are similar to those of a traditional sauna. These include: better sleep relaxation detoxification weight loss relief from sore muscles relief from joint pain such as arthritis clear and tighter skin improved circulation relief from chronic fatigue syndrome symptoms People have used saunas for centuries for all sorts of health conditions. While there are several studies and research on traditional saunas, not many have looked specifically at infrared saunas. Some research has shown that using an infrared sauna may be beneficial for cardiovascular and muscle recovery after a workout. Even if your sweat session doesn’t do all the things it claims to do, at least it still feels good. Plus, it can contribute to your overall health and well-being by helping you relax, loosening up stiff or tight muscles, reducing joint pain, and giving you some much-needed time to yourself.
