Infrared Sauna

An infrared sauna is a type of sauna that uses infrared heaters to emit radiant heat that is absorbed directly by the body’s surface. Unlike traditional saunas, which heat the air to warm the body indirectly, infrared saunas heat the body directly, providing a gentler and more comfortable experience for many people.

What to Expect: Infrared Sauna

What to Expect:

Infrared Heat: Our infrared saunas use infrared heaters to produce infrared radiation. These heaters emit electromagnetic waves in the infrared spectrum, which are felt as heat by the body.

Temperature: Infrared saunas operate at lower temperatures than traditional saunas, usually between 120°F to 150°F (49°C to 66°C). This makes the experience more tolerable for those who may find the intense heat of a traditional sauna uncomfortable.

Heating Mechanism: Infrared saunas heat the body directly rather than heating the air. This allows individuals to experience the benefits of heat therapy without the high temperatures associated with conventional saunas.

Time: Infrared sauna sessions are 30 minutes or 40 minutes

Chromotherapy: Chromotherapy, also known as color therapy or color healing, is a complementary and alternative therapy that uses colors and light to promote physical, emotional, and mental well-being. The belief underlying chromotherapy is that different colors have specific vibrational frequencies that can have various effects on the human body and mind.

Red: Often associated with vitality, energy, and stimulation.

Blue: Linked to calmness, relaxation, and communication.

Yellow: Thought to promote clarity, optimism, and creativity.

Green: Associated with balance, harmony, and healing.

Violet: Linked to spirituality, transformation, and intuition.

FAQs




Is Infrared Sauna Use Safe?

Infrared saunas are generally considered safe for most people when used properly and for appropriate durations. However, like any form of heat therapy, there are some precautions and considerations to keep in mind:

Consult with a healthcare professional: Before using an infrared sauna, it’s a good idea to consult with a healthcare provider, especially if you have underlying medical conditions or are pregnant. They can provide guidance based on your specific health status.

Stay hydrated: Sweating in an infrared sauna can cause fluid loss, so it’s essential to drink plenty water before, during, and after your session to stay hydrated.

Know your limits: If you start to feel lightheaded, dizzy, or uncomfortable during a sauna session, exit the sauna immediately and cool down.

Avoid alcohol and drugs: It’s best to avoid alcohol and recreational drugs before using an infrared sauna, as they can impair your body’s ability to regulate temperature.

Protect your skin and eyes: It’s advisable to wear loose-fitting clothing and remove any metal jewelry or objects before entering the sauna. You can also use a towel or seat cover to protect your skin from direct contact with the sauna’s surfaces. Additionally, protect your eyes by keeping them closed during the session or wearing protective eyewear if needed.

Limit frequency: While some people use infrared saunas daily, it’s essential to listen to your body. If you experience any adverse effects, consider spacing out your sessions or reducing their duration.

Pre-existing conditions: Individuals with certain medical conditions, such as cardiovascular issues, multiple sclerosis, or severe skin conditions, should consult their healthcare provider before using an infrared sauna. In some cases, sauna use may be contraindicated.

Pregnancy and medical conditions: Pregnant women and individuals with certain medical conditions (e.g., epilepsy, high blood pressure, recent surgeries, or open wounds) should avoid using infrared saunas or consult with a healthcare provider before doing so.
