Why Infrared
Because infrared sauna therapy heats the body directly rather than simply warming the air, it raises the core body temperature and produces a deep, detoxifying sweat at the cellular level, where most toxins reside. Our saunas offer are full spectrum infrared offering nir, far & mid rays.
Infrared Light and Your Body
Detox
Sweating is the body’s safe and natural way to heal & stay healthy. Far infrared (FIR) sauna use causes a rise in core temperature resulting in a deep, detoxifying sweat at the cellular level, where toxins reside.
Weight Loss
Studies have shown that a far infrared (FIR) sauna therapy session can burn upwards of 600 calories while you relax. As the body works to cool itself, there is a substantial increase in heart rate, cardiac output and metabolic rate, causing the body to burn more calories. Far infrared (FIR) therapy can lower weight and reduce waist circumference in justa three-month period.
Anti-Aging
Near infrared (NIR) sauna therapy provides the most effective wavelength for healing the epidermis and dermis layers of the skin, stimulating collagen production to reduce wrinkles and improve overall skin tone.
Improve Circulation
Sunlighten™ sauna treatments are like giving your body a passive cardiovascular workout. Heating the muscles with infrared rays produces an increase in blood flow similar to that seen during exercise. Regular infrared sauna use can significantly stimulate blood flow up to twice the normal rate.
Lower Blood Pressure
Infrared saunas induce a deep sweat to make the heart pump faster, which in turn increases blood flow, lowers blood pressure and helps circulation, key factors in maintaining a healthy heart.
Relieve Pain
Infrared heat penetrates tissue, joints, and muscles to relieve everything from minor aches and pains to chronic pain conditions such as fibromyalgia and arthritis, and speeds up recovery time. Sunlighten’s 3-in-1 treatments can increase flexibility up to 3x.
Cell Health
Near infrared (NIR) sauna therapy stimulates the circulatory system and more fully oxygenate the body’s cells. Better blood circulation means more toxins flow from the cellular level to the skin’s surface to improve cell health, aid in muscle recovery and strengthen the immune system.
Heal Wounds
Near infrared therapy (NIR) greatly enhances the skin’s healing process by promoting faster cell regeneration and human tissue growth.
Personalize Each Session with Chromotherapy
Ancient cultures developed medical systems based on energetic principles of the universe and the somatic cellular body. The Sanskrit principle of Ayurveda describes the wheels of life or Chakras as originating from subtle energy known as Prana. This type of subtle energy can be modulated by electromagnetic field/visible light to stimulate the brain/nervous system, cellular tissues, and bodily organs. Visible light is emitted in the form of photons that are absorbed through the skin and the active receptors in the eyes. Once absorbed, proteins or photopigments are activated at specific wavelengths to produce chemical reactions in the body. These reactions can produce various therapeutic biochemical benefits depending on their wavelength
