Fitness enthusiasts, professionals, bodybuilders, runners, and everyone in between are recommending infrared heat therapy as a part of a terrific workout regimen. It’s not just a fad — saunas have been used for thousands of years to rejuvenate, heal, relax, and refresh the whole body. While traditional wet/dry saunas heat your body from the outside by making the air hot, infrared saunas do the exact opposite— heating your body inside-out. The heat and light can penetrate your skin and trigger an intense, detoxifying sweat.

How does infrared create burned calories?

“Far-infrared energy deeply penetrates the skin and warms the muscles and joints,” says Dr. Joseph Mercola. The light penetrates deep into the body and while it gets our hearts to beat faster, it helps us burn calories, while raising your metabolism.

The sauna’s deep penetrating heat cause your core body temperature to rise, and as your body works to cool down, your heart rate increases which results in burned calories! Clients have burned up to 600 calories in a 30 minute session. That’s the same amount of calories burned by running for 2 hours!

Can anyone infrared sauna?

Infrared sauna is safe for people of all ages and health stages. Please consult your doctor if you are pregnant or have heart problems before using the infrared sauna.

How should I prepare for my infrared sauna?

Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate!!! Drink more water than normal before and after your treatment. As your body heats from the inside out you will increase heart rate and sweat, meaning you need more water!

It’s gunna’ get hot in there. Although we do offer none-heat and low heat options, most of our clients prefer our dual heat air system. This means you are going to get hot and you are going to sweat. We recommend wearing as little clothes as possible, and preferably none at all! If you choose to wear clothes, we recommend breathable shorts and t-shirt.
