WHAT IS INFRARED?
Our infrared sauna is a unique tool as it can aid in both facilitating recovery as well as improving athletic performance. The recovery benefits include muscle pain relief, improved circulatory function and improved sleep quality. Performance benefits include increased endurance and improved tolerance to an increase in training intensity.
Infrared rays are healthy wavelengths that come from the sun. They are felt on the skin as warmth and are absorbed by your body to help you relax, improve circulation, recover faster, sleep better, feel better, age well, and naturally detoxify by stimulating the release of toxins at a cellular level.
NOT YOUR TRADITIONAL
SAUNA EXPERIENCE!
Unlike a traditional sauna that uses a heating source to warm the air around you, infrared heats your body, directly utilizing infrared wavelengths of light. The feeling is similar to lying in the sun on a warm day and feeling the heat radiate to the core of your body. Your body readily absorbs infrared heat, which allows your core temperature to increase slowly and induces a comfortable, deep, detoxifying sweat.
Infrared stimulates the circulatory system, more fully oxygenating the body’s cells, allowing for better blood circulation. Increased heart rate within a tranquil sauna environment triggers the body’s “rest response” in the parasympathetic nervous system, promoting relaxation as you perspire.
HOW DOES INFRARED SAUNA WORK?
There are three categories of infrared based on wave size, frequency, and the amount of energy they carry: near (NIR), mid (MIR) and far (FIR). Each of these types of wavelengths have unique characteristics and present beautifully unique healing capabilities within our bodies. With the full spectrum of all three wavelengths inside your sauna cabin, you have yourself a powerhouse of therapeutic energy. Near, Mid and Far Infrared work in conjunction with each other, heightening the benefits to you and creating an amazing detoxification/recovery experience.
NEAR (NIR) INFRARED
The shortest wavelength, absorbed just below the surface of the skin.
- Promotes wound healing, cell health/regeneration, skin revitalization
- Mitigates inflammation.
MID (MIR) INFRARED
- Increases circulation
- Help oxygen to reach injured areas, decreasing inflammation, pain and overall healing time.
FAR (FIR) INFRARED
- Results in the greatest levels of detoxification
- Stimulates your metabolism to aid in weight management
- Can reduce pain, ease joint stiffness, decrease inflammation and alleviate overall body stress

Increasing core body temperature affects circulation like cardio exercise. It stimulates sluggish metabolism and helps eliminate toxins that cause fat storage, making sauna a great support to weight loss efforts and weight management.
Many professional athletes use infrared saunas to recover from training and injuries as infrared penetrates joints, improves flexibility, relieves muscle soreness, and aids in tissue regeneration.
Infrared waves penetrate deep to eliminate toxins that accumulate and disrupt wellbeing — from toxic heavy metals, drug residues and environmental toxicants, to hormone disruptors. Infrared waves also support lymphatic drainage and support the body’s detox systems.
The skin’s appearance improves with regular use of infrared sauna sessions as pores open from the deeper sweat induced by infrared light therapy.
Our sauna infrared technology has been clinically proven to temporarily reduce both systolic and diastolic blood pressure.

VIBRATIONAL SOUND THERAPY
Sound therapy enhances relaxation and rejuvenation. You can unwind and de-stress even more in your sauna with the Acoustic Resonance Therapy (A.R.T.) by So Sound. This sonic technology combines the healing effects of sound and vibration therapy to relax your body and calm your mind.
Sound-amplifying discs mounted under the bench utilize sound as a therapy modality that can induce a calming effect. A combination of calming music and healing vibration move through the body and mind, so your body absorbs the vibration you also hear. So Sound research showed that after just 10 minutes with A.R.T., brain waves were calmer and more balanced.
