Infrared saunas are an effective tool for natural healing and prevention. Infrared light has the ability to penetrate human tissue which has the potential of creating a host of anti-aging health benefits making infrared saunas one of the mast sought after home therapies for healthier living.

The following are known and reported benefits of infrared sauna use:

Detoxification

Sweating is a great thing! It is the body’s safe and natural way to heal and eliminate toxins. The Sunlighten far infrared sauna detoxification happens by heating the body directly, causing a rise in core temperature. This results in a deep, detoxifying sweat at the cellular level, where toxins reside.

Relaxation

Infrared is a gentle, soothing and therapeutic heat that promotes relaxation and improved sleep.

Weight Loss

Infrared saunas promote weight loss by helping the body detoxify and burn calories while you relax in total comfort.

Studies have shown that during an infrared sauna session you may burn up to 600 calories while you relax! As the body works to cool itself, there is a substantial increase in heart rate and metabolic rate, causing the body to burn more calories.

Pain Relief

Infrared sauna heat penetrates tissues, joints and muscles to relieve discomfort from minor aches and pains to chronic pain conditions such as fibromyalgia.

Lower Blood Pressure

Sunlighten infrared saunas are backed by clinical research that shows a reduction in systolic and diastolic blood pressure. Sunlighten infrared saunas induce a deep sweat causing the heart pump faster, which increases blood flow, lowers blood pressure, and helps circulation. Scientific evidence shows that using a Sunlighten infrared sauna a couple times a week lowers blood pressure.

Improved Circulation

A Sunlighten infrared sauna session is is like having a passive cardio workout!

Heating the muscles with infrared produces an increase in blood flow similar to that seen during exercise. Regular infrared sauna use – especially in the mid infrared range – can significantly stimulate blood flow up to twice the normal rate.

Anti-Aging

Sunlighten infrared saunas help the body to regenerate and restore skin appearance. The near infrared wavelengths are the most effective for healing the epidermis and dermis layers of the skin. Near infrared stimulates collagen production to help the body reduce wrinkles and improve overall skin tone. Far infrared wavelengths target deeper down, removing toxins that can have a detrimental impact on your skin.

Wound Healing

Scientific research has concluded that near infrared therapy greatly enhances the skin’s healing process by promoting faster cell regeneration and human tissue growth.

Cell Health

Near infrared light stimulates the circulatory system to help the body more fully oxygenate its cells. Better blood circulation means more toxins are able to be released and removed, flowing from the cellular level to the skin’s surface to improve cell health by helping the body eliminate toxic build up, aid in muscle recovery and strengthen the immune system.
