Benefits of an infrared sauna

The full spectrum saunas at The Body Place are unique in that they emit near, mid, and far infrared heat all at once. This means that in addition to the far infrared benefits listed above, full spectrum saunas can be good for localized pain relief, cell health, skin renewal, and wound healing. 

Types of Infrared:

• Near-infrared (NIR): Promotes wound healing, enhances cell regeneration, and supports skin health. 
• Mid-infrared (MIR): Has a superficial absorption and less penetration, with benefits mainly at skin level. 
• Far-infrared (FIR): Penetrates deeper into the body, allowing for deep heat and raising core body temperature. 

• Detoxification: Infrared saunas promote sweating, which can help eliminate toxins and heavy metals from the body. 

• Improved Circulation: The heat from infrared saunas increases blood flow, which can help relieve muscle tension, reduce pain, and improve overall circulation. 

• Cardiovascular Health: Studies suggest that infrared saunas may help lower blood pressure, reduce stress on the heart, and improve cardiovascular health. 

• Pain Relief: Infrared heat can penetrate deep into the tissues, providing relief from pain caused by conditions such as arthritis, fibromyalgia, and muscle strains. 

• Skin Health: Infrared saunas can stimulate collagen production, which may improve skin elasticity, reduce wrinkles, and promote skin rejuvenation. 

• Improved Sleep: The relaxation and heat from infrared saunas can help promote better sleep quality. 

• Boost Immune System: Some research suggests that infrared saunas may help boost the immune system by increasing white blood cell production. 

• Reduced Stress: Infrared saunas provide a relaxing and calming environment, which can help reduce stress and anxiety. 

• Reduce Inflammation: Infrared saunas reduce inflammation.  

• Improve Mood: Infrared saunas help improve mood.  

• Promote Weight Loss: Infrared saunas help promote weight loss. You can burn up to 800 calories in a single session.
