Full-spectrum infrared sauna
The human body is a heat-driven life force that requires a temperature average of 100 degrees F to be alive. Heat therapy increases blood flow and thereby improves every aspect of human function. Heat therapies have long been used for healing and wellness, dating all the way back to the ancient Greeks, Romans, and Mayans. Full-spectrum saunas use both near-infrared and far-infrared light to produce heat. Far infrared saunas generate a longer wavelength heat that penetrates deeper into the skin, allowing for more effective therapeutic benefits. Near-infrared saunas, on the other hand, produce short wavelengths of light which remain closer to the surface of the skin. This gives full-spectrum a more intense and beneficial therapeutic experience than just far infrared alone. Additionally, full-spectrum infrared saunas can help to release chemicals from fat cells through sweating, whereas far infrared saunas alone do not have this same detoxifying effect.

11 Proven Clinical Health Benefits of Sauna Use

1. Supercharge your cell power

2. Cell regeneration which slows the aging process. Studies show that two to three sauna sessions per week decrease risk of cardiovascular death by 23%

3. Detoxify heavy metals and chemicals

4. Make your heart happy and healthy. A 2018 study found that sauna use four to seven times per week reduces the risk of death from cardiovascular disease by as much as 58%

5. Reduce blood pressure. Sauna heat helps widen blood vessels and improve circulation, which reduces blood pressure.

6. Optimize athletic performance. Blood flow improvements from hyperthermic conditioning (heat conditioning) sends more blood to the heart, leading to an increase in plasma and red blood cell volume. That process delivers more oxygen throughout the body, fueling athletic performance.

7. Improve muscle function and recovery. As more blood flow and oxygen is delivered throughout the body, muscles increase in size and muscle breakdown is diminished. One study showed that two, one-hour sauna sessions for seven days straight increases production of the human growth hormone (HGH) by two to five times.

8. Fuel weight loss. Regular sauna use is shown to regulate the appetite, increase metabolism, and improve oxygen utilization, helping to fuel weight loss along with a reduction in body fat.

9. Boost brain function. The brain-derived neurotrophic factor, or BDNF increases with regular sauna use, activating the growth of new brain cells, better maintaining existing cells, and improving neuroplasticity, the brain’s process for forming new neural connections.

10. Ignite your immune system. Heat exposure from sauna use increases the heat shock protein, stimulating antigen-presenting cells, along with releasing cytokine, thus stimulating the body’s natural immune system.

11. Improve emotional health and mood. When your body and brain are healthy, detoxified, and destressed, and you’ve boosted endorphins, your overall mood and emotional health improves.
