What is Infrared Sauna Therapy
An infrared sauna is a relaxing therapy that facilitates an invigorating and detoxifying deep tissue sweat, leaving you fully refreshed after each session. Unlike traditional saunas, full-spectrum infrared saunas use special heaters that directly penetrate into the body. The infrared energy augments the body’s healing mechanisms, allowing toxins and pollutants stored in fat cells to be dissolved and washed away through natural body functions. And because infrared light has the ability to penetrate human tissue, this sauna, in turn, produces a host of anti-aging health benefits as well as relief from chronic pain.
Infrared Benefits
RELAX
the
Mind
Who doesn't need a quiet hour to themselves to unwind?
Infrared sauna therapy helps you relax while getting an invigorating deep tissue sweat, leaving you fully refreshed, rejuvenated & renewed.
​
Unlike traditional saunas, infrared saunas provide a gentle, soothing therapeutic heat that promotes relaxation & improved sleep.
DETOX
the
Body
We consume more toxic materials today than ever before.
Infrared sauna heat increases your blood circulation to help stimulate the sweat glands, releasing built-up toxins in the body which can then be eliminated by the liver and bowel. Regular infrared sauna sessions can help detoxify your body as it rids itself of accumulated highly toxic metals such as lead, mercury, nickel, alcohol, nicotine, sulfuric acid, and other organic and inorganic compounds.
BURN
Calories
Lose Weight while doing nothing!
As you relax in an IR sauna, your body is actually hard at work producing sweat, pumping blood, and burning calories. As your body increases sweat production to cool itself, your heart will work harder to pump blood at a greater rate to boost circulation.
This increase in your metabolism will burn calories all while you relax, as well as long after your session ends. Regular use of an infrared sauna imparts a similar stress on the cardiovascular system as that of running.
EASE
Pain
EASE
Pain
From everyday aches to chronic pain, it takes a toll.
The deep heat that occurs during an infrared sauna session helps peripheral blood vessels dilate, bringing relief and healing to muscle and soft tissue injuries. Increased blood circulation carries off metabolic waste products and delivers oxygen-rich blood to oxygen-depleted muscle, so they recover faster.
The heat from the sauna also helps to reduce soreness on nerve endings and muscle spasms as muscle joints and fibers are heated.
ENHANCE
Immunity
The cold & flu don't discriminate. We all get sick once in a while.
We wash our hands, take our vitamins, & avoid germs the best we can, but without a healthy immune system, you are vulnerable.
​
Every Perspire infrared sauna session helps boost your immune system to keep it strong & fighting.
CLEAR
Skin
Glowing skin may be all the rage, but clear skin is always in.
The profuse sweating achieved during your 40-minute infrared sauna session carries off deeply imbedded impurities and dead skin cells. This leaves the skin glowing and immaculately clean.
Increased circulation draws your skin’s own natural nutrients to the surface. As a result, you will see improved tone, elasticity, texture and fresh color. Increased circulation has also been shown to relieve acne, eczema, psoriasis, burns, lesions and cuts.
IMPROVES
Sleep
Insomnia affects 1 in 3 people
It's hard enough to find time to get those 8 hours each night, so you don't need your body fighting sleep too.
Infrared sauna sessions have been proven to improve sleep patterns.
Not only are infrared saunas relaxing, but the chromotherapy Perspire includes in each session has sleep-inducing benefits as well. Blue, for example, is a mentally relaxing color that has a pacifying effect on the nervous system encouraging great relaxation. It is ideal for sleep problems.
