What is an infrared sauna?
An infrared sauna uses light (infrared waves) to heat your body, not just the air around you. This light is much like the suns rays on a warm day but is invisible to the human eye.
Why should we sweat?
Our bodies were designed to sweat. Sweating is our natural detox process. Our bodies are overwhelmed with toxins from products we use, foods we eat and even where we live and work. Spending time in an infrared sauna can give our bodies the help it needs to rid toxins from our bodies, strengthen our immune systems and have a better nights sleep.
How long is my session?
Sauna sessions range from 10-30 minutes. We will discuss that with you your first session.
Foot detox takes 30 minutes once we start. The infrared blanket can go as long as 40 minutes. Your sauna session can go as long as 30 minutes. For each service, you will have a room that will be yours before, during and after your session.
What is a recovery room?
After increasing our core body temperature we want to slowly let it come back down. Feel
free to relax in our recovery room. We have water or tea for you to enjoy.
How long will the effects of a sauna last?
With any of our services, your body will continue to detox for another 24 hours. After your cool down, you might feel more energy and be refreshed. You should sleep much better that night and for several nights after.
How often should I use an infrared Sauna?
How you feel is very individualized. So are the number of times you use a sauna.
Depending on your health history and your reasons for your sauna sessions. Some people can tolerate and benefit from 3-4 times per week. Others may feel great with two sessions a week. If you are looking to detox, you might want to try 3 times a week for 2-4 weeks and then drop down to once per week. Pay attention to how your body feels before and after your sessions.
Foot detox
Foot detox is recommended every 3 days for 12-14 times for a full detox. Then 2-4 times a month after that. Again, it depends on each person's health history. Please come 15 minutes early for your first session to fill out a consent form, information about you and to get instructions.
