Detox Your Body
Instead of heating the air around you, an infrared sauna heats your body directly by using infrared heaters and light. This means infrared saunas can heat the body more efficiently than traditional saunas, which rely on heating the air. The heat from an infrared sauna is soaked up by the skin, which raises body temperature deep inside the core and promotes a deeper level of detox than ordinary saunas can provide.
This deeper level of detoxification helps rid the body of excess toxins ranging from heavy metals, chemicals, radioactive particles. It can help relieve symptoms of common illnesses, prevent future illness, and increase overall health and vitality.
If you’re looking to use a sauna for detoxification, you’ll want to choose a sauna that is capable of full-spectrum infrared light, which includes near, mid, and far infrared technology.
There are many benefits to using a full spectrum home sauna. Each infrared technology provides different benefits and when combined together, you get the full benefits of this holistic healing method.
Here are the full-spectrum infrared light benefits:
Near Infrared:
Cell Health/Immunity
Wound Healing
Skin Purification

Mid-Infrared:

Improved Circulation
Weight Loss
Far Infrared:

What happens during an infrared sauna session
When you’re using an infrared sauna, each session should last about 15 to 20 minutes. Of course, the goal is to sweat. It will be warm and should feel relaxing.
During a session, you might notice:
Increased sweating, even heavy sweating
An increased heart rate
A feeling of mental clarity
Full body relaxation responses
You might want to sit on a towel to absorb sweat. Most people wear athletic shorts and a loose shirt or bralette. Some people like to use the sauna in the nude. That’s fine too, we just highly recommend the towel in that case!
Once you’re done, take a quick rinse and then drink a glass of water. Some people report feeling a little lightheaded. It’s always a good idea to rest for a little while afterward. It should be pretty easy since you probably feel nice and relaxed.
