Far Infrared Sauna

---

A far infrared sauna at The Salt Cave is a 45-minute treatment in our Sunlighten Sauna. It uses infrared light to create heat. “Far” describes where the infrared waves fall on the light spectrum. This type of infrared light also penetrates your tissues up to 1 inch, enhancing the benefits of the sauna. 

A traditional sauna uses heat to warm the air, which then warms your body. An infrared sauna instead uses light to create heat. An infrared sauna heats your body directly without warming the air around you to a high degree. An infrared sauna is used at much lower temperatures than a typical sauna, with temperatures ranging only at 125-140* F.

Sweat Out the Toxins: The Deep Infrared Penetration helps increase blood flow and perspiration. This can help maintain good health by eliminating toxic heavy metals, drug residues, and hormone disruptors.

Boost the Immune System: Heating the body from the inside can improve the function of the immune system, just like a slight fever can. This can help reduce the incidences of cold and flu, or even help you recover faster.

Enjoy Deep Tissue Relief: Far Infrared Therapy can increase blood flow and reduce inflammation, relieving aches and pains. This type of therapy has been shown to help with pain from fibromyalgia and autoimmune conditions, such as Sjogren’s, Behcet’s, Lupus and Rheumatoid Arthritis.

Boost Metabolism and Lose Fat: Infrared wavelengths stimulate sluggish metabolism and improve fat burning for energy. Increasing core body heat can increase calorie burn, similar to exercise. Infrared sauna therapy can also help with the elimination of toxins that cause fat storage.

Experience Bliss and Reduce Stress: Enjoy the euphoria and relaxation from the natural endorphin release from gentle radiant heat. The infrared sauna will leave you refreshed and relaxed.

Improve Heart Health: Infrared therapy can help your cardiovascular system work better by  reducing blood sugar and improving circulation. Infrared saunas have also been shown to reduce blood pressure.

Passive Cardio Workout: Elevating your core body temperature in an infrared sauna produces an increase in blood flow that mirrors the benefits of a passive cardio workout. 

Repair Muscles Faster: Many professional athletes use infrared saunas to recover faster from training and heal from injuries. Infrared light penetrates joints and improves flexibility. Increased circulation from infrared heat reduces inflammation, decreases pain, and aids in muscle recovery.
