Infrared Sauna
Clearlight Full Spectrum Infrared Sauna
Our Sauna Sessions are completely safe. They produce the same far infrared heat produced by the sun. Sunlight is a combination of visible and invisible light. The seven colors of the rainbow are visible lights, and infrared rays and ultraviolet rays are invisible lights. It is the far infrared energy that is most beneficial, penetrating the skin and increasing circulation to help rid the body of harmful toxins.
Full Spectrum Infrared Heaters
The Clearlight Sanctuary Sauna is a True Full Spectrum infrared sauna, offering advanced near (NIR), mid (MIR) and far (FAR) infrared technologies. Our sauna utilizes high powered, 500 watt halogen full spectrum heaters. Our True Wave Full Spectrum heating system provides all three wavelengths 100% of the time to optimize your sauna session. Our Full Spectrum infrared heaters emit about 1/3 near, 1/3 mid and 1/3 far infrared. By offering all three wavelengths the infrared heat will penetrate deeper, past the Epidermis and Dermis into the Subcutaneous layer, offering maximum effectiveness.
The Many Benefits of Infrared Sauna Sessions
Detoxification, Relaxation, Weight-loss, Pain Relief, Strengthening of the Immune System and Skin Cell Rejuvenation
NIR promotes skin renewal, cell health, wound healing, and tissue growth. MIR helps expand blood vessels and increases circulation, so more oxygen can reach injured areas of the body. This reduces pain and speeds the healing process. FIR stimulates the sweat glands, resulting in a deep, detoxifying sweat that helps with recovery from fatigue and leaves you feeling revitalized. Plus, since sweating increases heart rate, cardiac output, and metabolic rate, you’re also burning calories.
Far infrared rays have a wavelength of 8-14 microns. Far Infrared heat is needed for optimum health, by all living things. As soon as you take a seat in our IR sauna, the radiant heat surrounds you, and FAR infrared waves begin to penetrate 2 to 3 inches into your body. These waves create a deep heating action, that penetrates into your joints, muscles and tissues.
IR waves also activate the sweat glands. Their primary function is to naturally eliminate and expel waste materials and toxins. Since skin is the largest organ in the human body, the deep heating of the sweat glands allow for a deep detoxifying sweat. The human body is comprised of 70% water molecules. FAR infrared waves cause these molecules to vibrate. This vibration reduces ionic bonds and breaks down the water molecules. These molecules often encapsulate gases and other toxic materials. Using our IR sauna helps to remove these impurities from your cells, specifically the cells inside your fat where your body stores waste and harmful toxins such as cholesterol and heavy metals.
In our Full Spectrum IR Sauna, the average person sweats out approximately 20% toxins and 80% water, whereas in a conventional sauna, the average person sweats out only about 3% toxins and 97% water. This is a significant difference.
How To Achieve Maximum Sweat
The temperature inside an infrared sauna is adjustable and averages a comfortable 100 °F to 149 °F. For maximum detoxification benefits our Clearlight Infrared Sauna is best used at temperatures between 100 °F to 125 °F. This allows a person to sweat faster and to tolerate a longer period of time inside the sauna, allowing for the therapeutic effects to occur. Typical sessions last 30 minutes and can be repeated once or twice during the day to maximize the benefits. Infrared saunas leave you feeling invigorated, not depleted like conventional saunas which have temperatures that range from 180 °F to 220 °F.
Benefits of Chromotherapy
Chromotherapy is a method of treatment that uses the visible spectrum (colors) of electromagnetic light to cure diseases. It works on various energy points to help balance your body. It is a centuries-old concept that possibly has roots in Ayurveda, ancient Egyptian culture and traditional Chinese healing. Chromotherapy benefits are always a part of your IR Sauna session at no additional charge. The color chart below explains the health benefits associated with each color.
