Why Infrared?
Unlike traditional saunas which heat the external space around you, the heat from an Infrared Sauna surrounds and penetrates deeply into your joints, muscles and tissues.

 

This helps push out sweat and toxins deep within your body, as well as increasing your oxygen flow and circulation. Breathing is also a lot easier and healthier because the air temperature is not heated to the same degree as other types of saunas.

 

As a result, our Infrared Sauna provides a more comfortable experience and relieves a wider range of health concerns compared with a traditional sauna. There is a large amount of scientific research which demonstrates the positive effect infrared saunas can have on your wellbeing.
