What is infrared sauna?

Infrared sauna uses far infrared wavelengths of invisible light that produce heat and penetrate your skin and tissues. This increases your core temperature creating a sweat, while the air in the cabin remains lower and more tolerable than traditional sauna.

Infrared sauna works by: 

 

  • elevating the body’s core body temperature creating a beneficial stress that prompts cellular adaptations to enhance our strength, health, and resilience

  • triggering the release of heat shock proteins (HSP), crucial for immune regulation and the repair and clearance of damaged cells

  • enabling the release of growth hormone, which fosters muscle growth, tissue repair, improved fat metabolism, heightened exercise performance, and faster recovery from illness, injury and exercise

  • encouraging the body to generate more mitochondria, enhancing energy production, strengthening existing mitochondria, and facilitating the repair of damaged ones. 

  • stimulating the brain to produce more endorphins (commonly known as happiness hormones) and reduce cortisol (the body's primary stress hormone), helps to boost mood and reduce stress, anxiety, and depression

  • enhancing autonomic nervous system and cardiac function

  • optimising detoxification pathways involved in the elimination of heavy metals and environmental chemicals.

​​

There is a process in the body called hormesis, which is when a low dose of a stressor has a beneficial effect in the body enabling the body to adapt, get stronger and build resilience. Infrared sauna creates cellular changes that when used appropriately enable the body to adapt and become stronger over time helping you live a longer healthier life. In addition, in the short term the biological changes at a cellular level can also help to enhance mood, reduce pain, increase energy and enhance healing

​

No need to bring anything other than a spare pair of underwear.

​

We provide complimentary: 

- Essential oils of your choice in the sauna

- Towels for the sauna and shower 

- Skincare lotions

- Water and electrolytes 

​

The sauna is equipped with a Bluetooth speaker so you can listen to your favourite podcast, music or meditation track. 

​

Never consume alcohol in combination with sauna.

​

After your sauna a cold shower can help boost immune function. You may continue to sweat for around 30 minutes, so it's best to drink lots of water with electrolytes to replace the fluid loss. Avoid heavy exercise for 30 minutes afterwards, however gentle stretching is really beneficial.

Combining sauna with other treatments 

It's beneficial to combine osteopath, acupuncture or massage treatments with infrared sauna to enhance detoxification, healing and muscle relaxation.

​

Massage helps mobilise toxins and relax tissues and having a sauna afterwards helps the body to release toxins through sweat, helping you feel great!

 

Osteo and acupuncture help with injury healing and sauna complements this by increasing circulation delivering more blood flow and nutrients to the tissues to enhance healing.

 

Post exercise sauna helps increase the oxygen content of the blood and over time this increases the body's ability to carry oxygen which in turn improves athletic performance
