Infrared saunas work by heating the body directly. The heat penetrates 4-5 cm into the skin, dilating blood vessels and stimulating circulation. 

 

The infrared heat encourages your body to sweat without the stifling feeling of a traditional steam sauna. Sweat is a natural part of your body’s detoxification system, so this can support the release of harmful substances. 

 

Infrared saunas can offer a range of benefits such as stress and fatigue reduction. The heat can naturally support the body’s immune response. It may help to support weight loss alongside a healthy diet. People with skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis and acne often report improvement in symptoms. Heat penetration into muscles and joints increases blood circulation and oxygen flow that can result in soothing relief of symptoms from injury, stiffness, inflammation and chronic pain.
