Not All Infrared Saunas Are Created Equal
We offer two different infrared saunas in our Honolulu Location. Our original infrared sauna focuses on far infrared light energy to heat, detox and heal you. Our newest infrared sauna offers red light and the the entire spectrum of infrared light/energy; near, mid and far infrared. Your body has special receptors for red and near infrared light. The light particles are absorbed by cells’ mitochondria, triggering helpful biological processes and signals. Research shows that this reaction reduces inflammation and stimulates blood flow, oxygenation, circulation, muscle relaxation, and the production of energy and antioxidants at a cellular level.
An infrared sauna feels much like a regular dry sauna but has one stark difference, the use of infrared light. Aside from being more comfortable than traditional saunas full spectrum infrared light penetrates deep into tissue resulting in a wide range of benefits outlined below.
Benefits of Infrared Saunas
Detoxification
Sweating is the body’s safe and natural way to heal & stay healthy. Far infrared sauna benefits the body by heating it directly causing a rise in core temperature resulting in a deep, detoxifying sweat at the cellular level, where toxins reside.
Anti-Aging & Skin Purification
The near infrared wavelength (sometimes referred to as Red Light Therapy) is the most effective wavelength for healing the epidermis and dermis layers of the skin. Near infrared treatments stimulate collagen production to reduce wrinkles and improve overall skin tone.
Pain Relief
Infrared heat penetrates tissue, joints, and muscles to relieve anything from minor aches and pains to chronic pain conditions such as fibromyalgia. Pain management professionals incorporate infrared heat therapy into treatment plans to decrease pain and muscle spasms and to speed up recovery time.
Relaxation
Unlike traditional saunas which operate at extremely harsh temperatures, infrared is a gentle, soothing and therapeutic heat that promotes relaxation and improved sleep. Infrared sauna benefits include therapy that helps you relax while receiving an invigorating deep tissue sweat, leaving you fully refreshed after each session.
Cell Health
Near infrared therapy stimulates the circulatory system and more fully oxygenate the body’s cells. Better blood circulation means more toxins flow from the cellular level to the skin’s surface to improve cell health, aid in muscle recovery and strengthen the immune system.
Improved Circulation
Heating the muscles with infrared rays produces an increase in blood flow similar to that seen during exercise. Regular infrared sauna use—especially in the mid infrared range—can significantly stimulate blood flow up to twice the normal rate.
Lower Blood Pressure
Infrared saunas induce a deep sweat to make the heart pump faster, which in turn increases blood flow, lowers blood pressure and helps circulation. Scientific evidence shows the infrared sauna benefits using an infrared sauna a couple times a week lowers blood pressure.
Weight Loss
Studies have shown that benefits of an infrared sauna session can burn upwards of 600 calories while you relax! As the body works to cool itself, there is a substantial increase in heart rate, cardiac output and metabolic rate, causing the body to burn more calories.
Wound Healing
Scientific research has concluded that near infrared therapy greatly enhances the skin’s healing process by promoting faster cell regeneration and human tissue growth. Human cell growth increases to repair wounds and prevent infection.
NOW OFFERING FULL SPECTRUM INFRARED THERAPY!
Full Spectrum Infrared Sauna
We now offer Full Spectrum Light Therapy Sauna treatments in our Honolulu location. This sauna by SaunaSpace provides red light and near, mid and far infrared light. Unlike the traditional methods, our sauna’s near infrared (NIR) light works with your body’s biology to create radiant heat—from the inside out. By using near infrared’s shorter wavelengths in a way that mimics natural sunlight, the light penetrates deeply to raise your core temperature faster.
Our Full Spectrum Infrared Sauna gives you:
Faster sauna sessions
Ultrafast heat therapy
Comfortable air temperatures
Built-in light therapy
What Makes Our Spectrum Superhuman?
The lights in our Full Spectrum Sauna have a very similar light distribution to sunlight—peaking in the optimal therapeutic wavelengths of red and near infrared light, then trailing gently into mid and far infrared. The major difference is that we’ve taken out harmful UV and blue light for your health and safety.
Our focus on near infrared isn’t just natural, it’s more comfortable. Because they heat you directly, our lights don’t need to make the air in your sauna as hot. You’ll get all the benefits of heat and light therapy, but without feeling the stifling heat of traditional saunas.
Please note that an infrared sauna is not the same as Red Light Therapy. Red light alone will not heat you. That is why we off a Full Spectrum Infrared Sauna that includes red light. If you are looking for stand-alone Red Light Therapy in Honolulu, we recommend Body Fix.
