Infrared saunas work effectively and without causing harm to detoxify and rejuvenate our largest organ, our skin.
The gradual warming heat of the infrared sauna opens our pores and helps us sweat out toxins, creating a natural by-product of softly glowing skin. The natural sweating that occurs in an infrared sauna helps our skin purge the dirt, grime and oil that builds up as part of day-to-day life. Don’t just take our word for it, peer-reviewed research provides evidence that infrared saunas act on the whole body and are indeed beneficial for our skin (Cristiano 2019).
The gentle warming of our skin that occurs in the infrared sauna also improves circulation, and with better blood flow we see clearer, softer and smoother skin.
The impact of stress on our skin is proven (Orion & Wolf 2013) and the gentle stress relief provided by some time alone or with a loved one in an infrared sauna can contribute to healing your skin ailments. The heat produced by infrared saunas (120˚f /48˚c) compared to traditional saunas (150-170˚f/65-75˚c) means the heat is less intense and leaves you feeling energised rather than drained (Fiorella 2017). The soothing infrared sauna experience relieves stress from within to benefit your whole body.
Infrared saunas are a natural, chemical free way to give our skin a cleansing, relaxing treatment and improve blood flow within our whole body. Be in touch to see how we can support you in your infrared sauna journey towards the glowing complexion of your dreams.
