The Benefits of the Infrared Sauna

We partner with Sunlighten for your Infrared Sauna experience at LifeLabs. Their unmatched clinical research and patented technology allows us to provide you with the highest dose of infrared energy, chromotherapy with no toxic materials, all while maintaining an ultra low electromagnetic field. Chromotherapy relates to the use and absorption of visible coloured light to stimulate and rebalance the seven energy centres of the body.

Infrared saunas utilise both near and far infrared light to promote relaxation and wellness. Near infrared penetrates the skin’s surface, enhancing circulation and promoting muscle recovery, while far infrared provides deeper heat that helps detoxify the body and relieve joint pain. Together, they provide a full body, holistic reset in the form of a detoxifying and comfortable sweat session which improves mood, stimulates collagen production, boosts metabolism, combats pain and inflammation, supports immune function and promotes overall well-being.

Breaking Down the Benefits of the Infrared Sauna

  • Infrared Saunas have a similar effect on your body to a cardio workout by reducing blood pressure and promoting circulation to support overall cardiovascular health. Studies have also found this therapy to have significant benefits on lung health as it helps reduce inflammation in lung tissue and increase lung capacity.
  • Sweating is a safe and natural way to heal, allowing you to maintain good health by eliminating toxic heavy metals, drug residues, and hormone disruptors. With the deepest penetration, Sunlighten Infrared Light helps induce sweating and promote detoxification.
  • As your body cools off after a session in an infrared sauna, it sends signals (in the form of more melatonin) to your brain that it is ready to sleep, fostering healthy sleeping patterns. The combination of heat and a calming environment can also stimulate the release of endorphins, improving mood and relieving stress or anxiety.
  • Infrared Saunas help deliver more oxygen to your cells for faster muscle repair and pain relief. Many professional athletes use Sunlighten Infrared Saunas to recover from their training or injuries.
  • By increasing core body heat and inducing sweating you can burn more calories and increase your metabolism.
  • Using far infrared waves to increase circulation and detoxify the skin, our Infrared Sauna helps to regenerate and cleanse your cells unlocking a rejuvenated and revitalised appearance.

    • Hydrate: Drink plenty of water before and after your session to stay hydrated and promote detoxification.
    • Shower: A quick shower before your session can help open your pores and make sweating more effective.
    • Wear appropriate clothing: Light, comfortable clothing or a towel is best. Avoid heavy lotions or oils on your skin during the session.
    • Avoid alcohol: To prevent dehydration and enhance the benefits of the sauna, avoid drinking alcohol before or after your session.
  • Pregnant women should avoid using infrared saunas unless cleared by their healthcare provider. The heat may raise core body temperature, which can pose risks during pregnancy, particularly in the first trimester. Always consult with a healthcare professional before using an infrared sauna if you are pregnant or have any underlying health conditions.
    1. Preparation: Hydrate well, shower to open pores, and wear comfortable clothing (e.g., a towel or light attire).
    2. Entering the Sauna: Choose a comfortable position on the bench or seat, and adjust the sauna’s temperature (typically between 120°F to 150°F).
    3. Relax and Sweat: As the infrared heat penetrates deep into your muscles, you’ll begin to sweat, aiding in detoxification, muscle relaxation, and stress reduction.
    4. Monitor Comfort: Take breaks if needed, drink water to stay hydrated, and stay within a 20-45 minute session length, depending on your comfort level.
    5. Post-Session: Cool down, rehydrate, and optionally take a shower to cleanse your skin of sweat and toxins for a refreshed feeling.
  • The frequency of infrared sauna sessions depends on your goals and health needs. Most people find that 2-3 sessions per week are ideal for maintaining wellness, while athletes or those using the sauna for detoxification may benefit from 4-5 sessions per week. If you are new to infrared saunas, it’s a good idea to start with shorter sessions (15-20 minutes) and gradually increase the duration as your body gets accustomed to the heat.
  • Yes, the Infrared Sauna is available to use once per week within Standard Memberships and open to unlimited use for those with a Platinum Membership.
