How Do Infrared Saunas Work?

Infrared sauna’s and why to use them:

Deep core warmth is activated at a cellular level to induce sweating, skin rejuvenation, detoxification, muscular recovery and reduce inflammation.

Using naturally occurring infrared rays, it detoxifies the body of accumulated toxins and heavy metals. Improves skin tone and helps to treat cellulite whilst deeply relaxing mind and body.

Why should I recommend Infrared Sauna’s?
The benefits of infrared sauna treatment extend far beyond just physical. Infrared sauna experiences focus on healing the mind, body and spirit. Our saunas channel infrared sauna technology to penetrate muscles, skin, joints and tissues to deliver benefits to the mind and body. The benefits of infrared sauna treatment extend far beyond just physical. Infrared sauna experiences focus on healing the mind, body and spirit. Without further ado, let’s outline the primary infrared sauna benefits experienced when at ROAR Active”

  • Body Detoxification
    Did you know that most humans consume toxic materials daily? From pesticides on our fresh produce to hormones in our meat and even heavy metals within our environments, we’re often unaware of the toxins our body holds. One of the most significant infrared sauna benefits is that the session aids the body in releasing built-up toxins in the body through sweat.
  • Weight Loss
    Simply sitting in an infrared sauna kick starts the metabolism and burns calories as the body pumps blood at an increased rate. The increase in blood flow mobilises and burns fat, leading to weight loss over time. One of the infrared sauna benefits that are not as widely recognised is the reduction in the appearance of cellulite. Bonus!
  • Heart Health
    Countless studies indicate a direct correlation between infrared sauna use and maintaining healthy blood pressure levels. There is also evidence to suggest that infrared saunas include a reduction in the symptoms of chronic heart failure in patients with cardiovascular disease.
  • Increased Blood Circulation
    A key infrared sauna benefit is an increase in blood circulation. Increasing blood circulation means that the lungs, heart and muscles function more efficiently by transporting white blood cells around the body as the body needs them. Ultimately, increased blood circulation helps to fight off disease and illness.
  • Sore Muscle or Injury Relief
    The heat penetration in infrared sauna treatments encourages muscle dilation, bringing relief and healing to muscles and injuries. One of the benefits of infrared sauna treatments is that it aids muscle recovery by bringing increased oxygen to recovering muscles and decreases the prevalence of toxins such as lactic acid.
  • Boosts Immunity
    Infrared sauna benefits immunity, too. Infrared saunas stimulate healthier cell production and help build a strong immune system by raising the core body temperature. Under the infrared sauna temperature environment, the body mistakes the temperature as fever and accelerates the immune response (which boosts immunity).
  • Joint Pain and Inflammation Reduction
    When blood vessels relax and dilate in the sauna, blood flow increases. The increase in blood flow reduces tension in muscles and joints, leading to an improvement in mobility and reduction in joint pain.
  • Anti-Ageing
    One of our clients’ most attractive infrared sauna benefits is the anti-aging effects of treatment. Flushing out toxins through sweat helps to improve the tone, elasticity and firmness of the skin, leaving clients with a springy texture and youthful glow.
  • Improves Daytime Energy
    Infrared saunas help the body transition into a parasympathetic state, which encourages healing and restoration. The transition into a restorative parasympathetic state increases feel-good hormones like endorphins. It elevates the mind to a more relaxed state, leaving the individual feeling comfortable and re-energised for the day ahead.
  • Clearer and Brighter Complexion
    The sweat from infrared sauna treatments removes deeply embedded impurities, cleansing toxins’ pores, and expels dead skin cells. A reduction in impurities, toxins, and dead skin cells will improve the skin’s tone, texture, colour, and elasticity.
