"Enjoy your own peaceful sauna sanctuary with clinically-backed health programs!"

 Sunlighten’s highly efficient, patented SoloCarbon® infrared heating technology gives you the best detoxification experience because it is clinically proven to raise core body temperature by three degrees. 

You experience a deep, productive sweat from your cells as the infrared waves penetrate your skin and heat your core to expel the toxins, rather than just sitting in hot, ambient air that only heats your outer skin. This creates an enjoyable experience of more productive sweat, rather than an uncomfortable, stifling hot and less-productive sweat.  

 Release toxins and reduce inflammation. Studies have shown that sauna therapy can release environmental toxins stored in fat tissues. 

Heavy metals and fat-soluble chemicals like PCBs, PBBs and HCBs can trigger the body to protect itself, resulting in the immune system’s inflammatory response. 

Inflammation typically causes pain signals in the body. Infrared sauna therapy heats the body at the cellular level, helping to detoxify the body and reduce inflammation.  

 Rejuvenate and purify your skin. Really! It sounds too good to be true, but science supports it. Photobiomodulation uses invisible, near infrared (NIR) wavelengths (700 to 1,200 nanometers (nm)) to deliver energy to cells. Research shows specific light frequencies have specific activity. NIR has the perfect wavelength (880 nm) to penetrate skin best. When NIR is applied to the skin, fibroblast cells absorb the light activity, stimulating production of collagen and elastin. Over time, those increases create thicker, younger looking skin, decrease lines, fade scars, and promote skin renewal, cell health and tissue growth.  

 Infrared sauna therapy promotes relaxation by helping to balance your body’s level of cortisol, your body’s primary stress hormone. 

The heat generated by the sauna will also help to relax muscles and relieve tension throughout the body, allowing you to relax and de-stress. + You can always add your own meditation in this space, use sound therapy or our colour therapy as extra benefits.  

 Saunaing: the habit you’ll enjoy creating. The most current research shows behavior change techniques are now critical to weight management programs. Sunlighten saunas are beautiful, enjoyable experiences using infrared light to heat your body from the inside instead of heating the air. Infrared saunas can do more for the body’s health in a more pleasant environment, than the harsh suffocating heat of traditional saunas. The infrared light therapy does its work at the cellular level to expel toxins, increase circulation, spark metabolism, burn calories and help decrease waist size. 

 Infrared sauna sessions raise your heart rate and increase circulation. This replicates a cardiovascular workout we term “passive cardio.” In fact, blood flow during infrared sauna use may rise from a normal rate of 5 litres/minute to up to 12 litres/minute. Your heart is a muscle; working it makes it stronger. A stronger cardiovascular system helps capillaries deliver more oxygen to muscle cells. For people with injuries or conditions precluding them from cardio activity, our sauna can help serve as an alternative for needed cardio benefits.
