6. Why should I use a Sauna?

Every day we are exposed to many chemicals, from those in the air, things we touch or apply to our skin, from different thing we eat and drink, what we apply to our skin, and what we eat and drink. Some of these chemicals that we are exposed to are even poisonous to the point of damaging critical parts (such as liver enzymes) that are supposed to detoxify our bodies. By utilizing and implementing an infrared sauna session into your weekly routine, you can help your body rid itself of all toxins by sweating and releasing more toxins safely and in a short amount of time.

7. What is Infrared Heat?

Infrared light is part of the Sun’s invisible spectrum of light that has the ability to penetrate human tissue. This is not to be confused with UV rays which are harmful to the skin. Infrared heat therapy uses infrared light to heat the body directly rather than just the air around you. The experience of an infrared sauna is similar to sunbathing, Infrared heat will penetrate your skin and is directly absorbed by only your body. Unlike sunbathing, infrared heat therapy is completely healthy and safe. An infrared sauna will never cause your skin to burn.

12. How many calories can I burn?

Far Infrared Saunas are a healthy weight loss solution without exercising. Infrared Saunas burn 400-600 calories in just one 30-minute session. In a Far Infrared Sauna, a moderately fit person can sweat one pound of sweat in a 30-minute session; the equivalent of running 2-3 miles. Infrared saunas have been proven to aid in weight loss by heating your core temperature to induce sweating. Increases in blood flow and heart rate are a result, which, much like moderate exercise, has shown to help you lose weight

13. What is the difference in a traditional Steam sauna and Infrared sauna?

A traditional sauna uses wet or dry heat to warm the air around you, which induces sweating. This can aid in weight loss, but it has shown that the weight loss is mainly due to loss of water – or heavy sweating. An infrared sauna heats your body from the inside out, which allows you to stay in the sauna longer and increases your heart rate. Infrared sauna use results in more calories burned in a shorter period of time. Furthermore, Solocarbon infrared heat allows for most of the far infrared wavelength to be near 9.4 microns, which is the level at which the human body absorbs infrared energy.  This is also the frequency at which a water molecule resonates or vibrates. This vibration causes a release of cellular toxins.  This optimal micron output also allows for deeper penetration of far infrared heat, which improves weight loss efforts.

13. How often can I use the sauna?

Every Body is different! We recommend 1-3 sessions per week for only 30-45 mins max per day.

It could take up to an hour. This is normal and is part of your body returning to its regular body temperature (one plus is you are still burning calories after you sweat while this cool down is taking place).

15. Why are there spider looking lines all over my legs?

The heat penetrates deeply causing blood vessels and capillaries to dilate for better circulation. This red pattern is you being able to physically see this process. It will go away on its own within a few hours.
