Must-Have Features You Should Have in an Infrared Sauna

Relaxing and revitalizing the body doesn’t have to be complicated or time-consuming. With an infrared sauna, you can reap benefits such as improved cardiovascular health, weight regulation, relief from pain and stress relief – all without exiting your own home! Even better, you can equip your sauna with health and wellness tools that can bring your Clearlight® infrared sauna wellness sanctuary to the next level, adding additional physical, mental, and emotional health benefits for a well-rounded experience.

Read on to take a look at the must-have features and add-ons you can enjoy for an ideal infrared sauna experience. From chromotherapy light to halotherapy generators designed specifically for your space and needs – planning ahead makes a world of difference when it comes to improving your wellness routine.

 

Chromotherapy Lights

 

Experience the ultimate relaxation during your infrared sauna session with chromotherapy lights. Color light therapy relies on the premise that each color is associated with a different bodily response. For example, red is typically associated with stimulation, while blue is considered a mentally relaxing color. As the colors shift, you’ll be transported to a peaceful state of mind, allowing your body to release any built-up tension and stress. 

Color light therapy has been reported to temporarily reduce swelling, relieve pain, decrease inflammation, increase range of motion, and improve circulation. Using chromotherapy in your infrared sauna can help provide both physical, emotional, and mental benefits, providing a unique and effective way to help improve your overall well being with regular use.

 

Red Light Therapy

 

Red light therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses red light to penetrate the skin and stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, which are essential proteins that keep our skin looking youthful and healthy. When combined with the benefits of an infrared sauna, such as detoxification and improved circulation, red light therapy can truly take your self-care routine to the next level.

Red light therapy works by using red low-level wavelengths of light to produce a biochemical effect in cells by penetrating approximately 5 millimeters below the skin’s surface. This effect helps strengthen the mitochondria and increase cell energy to improve performance of cells. Enhanced cell performance helps reduce pain, increase, speed up the wound healing process, reduce inflammation, and provide numerous anti-aging benefits.

 

 

Halotherapy Generator

 

Have you ever heard of a halotherapy generator? This innovative device creates a dry aerosol of concentrated salt, which is used to relieve sinus congestion, boost the immune system, and reduce inflammation. When combined with an infrared sauna, this salt therapy becomes even more powerful. As you inhale the salt particles, they penetrate deep into your lungs and respiratory system, providing relief that you can feel.

With regular use, you can expect to experience improved breathing and a stronger immune system, as well as reduced inflammation and healthier skin, as salt therapy can help relieve symptoms of acne, rosacea, and eczema.  The HALO ONE™ salt therapy generator is a halotherapy device that allows you to create your very own salt cave anywhere in your home, including your infrared sauna where you can feel health benefits both inside and out.

 

Aromatherapy Diffuser

 

Spending time in an infrared sauna is relaxing on its own, but you can enhance the experience even further by incorporating essential oils. It is important to note that essential oils are very strong and should be diluted or used with a carrier oil to avoid too much exposure. Ten of the best essential oils for sauna aromatherapy include birch, cinnamon, citrus, eucalyptus, frankincense, lavender, peppermint, pine, sandalwood, and tea tree oils.

Depending on your desired results, try mixing different essential oil combinations. You can customize your scent to match your desired mood and wellness benefits. Lavender for relaxation, peppermint for energy, eucalyptus for sinus relief- the possibilities are endless. A Clearlight infrared sauna paired with the AROMA ONE® aromatherapy diffuser is the perfect way to unwind after a long day or to simply treat yourself to a spa-like experience.

 

 

Vibration Resonance Therapy

 

Including this additional therapy in your infrared sauna session combines the healing effects of sound and vibration to soothe all systems of the body to bring you to a deeper state of relaxation. In your sauna, vibration resonance therapy (VRT) modules attach to the bottom of the sauna bench and use an amplified audio signal to resonate sound waves to the surface of the sauna.

Clearlight Saunas® use VRT to allow the sounds and vibrations resonate throughout the body and stimulate the body’s natural relaxation response. Including vibration resonance therapy in your home sauna sessions enhances the rejuvenating properties of infrared therapy. The infrared heat can penetrate deep into the muscles and tissues, while the vibration frequencies can naturally stimulate blood flow and promote relaxation.

 

Carbon & Ceramic Far Infrared Heater

 

For those who enjoy a good sweat session, an infrared sauna is an experience like no other. To enjoy your sauna experience to the fullest, having the best technology in your infrared heater matters. The True Wave™ Far Infrared Heaters combine carbon and ceramic to produce healing infrared heat that is unmatched. This allows for a more effective and efficient heating method, resulting in a more enjoyable sauna experience.

The carbon and ceramic heaters emit long wave, far infrared rays that penetrate deeper into the skin than traditional heaters, making the heat more readily absorbed by the body and providing a more intense and therapeutic session. Plus, the low EMF (electromagnetic field) output means that the sauna is safer and healthier for regular use. The ceramic gives a very high infrared output to concentrate the heat directly onto your body.

 

After a long day, there is no better way to relax than in your infrared sauna. Purchasing an infrared sauna with the right features can take those relaxation moments even one step further. By having advanced infrared heaters, chromotherapy, halotherapy, red light therapy, aromatherapy, and vibration resonance therapy in your Clearlight infrared sauna, you will be able to experience the physical, mental, and emotional benefits of combining these therapies with your infrared sauna. For all of these reasons and more – make sure to add these features to your Clearlight infrared sauna for your ultimate wellness sanctuary at home!
