​FAR INFRARED SAUNA
​

Time options 
The sauna heats up to its maximum temperature in about 2 minutes. We recommend working up to 20- 30 min treatments in the sauna. It takes about 8 minutes to start sweating. In 15 minutes you are dripping and in 20 minutes, you have a complete sweat. For first-time users, start with 10 to 15 minutes. You can add time each session until you reach the suggested time of 20 to 30 minutes. 

1. Up to and including 15 min of actual sauna time - $20 - 25 min in the room (the online scheduler will say 30 min)
​
2. 16 - 30 min of actual sauna time - $40 - 55 min in the room (the online scheduler will say 60 min)

The Relax Sauna radiator is the most advanced of any FIR Light generator, and generates the purest, cleanest, most intense soothing light of any FIR Sauna that we have encountered. The Relax Sauna uses two radiators that produce 1500 watts of energy, and generates a very intense healing light energy. The Relax Sauna has computer-programmed ceramic semi-conductor chips that filter out all NON-healing energies, and a reflecting tent that penetrates deep into human tissues over and over and over again. Unlike a tanning bed, the Relax Sauna will NEVER burn the skin. 

What you need to know...
  • While hydration is always important, we recommend that everyone using the sauna is extra hydrated before a session. Please bring a bottle of water to continue to hydrate during and after the session concludes.​

  • You can do a 5-10 minute session with your street clothes on, and have an effective session. If you are going to sweat, then wear light cotton clothes, a swimsuit or workout attire.

  • Bring a bath/beach towel to sit on. Drape your bath/beach towel over the sauna chair. You will most likely have a profuse sweat in 15-20 minutes. All of your sweat will go on the towel. 

  • There is a foot rest for each foot. You can wear socks or shower shoes or we will provide a small towel to put in between your foot and the foot rest.

  • We will provide a 12"x 12" body wipe for you to clean up with. To add to the benefit you derive from a 20 minute sauna sweat, wait 20 minutes before you shower. Your body is in detox mode. it will continue to detox. So to maximize detoxing benefits, wait 20 minutes. 

  • The temperature inside the sauna gets to be 120-140 degrees within a few minutes. The Relax Sauna uniquely uses the silver coating of the tent to mirror the light so you can get every part of your body in front of the far infrared light. The increase in core temperature is a direct result of the energy medicine light resonating with your water cells, and increasing your core temperature. If you are too hot, simply unzip the middle zipper 1-12 inches, and you will be at a very comfortable temperature, and experience the complete benefit of being in the Relax Sauna. It's not the heat that creates benefit. It is the resonating light, which increases your core temperature, mobilizes the lymph, and increases the micro-circulation. Once you are sweating, and you get too hot, simply unzip the zipper, and you will find yourself still sweating profusely, but very comfortable.​

  • Feel free to bring a book to read or music to listen to. The time you have is the sauna room is yours to use as you wish. We have yoga mats available for you to stretch or meditate.

Medical Condition Concerns
If any of the below apply to you, consult your physician prior to sauna use:
  • Cardiovascular Issues, Obesity or Diabetes – Individuals suffering from obesity or with a medical history of heart disease, low or high blood pressure, circulatory problems or diabetes should consult a physician prior to use. Heat stress increases cardiac output and blood flow in an effort to transfer internal body heat to the outside environment via the skin (perspiration) and respiratory system. This takes place primarily due to major changes in the heart rate, which has the potential to increase by thirty (30) beats per minute for each degree increase in core body temperature.
 
  • Medications – Individuals who are using prescription drugs should seek the advice of their personal physician since some medications may induce drowsiness, while others may affect heart rate, blood pressure and circulation. Diuretics, barbiturates and beta-blockers may impair the body’s natural heat loss mechanisms. Anticholinergics such as amitryptaline may inhibit sweating and can predispose individuals to heat rash or to a lesser extent, heat stroke. Some over-the-counter drugs, such as antihistamines, may also cause the body to be more prone to heat stroke.
 
  • Alcohol & Drug Abuse – Contrary to popular belief, it is not advisable to attempt to “sweat out” a hangover. Alcohol intoxication decreases a person’s judgment; therefore, he/she may not realize when the body has a negative reaction to high heat. Alcohol also increases the heart rate, which may be further increased by heat stress. The use of alcohol, drugs or medications prior to a sauna session may lead to unconsciousness.
 
  • Elderly – The ability to maintain core body temperature decreases with age. This is primarily due to circulatory conditions and decreased sweat gland function. The body must be able to activate its natural cooling processes in order to maintain core body temperature. If elderly, operate at a lower temperature and for no more than 15 minutes at a time.
 
  • Children – The core body temperature of children rises much faster than adults. This occurs due to a higher metabolic rate per body mass, limited circulatory adaptation to increased cardiac demands and the inability to regulate body temperature by sweating. When using with a child, operate at a lower temperature and for no more than 15 minutes at a time.
 
  • Chronic Conditions / Diseases Associated With Reduced Ability To Sweat Or Perspire – Multiple Sclerosis, Central Nervous System Tumors and Diabetes with Neuropathy are conditions that are associated with impaired sweating. Consult a physician.
 
  • Hemophiliacs / Individuals Prone To Bleeding – The use of infrared saunas should be avoided by anyone who is predisposed to bleeding.
 
  • Fever & Insensitivity to Heat – Individuals with insensitivity to heat or who have a fever should not use the sauna until the fever subsides.
 
  • Pregnancy – Pregnant women should consult a physician before using an infrared sauna.
 
  • Menstruation – Heating of the low back area of women during the menstrual period may temporarily increase menstrual flow. This should not preclude sauna use.
 
  • Joint Injury – Recent (acute) joint injury should not be heated for the first 48 hours or until the swollen symptoms subside. Joints that are chronically hot and swollen may respond poorly to vigorous heating of any kind.
 
  • Implants – Metal pins, rods, artificial joints or any other surgical implants generally reflect infrared waves and thus are not heated by this system. Nevertheless, you should consult your physician prior to using.
 
  • Pacemakers / Defibrillators – The magnets used to assemble our saunas can interrupt the pacing and inhibit the output of pacemakers. Please discuss with your doctor the possible risks this may cause.

In the rare event that you experience pain or discomfort, immediately discontinue sauna use.
