Infrared Sauna BenefitsVive! is pleased to offer Infrared Sauna sessions to complement your wellness program. Our one person sauna cabins from Sunlighten offer Full-spectrum infrared technology which expands the wellness benefits of other saunas which only use Far infrared. Infrared saunas increase the body’s core temperature resulting in a much deeper, more detoxifying sweat from the cellular level of the skin where many toxins are housed. Heating of muscles with infrared produces an increased blood flow level similar to that seen during exercise.

Infrared light is what makes your skin feel warm on a sunny day.

What is Infrared?Infrared light is part of the Sun’s invisible spectrum of light that has the ability to penetrate the human tissue. Infrared heat therapy uses these infrared light characteristics to heat the body directly rather than just the air. The experience of an infrared sauna is similar to sunbathing, which gives you the radiant heat that is all your own. The infrared heat penetrates your skin, giving you that wonderful natural warmth. Unlike sunbathing, infrared heat therapy is completely healthy and safe. You can be exposed to infrared heat for hours and it will never cause your skin to burn. Infrared heat is completely healthy and safe for all living things. In fact, infrared heat is so safe it is used
in hospitals to warm newborn infants. |

Sauna Facts
EMF Safety
All electrical appliances produce electro-magnetic fields. The international standard for EMF exposure for the General Public is 833mG. Sunlighten saunas are the very low end of common electrical appliances, similar to an iron or clothes dryer. The Solocarbon heaters in our Sunlighten saunas emit at about 30-50 mG on contact and decrease significantly as you move away from the surface. At 6” away, a Solocarbon heater measures around 3-6 mG. You are likely to be exposed to more EMF at work than you would be if you spent the whole day in your Sunlighten sauna.
