Infrared Sauna
The sauna environment is a great environment to deliver infrared as you are not wearing any clothing and you are surrounded by infrared heat.
Infrared saunas use advanced therapy to promote heat generation in the body, with only a small percentage of the heat heating the air. This results in a deeper sweat and a lower ambient air temperature. In fact, infrared saunas usually operate between 115°–135°F
With contemporary design and groundbreaking innovation, our Clearlight Sanctuary Sauna is unlike any other. With true Full Spectrum infrared offering advanced near, mid, and far infrared technologies, the “True Wave” Full Spectrum heating system provides all wavelengths 100% of the time to optimize your sauna session.
Infrared Wavelengths
The sun produces a combination of visible and invisible light, and one of those invisible spectrums is infrared rays. Invisible infrared wavelengths are what makes the sun feel warm (and ultraviolet wavelengths are what makes it bright). Scientists have established that infrared waves are beneficial to the human body as they increase the thermal energy in the body. Infrared does this without any of the harmful rays of sunlight.
There are three main categories of the infrared spectrum: near infrared, mid-infrared, and far infrared.
Near Infrared is the shortest wavelength but penetrates the deepest. It has the distinct property that it is not captured by the water of the body, allowing it to penetrate the deepest to increase your core thermal energy. Near-infrared is associated with photobiomodulation, which directly produces energy within the cells through ATP stimulation.
Mid-infrared wavelengths are also captured by water molecules while temporarily increasing circulation through vasodilation, promoting a temporary increase in blood flow and temporarily elevating heart rate and overall metabolism.
Far infrared is the closest of the wavelengths to the infrared heat given off by our own body. Far infrared is readily captured by the water molecules in the body and releasing their energy. Our bodies actually give off far infrared wavelengths at about 9.4 microns. Since far infrared wavelengths feel very natural and normal to us, our energy is temporarily enhanced and strengthened.
