Do Not Use Infrared Sauna If:
If you are short on time or budget, but have area(s) that need particular focus, this massage can help get you back on track with relief and rejuvenation.
Focus work on the hands and feet can often relieve discomfort in other areas of the body, as well. Many people are amazed at how much better these extremities feel afterward. Arms and lower legs may be included. During the session, the feet are massaged, then wrapped in hot, moist towels for deep relaxation of the foot muscles. If you are on your feet a lot or work with your hands, even with a computer or with consistent use of a cell phone, this type of work is ideal for you.
First time session is at a discounted rate of $25 for up to 30 minutes or $35 for up to 45 minutes. All sessions expire one year from date of purchase.
Precautions/Contraindications for Infrared Sauna Use:
Stay hydrated the day before and after your session. You can also take water with you to drink in the sauna. Towels are provided. When you are done in the sauna, you are welcome to a cool, moist cloth infused with essential oil.
Within minutes of sitting in an infrared sauna, your body’s natural response begins. Beads of sweat appear on your skin. Your blood vessels widen and increase blood flow. Your heart rate ticks up.
Studies show that infrared saunas can help boost heart health and reduce blood pressure. Researchers equated the physical response of an infrared sauna session to walking at a moderate pace.
The improved blood circulation brought on by an infrared sauna session can help speed up muscle recovery following physical activity, says Dr. Young. Regular use may even help athletes improve performance.
Researchers found that infrared sauna therapy “may be a promising method for treatment of chronic pain.” The determination followed a two-year study where people showed improved outcomes with the treatment.
Warming your body seems to warm your soul, too. Setting aside some sauna time may help decrease depression, anxiety and stress. Basically, think of it as a meditation session in warmer temperatures.
A bonus benefit to being more relaxed? Better sleep, which has also been linked to sauna use.
There’s evidence that regular sauna use can help you avoid the common cold, says Dr. Young. Saunas also reduce oxidative stress, which is associated with cardiovascular disease, cancer and degenerative diseases like dementia.
Sauna use can provide a detoxification effect as you sweat out toxins such as cadmium and lead.
Facial Massages are helpful not only in relieving clogged pores and skin blemishes, withdrawing impurities from the skin, and increasing circulation to facial muscles, but also in preventing sagging facial muscles. The facial includes hot towels, scalp and facial massage, neck and shoulder massage, using organic cucumber cleanser, Aztec clay mask, toning, moisturizing, and misting. While the mask is drying, your hands and feet are thoroughly massaged. This therapy is completely relaxing and rejuvenating!
