The Benefits of Daily Infrared Sauna Sessions
If you’ve ever done a Hot Detox Yoga session in the infrared sauna at SOL SPA, you know there are so many benefits you can feel immediately. But, what you may not realize is that this host of unique health benefits can all be enhanced with daily sauna use. One of the more obvious ones being to promote detoxification. Sweating is one of the body’s natural ways to eliminate toxins. Infrared saunas increase your core body temperature, inducing a deep sweat that helps flush out heavy metals, chemicals, and more. This increase in core temperature also boosts your heart rate, metabolic rate, and the number of calories burned, which can result in significant weight loss if done regularly.
Infrared saunas are also an excellent tool for pain management. The deep-penetrating heat helps to soothe aching muscles and joints by improving circulation and reducing inflammation. Many people with conditions such as arthritis, fibromyalgia, and chronic back pain find significant relief through regular infrared sauna use. The heat can also help to relax muscles and relieve tension, providing a natural and effective way to manage pain without medication.
Daily visits to SOL SPA for an infrared sauna session can also do wonders for your skin. The increased blood circulation helps to deliver more nutrients to the skin, improving its tone, texture, and elasticity. Sweating also helps to clear out pores, reducing acne and improving overall skin clarity. Over time, the heat can stimulate collagen production, which can reduce wrinkles and improve skin firmness. As a bonus, ask a Spa Consultant about which SOL SPA products are right for you to wear while inside the sauna to enhance your skincare results!
There are so many more, but the last I’ll mention is sleep. If you struggle with insomnia or poor sleep quality, an infrared sauna can help. The relaxing effects of the heat help to lower cortisol levels (the stress hormone), preparing your body for a more restful sleep. The increase in melatonin levels post-sauna session can also aid in better sleep patterns. Establishing a daily or nightly routine that includes a session in the sauna can promote deeper, more restorative sleep. And, whether you’re an early bird or a night owl, 24 hour access makes anytime possible!
By incorporating daily infrared sauna sessions at SOL SPA into your routine, you can enhance your overall well-being and enjoy a healthier, more balanced life. Whether you are looking to detox, manage pain, improve your skin, or simply unwind, daily visits to the infrared sauna at SOL SPA will be a valuable addition to your life!
