Our Infrared Sauna is not only a more comfortable alternative to traditional saunas and steam rooms, it has additional health and wellbeing benefits too. For people who find the heat in a traditional sauna too intense an infrared sauna is a great alternative as the heating effect is much more gentle and you get to sit in the sauna, along with your own choice of music. All round, a session in our infrared sauna is a deeply relaxing experience which improves blood flow, eases pain and has a wide range of health benefits.

How Infrared Saunas Work

Our Infrared Sauna is not only a more comfortable alternative to traditional saunas and steam rooms, it has additional health and wellbeing benefits too.  For people who find the heat in a traditional sauna too intense an infrared sauna is a great alternative as the heating effect is much more gentle and you get to sit in the sauna, along with your own choice of music. All round, a session in our infrared sauna is a deeply relaxing experience which improves blood flow, eases pain and has a wide range of health benefits.

​

We have a state of the art 2 person Clearlight Full Spectrum Infrared Sauna; this sauna has three types of infrared waves in one sauna:

 

• NEAR-infrared spectrum

• MID-infrared spectrum

• FAR-infrared spectrum

​

The near-infrared (NIR) spectrum is delivered at the ideal wavelength of 880nm without extreme heat or light, stimulates your mitochondria (energy producers of the cell) to promote immune cell growth and activity. It also helps reduce inflammation and pain and speeds healing.

 

The mid-infrared (MIR) spectrum is a longer wavelength that penetrates deep into your tissues, helping the body to heal from within. The MIR spectrum increases circulation, speeds healing and supports deep, restorative sleep.

 

The far-infrared (FIR) spectrum is the longest wavelength, so it is deeply healing as it penetrates far into the body where toxins are stored. It raises your core body temperature and helps the body counteract stress.

 

In addition to this, our Sauna has the following additions to support your health and wellbeing.

​

Medical Grade Chromotherapy
Chromotherapy is the science of using wavelengths of colour light to affect your body and mind for improved health and happiness. The Clearlight Sanctuary Sauna we have includes Medical Grade Chromotherapy lighting with 96 LED Lights which can help with SAD among other conditions.

 

Vibration Response Therapy

We are one of only two places in the country to have Vibration Response Therapy installed in an infrared sauna. VRT combines the benefits of sound and vibration to provide an even deeper sense of relaxation. Attached below the sauna bench, Clearlight's exclusive VRT system amplifies sound and creates gentle vibrations that resonate throughout the body to activate a natural relaxation response.
