Full Spectrum Infrared Sauna: What is it all about?

Full Spectrum Sauna: Boca Woods in Boca Raton, FL.

Not all saunas are the same, and if you're already in the market of getting one, you may want to consider a sauna with the latest technologies out there. This doesn't reduce or remove the natural restorative and beneficial properties that are well known from saunas. 

What it can do is simply add an extra benefit for your future sauna.

What does infrared mean?

Infrared is actually a wavelength of light that is just barely outside our reach of natural vision. This wavelength is near the visible spectrum of the red wavelength and color. It's a type of radiation, but completely harmless to humans. It's nothing like getting an X-Ray or those harmful UV rays that we need to protect ourselves from. The dangers that come from infrared saunas have nothing to do with radiation but have to do with saunas in general. 

That means you should always ensure that you’re properly hydrated and don’t overstay in a sauna where you could overheat and have dizziness occur. The sauna itself uses light to warm up the sauna and your body instead of traditional saunas that use a heater for warmth generation.

How can infrared sauna be beneficial?

Simply put there's better penetration of the health benefits than traditional saunas offer. This means that it will help your body cleanse in several different ways. You'll feel more relaxed and be able to sleep better. It will aid the relief of joint pains or muscle tension, so always a good idea right after a rigorous workout. 

Through relaxation, it can provide some benefits of lowering down blood pressure and improving your circulation. It can also help those with chronic fatigue syndrome. Simply put it's simply more effective than just hot steam rising from stones. 

Go with a full spectrum sauna to maximize benefits

A full spectrum sauna will have the most health benefits possible, as it enables all three different types of infrared emitters. Each emitter has a different potential health benefit that works in cohesion with the other types of infrared emitters.

Near-Infrared emitters

This is all about getting the relaxation started. Near-infrared is focused on more topical level treatments. That means it'll help start the journey of relaxation with some initial mild pain relief. It's more about providing restorative properties to your skin as near-infrared can only penetrate right below the skin. It'll help promote healing and rejuvenation to that most important protective organ of yours. 

Mid Infrared emitters

The next support comes from these types of emitters that will help to expand your blood vessels and improve that much-needed circulation that will help blood flow, reduce blood pressure, and start to remove soreness. This is due to the fact that the penetration goes beyond the inner layer of the skin and starts to target the soft tissue underneath. 

Far Infrared Emitters

These are the most beneficial of the different types and help to round out a complete and holistic approach to how a sauna can help you. Combined with Mid Infrared it'll get your cardiovascular system working and actually be akin to a mild workout. These are the strongest wavelengths of the three and the deep penetration will offer the most amount of relief to muscle and joint pain. 

A full spectrum infrared sauna with its varying wavelengths is the best option to target different areas of your body through different penetration levels.

How we build our saunas

We always consider first working with your existing home aesthetic. We also like to work on building a modern and luxurious look wherever you decide to place your full spectrum infrared spa. 

We design a zen-like appearance for your sauna build and work to use natural colored woods as the overall framework for the sauna. We go with a wood paneling setup that is best for saunas and replicate the same traditional saunas you find in the heart of Europe. 

It’s not just about physical warmth but you want to be able to enter into one of our saunas and have the ambiance radiate warmth as well. 

On top of that, we add marble flooring with a drain to leave any liquid residue easy to clean. Marble is the best for when you need to quickly clean out the moisture. It's also extremely durable and will be able to withstand the heat quite well. 

We finish it off with a beautiful piece in the center when you walk in so that you feel as if you're going to the highest standard spa sauna in the world. All of this is in the comfort of your own home, without the need to go to far-off places to enjoy the numerous health benefits associated with properly using a spa sauna.

Sauna Safety Guidelines [Infographic]

Transcript of “Sauna Safety Guidelines” infographic:

READ THE INSTRUCTIONS

Most saunas will carry their own health guidelines and warnings. It is important to familiarize yourself with these prior to using the sauna.
If you don't see any instructions, ask the person in charge of caring for the sauna for more information.

BE IN GOOD HEALTH

Saunas are generally safe for most users but some people need to take extra precautions, or perhaps not even use the sauna. If you feel ill at any time during the sauna – get out straight away.

WEAR SUITABLE ATTIRE

If you are not convinced of the cleanliness of the sauna, it is a good idea to wear flip flops, or similar items on your feet. Some sauna experiences are nude - apart from your own personal feelings about that,
you might consider leaving some clothing on if you're concerned about the hygiene in a public sauna.

AVOID OUTSTAYING YOUR WELCOME

The appropriate amount of time to spend in the sauna is around 15-20 minutes at the most, and less if you feel too hot or uncomfortable. It is better to go in and out, taking cooling down breaks,
than to roast in it for too long.

STAY WELL HYDRATED

It is possible to suffer from dehydration in a sauna. This can lead to heat stroke if you do not replenish with liquids. Water and isotonic drinks are suitable,
but it is not recommended to consume alcohol before or during your use of a sauna. It is also advisable not to use a sauna if you have a hangover.

TAKING MEDICATION?

Talk with your doctor before entering a sauna while on medication, err on the side of caution. Some medications can impair your sweating and cause you to overheat very quickly. Get your doctor's all clear first.

COOL DOWN GRADUALLY

Some people like to have a warm shower before getting dressed after a sauna. It's up to how comfortable you feel but it's not a good idea to go straight from the sauna into a shock of freezing cold air outdoors.
