Benefits
Our clients have experienced amazing sessions in our Sauna. In a private setting with carafe of water and tea, you can listen to your favorite music brought in or our selection of CDs and read a magazine or book. You can also turn off the light, close your eyes and experience deep heat and relaxation. This is a very subtle relaxing and cleansing sauna. You’ll experience benefits on a physical and physiological level the very first try.
Weight Loss & Control
As you relax in the gentle heat of the sauna, your body is actually hard at work, producing sweat, pumping blood – and burning calories. According to a Journal of the American Medical Association report, in a single sauna session you may burn as many calories as you would rowing or jogging for 30 minutes. So you lose weight – not just water.
While this weight loss can be regained by re-hydration with water, the calories consumed will not. This is a valuable system for those who don’t exercise and those who can not exercise, yet want an effective weight control and fitness program, along with the benefits that regular exercise bring.
Muscle & Joint Pain
The deep heat of the sauna helps peripheral blood vessels dilate, bringing relief and healing to muscle and soft tissue injuries. Increased blood circulation carries off metabolic waste products and delivers oxygen-rich blood to oxygen-depleted muscle, so they recover faster. Muscles relax most readily when tissues are warm, for greater flexibility and range of motion. In Europe, radiant heat therapy is widely used to treat patients suffering from many forms of arthritis. In addition, it has been proved effective in the treatment of (non acute) sprains, neuralgia, bursitis, muscle spasms, joint stiffness and many other muscular-skeletal ailments. Stiffness with aging is reduced or eliminated.
Toxins & Mineral Waste
Increased blood circulation stimulates the sweat glands, releasing built-up toxins and waste. Daily sweating can help detoxify your body as it rids itself of an accumulation of potentially carcinogenic heavy metals (lead, mercury, zinc, nickel, cadmium) as well as alcohol, nicotine, sodium, sulfuric acid and cholesterol.
Stress & Fatigue
Perhaps the most immediate relief the sauna offers is simple relaxation, as it melts away the stresses and tensions of urban life. Just a few minutes in the gentle warmth of your sauna gives you an overall massaging effect, soothing jangled nerves and knotted muscles. You’ll feel rejuvenated and renewed, restored in both body and mind.
Blood Circulation & Cardiac Health
As your body increases sweat production to cool itself, your heart works harder pumping blood at a greater rate to boost circulation, supplying the conditioning benefits of continuous exercise. Heart rate, cardiac output and metabolic rate increase, while diastolic blood pressure drops, for improved overall cardiovascular fitness.
