All saunas have the same goal: to raise your core body temperature enough to jump-start its natural healing processes.
Traditional saunas use steam, fire, or electric heaters to make the air in the sauna hot, which eventually heats up your body from the outside in. Infrared saunas tap into the science of light to help you sweat faster and more comfortably
Unlike the traditional methods, near infrared (NIR) light works with your body’s biology to create radiant heat—from the inside out. By using near infrared’s shorter wavelengths in a way that mimics natural sunlight, the light penetrates deeply to raise your core temperature faster.
Near infrared saunas give you:
~ Ultrafast heat therapy
~ Comfortable air temperatures
~ Built-in light therapy
~ Faster sauna sessions
SaunaSpace saunas are a non-invasive way to kickstart your body’s most beneficial processes.
This happens in two ways: light therapy (phototherapy) and heat therapy (sauna).
Light therapy
Your body has special receptors for red and near infrared light. The light particles are absorbed by cells’ mitochondria, triggering helpful biological processes and signals. Research shows that this reaction reduces inflammation and stimulates blood flow, oxygenation, circulation, muscle relaxation, and the production of energy at a cellular level.
Heat therapy
The near infrared light in our saunas creates radiant heat that raises your core body temperature by three degrees. That increase in temperature makes you sweat, but it also triggers your natural detoxification response.
At Red Canoe Health we offer sauna's as a stand alone treatment or part of a more comprehensive care plan for a vairiety of health issues.
