INFRARED SAUNA
We use the most advanced infrared technologies to power our infrared sauna's.
Our premium Sunlighten infrared sauna's use the full spectrum of infrared, include Near, middle and far infrared waves.
Infrared saunas are an effective tool for natural healing and prevention of chronic illness to enable people to live healthier lives. Why? Because infrared light has the ability to penetrate our bodies at a cellular level to produce a range of health benefits.
Benefits of Infrared
Cardiovascular health
Infrared light increases the production of nitric oxide, a vital signaling molecule that is important for the health of blood vessels.
Pain and inflammation relief
Since infrared therapy enhances and improves circulation in the skin and other parts of the body, it can bring oxygen and nutrients to injured tissues, promoting healing. It helps ease pain, relieve inflammation, and protect against oxidative stress.
Speed up healing
Infrared therapy improves the action of the mitochondria within cells, thus triggering the growth and repair of new muscles cells and tissues
Detoxification
Infrared’s deep penetrating heat is what most effectively stimulates metabolic activity, which in turn triggers the release of stored toxins through sweat, as well as through the liver and kidneys.
3 key infrared principles you should know
1. INFRA-RED QUALITY
Infrared saunas are therapeutic because of infrared quality. Infrared saunas are NOT therapeutic because of heat, power or wattage.
2. HEAT
To deliver health benefits, infrared saunas need to emit high concentrations of infrared waves that penetrate the body to work at a cellular level. Infrared heats the body directly rather than simply warming the air. Excessive heat is not recommended nor required to deliver health benefits via infrared technology
3. EMMISSIVITY
For optimal health benefits, the most important element is emissivity. High emissivity produces high infrared which is why Sunlighten™ saunas, at an emissivity rating of 95% and 99%, ensure you enjoy the optimum benefits of Infrared. Without high emissivity, you will only get a fraction of infrared versus heat. Put simply, a Sunlighten™ sauna provides superior penetration of infrared into your body ensuring you enjoy the optimum benefits of infrared.
Our services
CRYOTHERAPY
Research of experts and clinical studies show clients may experience relief from muscle pain and soreness after cryotherapy sessions. This makes cryotherapy a more effective alternative recovery method than the old applications such as ice packs or ice bath immersion. Cryotherapy sessions can relieve muscle pain, rheumatic spasm, swelling, and joint stiffness.

Sunlighten has perfected our infrared technology to bring you the safest, most efficient and effective infrared available
FLOAT THERAPY
A floatation tank is a lightless, soundless tank filled with highly concentrated Epsom salt water heated to skin temperature. Floatation, also known as sensory deprivation, is simply the act of relaxing in a floatation tank; with all sights and sounds removed, and drifting into a meditative state that rejuvenates your mind and body.
MASSAGE
Research has shown that massage can lower the body’s production of the stress hormone cortisol; decrease levels of the hormone arginine-vasopressin, which may lower blood pressure; reduce levels of some inflammatory cytokines and increase production of the mood-boosting hormone serotonin.
HOT + COLD Magnesium Spas
The key to contrast bath therapy is in the rapid changes produced in your circulatory system when you go from very warm water to very cold water. When you submerge part or all of your body in cold water, small blood vessels called capillaries respond to the cold by getting smaller. This is known as vasoconstriction. When you immerse yourself in warm water, the opposite happens. Your blood vessels open up. This is known as vasodilation.
