The term “self-care” is a big buzzword in both social and mainstream media as more consumers continue to look for ways to empower their own well-being. The global wellness movement is one of the reasons that the infrared sauna industry has experienced steady, double-digit growth over the last five years. With a host of high-profile influencers including Gwyneth Paltrow, Lady Gaga and even the new American Princess, Meghan Markle raving about the anti-aging benefits, infrared sauna therapy is a trend that is here to stay.
In particular, Sunlighten infrared saunas have become a staple in upscale spas across the world. The high demand for Sunlighten infrared treatments has paved the way for an entirely new business model, the infrared sauna studio. Sauna studios are opening across the country from Hotbox in Los Angeles to Sweat House in Nashville to Recover in midtown Manhattan. Sunlighten 3-in-1 infrared provides an in-demand, unassisted, yet personalized service making the sauna studio a very profitable business model.
Recognized as an effective tool for natural healing and prevention, IR sauna therapy provides an easy, non-invasive way to relax, detox, purify the skin, relieve pain, lose weight, improve circulation, lower blood pressure, and more. Infrared is part of the sun’s invisible light spectrum that can penetrate human tissue and is necessary for all living things to grow and flourish. However, it is important to understand that not all infrared is created equally. To deliver the health benefits saunas need to emit high concentrations of infrared energy - not just heat.
Sunlighten’s technology is proven 95-99% efficient at delivering a higher dose of infrared energy into the body. In fact, their patented Solocarbon panels are the only FIR heaters clinically shown to raise the core-body temperature nearly three degrees for the most detoxifying sweat, a lower blood pressure, aid weight loss and assist with pain relief.
3-in-1 Personalized Infrared Light
The Sunlighten 3-in-1 infrared system is the only sauna that can truly offer the three parts of the infrared light spectrum in one place. It is ideal for spas and sauna studios that want to provide clients with a personalized experience. Each part of the IR light spectrum - near (NIR), mid (MIR), and far (FIR) wavelengths - affect the body differently. Because the three heating elements within the mPulse 3-in-1 sauna operate independently, you can program them to generate any combination of NIR, MIR, and FIR heat for the personalized needs of each client.
To make this extremely easy for the spa owner and client, Sunlighten has developed preset wellness programs - based of 56 research studies - the emit the optimal blend and frequency of infrared light for the desired result.
- Cardio program - 45 minutes of NIR, MIR and FIR at a high intensity to increase heart rate and promote a healthy blood pressure.
- Detoxification - 37 minutes of MIR and FIR to increase core temperature and release toxins at the cellular level.
- Pain Relief - 30 minutes of NIR, MIR and FIR at a low intensity to reduce swelling and inflammation and aid with muscle recovery.
- Relaxation - 40 minutes of NIR, MIR and FIR at a low intensity to induce deep relaxation.
- Weight Loss - 30 minutes of MIR and FIR at a high intensity to increase cardiac output and metabolic rate.
- Anti-Aging - 30 minutes of NIR and FIR at a low, constant frequency to improve overall skin tone, elasticity and firmness.
- Custom - Give you full control of each heater, allowing you to maximize infrared power, output and intensity of each session.
The Sunlighten Experience: ENJOY vs. Endure
There are infrared saunas on the market with high-wattage, red halogen bulbs that create an incredibly hot experience. This technology is neither beneficial (because it doesn’t emit the optimal infrared frequency) or enjoyable to the client. An extremely hot environment can make your clients anxious for the treatment to end. One of the many reasons why spa-goers love Sunlighten infrared treatments is because of the comfortable, gentle heat that is enjoyable for the entire session and they know they are getting the full benefits because it is proven to deliver the highest dose of infrared energy that the body can absorb.
Another layer of experience in a Sunlighten session is Acoustic Resonance Therapy (ART). ART combines vibration with sound and resonates throughout the sauna bringing the body to a deeper state of relaxation.
After a Sunlighten infrared session, your clients will leave feeling invigorated, light, energized, and wanting to come back for more.
