Benefits of Infrared Sauna
Reduced Inflammation
Anti-inflammatory proteins have been shown to increase with sauna usage and studies have shown a significant increase in anti-inflammatory proteins after four weeks of consistent sauna usage.
Increased Recovery
Infrared saunas can help improve recovery. Research has shown that people who had a single infrared sauna session post-workout showed greater recovery and less muscle soreness, which leads to being able to train more efficiently the following day
Cardiovascular Health
Saunas are a safe way to train and increase your cardiovascular fitness and health. With the increased heat of a sauna, it can raise your heart rate up to levels comparable to moderate or vigorous level of exercise.
Brain Health and Relaxation
Sauna use has been shown to increase levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor, a protein in the central and peripheral nervous systems, which has a lot of benefits, from helping with anxiety and depression, to memory functions and more.
Muscle Retention
Saunas have been shown to prevent protein degradation from lack of activity. Intermittent heat stress enhances skeletal muscle regrowth.
