Infrared Saunas: Lower Ambient Temps, More Effective

Dec 31st

We often have customers wonder how infrared saunas – at lower temperatures than traditional saunas – can be so effective. The answer has everything to do with the fact that infrared light heats the body and NOT the ambient air.

Infrared light (experienced as heat) is the invisible part of the sun’s spectrum with the ability to penetrate human tissue. Infrared sauna therapy uses this penetrating characteristic to heat the body directly at the core rather than simply warming the air or skin’s surface.

The Sunlighten infrared sauna experience is very similar to lying in the sun on a warm day (without More >

Do you remember the old game show with Monty Hall called “Let’s Make a Deal”? It was a crazy show from the ’60s and ’70s with a wacky studio audience that dressed up in bizarre costumes in an attempt to be chosen as participants. Let’s Make a Deal was resurrected in 2009 with comedian Wayne Brady as host.

And the show has featured a Sunlighten infrared sauna TWICE in the last month! It’s so fun to see our products on the air – especially as part of some terrific prize packages (the November 24th show – as seen in the video clip More >

If your first thoughts at the word “sauna” are something along the lines of “stifling” and “hard to breathe”, then I’m guessing you’ve never been in an infrared sauna. Sorry to sound sales-pitch-y but the differences between a traditional, “ladle-water-over-hot-rocks” kind of sauna and an infrared sauna really are astounding.

Heat Technology

A conventional sauna relies on indirect means of heat. The air is heated (convection) and then the hot air makes contact with the user’s skin (conduction). In an infrared sauna, the radiant infrared energy heats the air only slightly, heating the user’s body directly (conversion).
