The Detox Hut

Infrared Sauna

An Infrared Sauna operates with a penetrating heat directly targeting tissue and is set at a lower temperature of 45-55 degrees. This is to achieve a deeper, detoxifying sweat at a cellular level.

The penetrating infrared rays reach the connective tissue layer which is where most heavy metals and toxins are stored and can also be set at various wave lengths to customise your treatment.

It is great for reducing pain/inflammation and flushing lactic acid from your body post workout.  It also encourages healthy skin as it oxygenates the blood which helps flush impurities from the skin and promotes healing and repair. It improves cardio health while promoting deep relaxation.

Conventional hot rock/steam heat saunas heat the air with steam operating at a higher degree of 70+.  This heat will produce a water sweat at the surface of the tissue which has been proven to not be as detoxifying. Steam can also make the air difficult to breath for some people. An infrared sauna uses dry heat, creating a more comfortable environment.
