Infrared sauna cabins emit infrared heat, which is unlike traditional saunas or steam rooms. Infrared is an electromagnetic light wave that penetrates 4-6 inches into your skin for the ultimate cellular level detox, from the inside out! The infrared wavelength is part of the sun's invisible spectrum of light, located next the the colour red and felt as warmth. Infrared heat is safe and healing - so safe that it is used in hospitals to keep newborns warm in humidicribs.

These penetrating rays of light help to boost your metabolism and allow your body to sweat away harmful toxins. Infrared rays are easily absorbed and penetrate the body deeply, stimulating lymphatic, immune and cardiovascular sysytems.

For Beginners:

Start slow: Begin with sessions lasting 10-30 minutes. Monitor your body and pay attention to how you feel during and after the session. Hydrate well before and after.

For Regular Users or people who have a high heat tolerance:

Gradual increase: As your body adapts, you can extend sauna sessions up to 30-45 minutes. Hydrate before and after your sessions. Consider adding an electrolyte to your water. Single packet electrolytes are available in studio.

Children age 6-15 can use the sauna only with a parent or guardian in the wellness studio.

We do ask for a doctor’s note stating they do not have heart issues, respiratory issues, or blood pressure issues. If your child is unwell or has a fever - they can not use the sauna.

We advise children to use the sauna for no longer than 20 minutes at a time.

The parent must also agree to keep the child on the bench in the sauna and avoid getting close the the heaters that are HOT to touch.

Parents or guardians must read and sign the and waiver for both themselves and their child, and acknowledge the child section of the waiver.

If you have been intoxicated within 24 hours of your scheduled sauna session we will have to reschedule your appointment. It can be dangerous to your health to be in an infrared sauna if you have been drinking heavily so close to your session. The body goes through an intense detoxification process during our sauna treatments and will do whatever it can to rebalance itself and return to a place of homeostasis. Alcohol in excess is a toxin in the body and when combined with dehydration, can be very unpleasant. Please refrain from alcohol use before your appointment.

As long as you stay hydrated, you can go about your daily business after a sweat. However, to fully enjoy your post-sweat glow, we recommend taking it fairly easy for an hour or so.

We do not. We have an area with a small sink with items to help you freshen up but no shower.

Unfortunately, we cannot offer infrared sauna sessions to pregnant clients.

You can however enjoy the brain tap mediation treatment.

In the sauna you can meditate, daydream, listen to music or a podcast on the cabin Bluetooth (which you can connect your phone to), stretch, and just relax and embrace the beautiful warmth and healing going on in that incredible body of yours.
