Cryospa
Cryotherapy, a technique involving exposure to extreme cold temperatures, has gained attention for its potential benefits in injury recovery. By reducing inflammation, cryotherapy helps minimize swelling and pain associated with acute injuries. It also promotes faster healing by increasing blood flow to the affected area. Additionally, cryotherapy can aid in muscle recovery by alleviating damage and promoting tissue repair. The release of endorphins during cryotherapy sessions can also improve mood and reduce stress levels. It is important to note that cryotherapy should be used alongside conventional medical care and under the guidance of a healthcare professional.

Infrared Sauna
While the heat alone of an infrared sauna is enjoyable, the body's physiological response to the rise of internal temperatures causes the cardiovascular system to engage as if were actively participating in exercise. Therefore, the same positive effects of vigorous exercise that increase the release of dopamine hormones also occurs during infrared sauna therapy. However, unlike exercise, the body remains in a relaxed state during your sauna session. In as little as 15 minutes of an infrared sauna session, three times as much dopamine is released compared to that of a moderate run. Elevated levels of dopamine in the body are responsible for some portions of states of euphoria! Naturally, feelings of euphoria are a welcome change to anyone suffering from S.A.D.
Benefits of Using Infrared Sauna
According to the Journal of the American Medical Association, regular use of a sauna imparts a similar boost on the cardiovascular system to running. As you relax in the gentle infrared heat, your body is hard at work producing sweat, pumping blood and burning calories. As your body increases sweat production to cool itself, your heart works harder to pump blood at a greater rate to boost circulation. This increase in your metabolism will burn calories.
Increased blood circulation carries off metabolic waste products and delivers oxygen-rich blood to oxygen-depleted muscle, so they recover faster. Muscles relax best when tissues are warm, for greater flexibility and range of motion. Far Infrared heat relieves muscle tension and the deep heat of far infrared saunas help peripheral blood vessels dilate, bringing relief and healing to muscle and soft tissue injuries. Infrared heat also reduces soreness on nerve endings and muscle spasms as muscle joints and fibers are heated.
The deep heating from the Clearlight Sauna True Wave II(TM) infrared heaters will raise your core body temperature, inducing an artificial fever. How does this benefit the body? Fever is the body's natural mechanism to strengthen and accelerate the immune response, as seen in the case of infection. This enhanced immune system, combined with improved elimination of toxins and wastes via intense sweating, increases your overall health and resistance to disease.
One of the biggest infrared sauna health benefits is its ability to increase your blood circulation and stimulate the sweat glands, releasing built-up toxins in the body.
Daily sauna sweating can help detoxify your body as it rids itself of accumulated highly toxic metals (lead, mercury, nickel, and cadmium) as well as alcohol, nicotine, sulfuric acid, and other organic and inorganic compounds.
Cellulite refers to superficial pockets of trapped fat, which cause uneven dimpling or "orange peel" skin. It appears in 90% of post-adolescent women and is rarely seen in men. Common but not exclusive areas where cellulite is found are the buttocks, thighs, and the abdomen. Contrary to popular belief, cellulite is not related to obesity, and the appearance of cellulite is not always reduced by weight loss.
Time spent in an infrared sauna benefits patients suffering from many forms of arthritis. Radiant heat has also been effective in the treatment of sprains, neuralgia, bursitis, muscle spasms, joint stiffness and many other muscular-skeletal ailments. Much of the stiffness, aches and soreness that comes with aging is reduced or eliminated.
Just a few minutes in the gentle warmth of an infrared sauna will help you feel relaxed, rejuvenated and renewed.
The profuse sweating achieved after just a few minutes in your Clearlight Sauna carries off deeply embedded impurities and dead skin cells, leaving the skin glowing and immaculately clean. Increased circulation draws your skin's own natural nutrients to the surface. You'll see improved tone, elasticity, texture and fresh colour. Increased blood circulation has also been shown to relieve acne, eczema, psoriasis, burns, lesions and cuts. In addition, open wounds heal more quickly, reducing scarring.

Pain Management
Cryospa and Infrared Sauna are treatments that can effectively aid in pain relief. Cryospas use extreme cold temperatures to reduce inflammation, numb pain, and promote faster recovery from injuries. Infrared Sauna penetrates deep into the tissues, increasing blood flow and delivering soothing heat that can alleviate muscle and joint pain, as well as conditions such as fibromyalgia and neuropathy. Together, these therapies offer non-invasive and holistic approaches to managing and reducing pain.
