Sauna Information our luxurious infrared sauna Fairport

In an infrared sauna, our bodies automatically exit fight or flight and enter parasympathetic mode (rest and digest). The parasympathetic nervous system helps produce a state of equilibrium in our bodies. Everything relaxes, gets more flexible. You don’t have to force yourself to relax; it happens automatically!


Let your body be your guide! Pay attention to your body and you will feel when you’re ready to end your sauna session. Infrared itself is quite safe. (For example, infrared is used to keep food warm, to gently heat premature babies in incubators.) If you ever don’t feel good in an infrared sauna, just get out. Start with shorter sessions of approximately 15 minutes. If it feels enjoyable, increase sauna session times.

Sauna Benefits

  • Decreased blood pressure

  • And more!

Sauna safety

  • Stay well hydrated! Drink liquids before and after your sauna session.


  • Don’t let yourself get overheated.


  • Core body temperatures of children, the elderly and the infirm can rise more quickly than those of adults. To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children, the elderly or infirm to use the sauna unless they are closely supervised.


  • At the first sign of cold or flu, increasing your sauna sessions may be beneficial in boosting your immune system and decreasing the reproductive rate of the viruses. Consult your physician for the proper treatment for this, or any other condition.


  • Never sleep inside the sauna while the unit is in full operation.


  • Do not use the sauna following strenuous exercise. Wait at least 15 minutes to allow the body to cool down completely.

What each color means

Yellow: Reduces redness

  • Yellow light reduces inflammation, sunburn, rosacea, or other skin conditions

Green: Clear complexion

  • Green light balances redness and blotches on skin for a naturally clear complexion

Cyan: Smooth skin

  • Cyan light emits a calming treatment to help irritated and inflamed skin

Blue: Whitens teeth and combats against acne

  • Blue light fights the bacteria that causes acne while lightening teeth

Violet: Cell renewal

  • Violet light increases cell regeneration, which can cleanse the skin as well as reduce inflammation 

Infrared: Penetrates deeper

  • Infrared light penetrates deeper in the skin for added results and benefits

Sauna Tips

  • Taking a shower or bath before a sauna session tends to increase perspiration as bathing opens the pores.
  • Limit food intake an hour before your sauna session. Your body will be able to detox more effectively because it will not be using that energy for digestion.
  • Towel off during your session. This will help the body perspire more freely.
  • To relieve sore and tight muscles, massage those areas for faster healing and effectiveness.
  • Oil and lotions tend to decrease perspiration by blocking pores. Apply these after your session for best results.
  •  Some minerals can be lost in perspiration. Eating a sensible diet including fruits and green leafy vegetables will replace these. Supplements can also be taken to replenish minerals.
  • As you become more heat conditioned *, you may wish to increase the length of your sauna session. This is especially useful for soft tissue therapy. (Make sure to stay hydrated.)


* Heat acclimatization, hyperthermic conditioning and hormesis are all significant benefits from sauna therapy. This phenomenon of increased fitness from heat exposure is demonstrated in many clinical references.

Infrared sauna contradictions list

Medications 

Individuals who are using prescription drugs should seek the advice of their personal physician or a pharmacist for possible changes in the drugs effect when the body is exposed to Far infrared waves or elevated body temperature. Diuretics, barbiturates and beta-blockers may impair the body's natural heat loss mechanisms. 


Some over the counter drugs such as antihistamines may also cause the body to be more prone to heat stroke. 


Children 

The core body temperature of children rises much faster than adults.This occurs due to a higher metabolic rate per body mass, limited circulatory adaptation to increased cardiac demands and the inability to regulate body temperature by sweating. Consult with the child's Pediatrician before using the sauna. 


Saunas & The Elderly 

The ability to maintain core body temperature decreases with age.This is primarily due to circulatory condi­tions and decreased sweat gland function. The body must be able to activate its natural cooling processes in order to maintain core body temperature. 


Cardiovascular Conditions 

Individuals with cardiovascular conditions or problems (hypertension / hypo tension), congestive heart failure, impaired coronary circulation or those who are taking medications, which might affect blood pressure, should exercise extreme caution when exposed to prolonged heat. Heat stress increases cardiac output, blood flow, in an effort to transfer internal body heat to the outside environment via the skin (perspiration) and respiratory system.This takes place primarily due to major changes in the heart rate, which has the potential to increase by thirty (30) beats per minute for each degree increase in core body temperature. 


Alcohol/Alcohol Abuse 

Contrary to popular belief, it is not advisable to attempt to "Sweat Out" a hangover. Alcohol intoxication decreases a person's judgment; therefore they may not realize it when the body has a negative reaction to high heat. Alcohol also increases the heart rate, which may be further increased by heat stress. 


Chronic Conditions/ Diseases Associated With A Reduced Ability To Sweat Or Perspire

Multiple Sclerosis, Central Nervous System Tumors and Diabetes with Neuropathy are conditions that are associated with impaired sweating. Hemophiliacs/Individuals Prone To Bleeding. 


The use of Infrared saunas should be avoided by anyone who is predisposed to bleeding. 


Fever 

Individuals should not use the sauna when they have a fever. 

Insensitivity to heat 


An individual that has insensitivity to heat should not use a sauna. 


Pregnancy 

Pregnant women should consult a physician before using a sauna because fetal damage can occur with a certain elevated body temperature. 


Menstruation 

Heating of the low back area of women during the menstrual period may temporarily increase their menstrual flow. Some women endure this process to gain the pain relief commonly associated with their cycle, whereas others simply choose to avoid sauna use during that time.


Joint Injury 

If you have a recent (acute) joint injury, it should not be heated for the first 48 hours after an injury or until the hot and swollen symptoms subside. If you have a joint or joints that are chronically hot and swollen, these joints may respond poorly to vigorous heating of any kind. Vigorous heating is strictly contra-indicated in cases of enclosed infections be they dental, in joints or in any other tissues. 


Implants 

Metal pins, rods, artificial joints or any other surgical implants generally reflect Far infrared waves and thus are not heated by this system, nevertheless you should consult your surgeon prior to using an Infrared Sauna. 

Certainly, the usage of an Infrared Sauna must be discontinued if you experience pain near any such implants. Silicone does absorb Far infrared energy. Implanted silicone or silicone prostheses for nose or ear replacement may be warmed by the Far infrared waves. Since silicone melts at over 200°C (392°F), it should not be adversely affected by the usage of Infrared saunas. It is still advised that you check with your surgeon and possibly a representative from the implant manufacturer to be certain. 


NOTE:

People with a heavy toxicant body burden – whether from disease, such as Lyme disease, internal bacteria, absorbed environmental pollutants – might have to start with shorter sessions. When the body releases toxins more quickly into the system than the organs can eliminate them, people can experience flu-like symptoms or nausea – the Herxheimer Reaction. The Herxheimer Reaction can happen when the body is able to release dying bacteria, endotoxins, or toxicants the body has absorbed, and is a response to those toxins being mobilized or dying off in our bodies and eliminated.
