Infrared saunas have taken the home sauna market in Edinburgh by storm, using the latest technology to soothe muscles, aid recovery, and relax your entire body like never before, all whilst using a fraction of the electricity of a traditional sauna.
Whilst traditional Finnish style saunas use electricity, or wood in the most traditional units to heat the room, infrared saunas send infrared waves into the body of the user itself, penetrating deep within the muscle tissue, improving blood flow, removing toxins and providing a whole host of other health benefits.

Infrared saunas: How do they work?
Infrared saunas send infrared waves into the body of the person using the sauna, rather than keeping the whole room warm like a traditional sauna or steam room.
Due to the length of the waves themselves, humans cannot see infrared light, but it can penetrate deep within the body (up to 4cm) providing deep muscle relaxation, producing an intense sweat, and increasing blood circulation much more effectively than traditional treatments.
Infrared saunas are completely safe when used in moderation as infrared waves are harmless to humans. they are even used in hospitals to treat new-born babies.
As they mainly heat the user, rather than the room, infrared sauna sessions can be significantly longer than traditional sauna sessions, making them the perfect relaxing experience after a long day in the office.
Even better, infrared saunas are far more energy efficient than their competitors meaning that all the fantastic relaxation and health benefits they provide come at a great price, certainly a lot less than a premium gym, spa, or salon membership.
Health benefits of an Infrared sauna Edinburgh
Improve Skin Health
As the infrared sauna increases your body temperature, it will promote a deep sweat, opening up your pores and allowing the toxins, debris, and dried skin to escape.
This will leave your skin shining in a similar manner to professional facials and you are sure to be receiving compliments on your new found glow the whole day long.
Aid Muscle Recovery
Many sports teams and pro athletes use infrared saunas as part of their recovery schedules and there is a good reason for this.
Infrared waves penetrate deep within the muscle and send blood surging to injured areas, aiding recovery, soothing aches, and removing lactic acid build up. This lets you train harder and more often than ever before whilst keeping your risk of injury to an absolute minimum.
Stiff Joint Relief
Heat treatments are regularly recommended by doctors and physios for symptomatic pain relief from stiff joint conditions such as arthritis.
Many people who suffer from such conditions often report that taking regular soaks in an infrared sauna works like nothing else when it comes to easing pain and increasing flexibility.
This relief may not last forever but with an infrared sauna in the comfort of your own home, it will be there whenever you need it most.
Reduce blood pressure
A far infrared sauna will heat up your body, causing blood vessels to dilate, cholesterol to fall, and blood pressure to reduce. This can dramatically reduce the chances of a number of extremely serious health problems.
De stress
The benefits of infrared saunas in Edinburgh are mental as well as physical with treatments being linked to the better reception of antidepressants such as dopamine and serotonin and a drop in cortisol levels. Many people experience a similar boost in mood following a sauna session as they do after finishing exercise or using spa facilities. Regular infrared sauna use will promote relaxation and help you destress.
Assist with weight loss
Another similarity between infrared sauna use and cardiovascular exercises such as running or a swim at the beach is an increase in burning calories in the period following a workout.
Using a sauna has been shown to increasing metabolism in the human body, and once you leave the sauna your body will continue to burn calories at a higher rate for a certain period of time, making it a useful accompaniment to a good diet and regular exercise when attempting to lose weight.
The one thing that you should bear in mind, however, is that weight loss immediately after a sauna soak is likely to just be water weight lost through sweating and you should rehydrate as soon as possible to stay healthy.
