Smart Sauna Technology

3-in-1® Infrared + Red
When you want all the health benefits infrared and red light provide, you need a heater that can manage all of the wavelengths. Red/near, mid and far each interact differently with our bodies, and provide different benefits. To create each one requires different conditions (and a lot of advanced math). It’s impossible to deliver these three peak wavelengths at one time from a single source because each requires a different temperature. That’s why Sunlighten developed a unique technology that combines two heating elements and an LED light panel in one sauna heater.
Integrated Red Light
Research shows low levels of light have a much better effect on stimulating and repairing tissues than higher levels. We blended low levels of red light with NIR light to bathe you in both, allowing us to create a quiet, comfortable red light therapy experience. The LED panels are integrated in the walls and part of our 3 in 1® Smart Sauna technology that manages the pre-set health programs, heaters and LED panels.


Health Benefits
Relaxation
Escape the stress and really relax.
Rest and recovery are important parts of overall wellness. Infrared sauna sessions provide a warm, comfortable environment that may help support relaxation and stress reduction as part of your wellness routine.


Stress affects your entire body.
Chronic stress can affect both mental and physical well-being, including sleep, mood, heart rate and blood pressure. Creating time for rest and recovery can be an important part of a balanced wellness routine.
Infrared sauna sessions provide a warm, quiet environment that may help support relaxation and give you time to unwind.
Heart Health
Cardiovascular Wellness
Infrared sauna sessions create a warm environment that can temporarily increase heart rate and circulation as your body responds to the heat. This makes sauna a relaxing addition to a balanced wellness routine, but it is not a replacement for regular cardiovascular exercise.


Infrared Sauna & Circulation
Heat exposure during an infrared sauna session may support circulation as blood vessels respond to warmth. Research has explored sauna use in relation to cardiovascular health, but infrared sauna should be viewed as a wellness practice rather than a treatment for heart conditions.
Anti Aging
Support Skin Rejuvenation
Red and near-infrared light are used in photobiomodulation to support cellular activity in the skin. These wavelengths may help support collagen production, skin tone, texture and the overall appearance of healthy skin.


Enhance Skin Tone and Texture.
Infrared and red light may help support collagen and elastin production, which can contribute to smoother-looking skin and improved appearance of tone and texture over time.

Support the Appearance of Scars
Red and near-infrared light may help support circulation and normal cellular activity in the skin. Over time, this may help support the appearance and texture of areas affected by scars as part of an overall skin-care routine.

Support Clearer-Looking Skin
Infrared sauna sessions encourage sweating, which can help remove surface buildup such as oil and impurities from the skin. Combined with a consistent skin-care routine, this may help support a cleaner, clearer-looking complexion.

Refresh & Rejuvenate Your Skin
Infrared sauna sessions encourage sweating and provide a warm environment that may help support circulation and normal skin function. As part of a consistent wellness and skin-care routine, sauna use can support the overall appearance and feel of healthy skin.
Weight Loss
A Relaxing Addition to Your Wellness Routine
Infrared sauna offers a warm, comfortable environment that can be an enjoyable part of a consistent wellness routine. Sessions may support relaxation and circulation while giving you time to unwind.
Sauna use should complement — not replace — healthy eating, regular activity and other habits that support long-term weight management.

Muscle Recovery
Recovery Matters
Recovery is an important part of any training routine. Infrared sauna sessions provide a warm, relaxing environment that may help support circulation, muscle comfort and recovery after activity.

I use it as a post training tool. It helps with circulation. It’s great for my joints, reducing inflammation in them. I’m going to continue to utilize it as much as I can. We’re lucky to have this incredible facility and they provide us with everything we need to succeed on the field and for me the sauna is a part of that.
