Red light therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses low-level wavelengths of red or near-infrared (NIR) light on the body or large areas of the body. During treatment, photons, or single units of light, are absorbed by photosensitive molecules in a part of your skin cells. In red light treatments, this can lead to reduced inflammation, increased tissue repair, and skin healing.

Client may stand or sit during treatment. Client is unclothed in front of 6 foot high by 2 foot wide private wall panel.

We suggest 20 minutes maximum. 10 minutes front body, 10 minutes back body. Client is provided with safety goggles during treatment.

The choice between a sauna and a steam room often comes down to personal preference, as both have unique features and potential health benefits. Here are some factors to consider when comparing saunas and steam rooms:

**1. Heat and Humidity:

Sauna: Saunas use dry heat, typically ranging from 160°F to 200°F (71°C to 93°C), with low humidity. The heat is often described as a "dry heat."

Steam Room: Steam rooms, on the other hand, use moist heat with high humidity levels, usually around 100% humidity.

**2. How They Work:

Sauna: Saunas heat the air, and the warmth is absorbed by the body through direct contact with the hot air and surfaces.

Steam Room: Steam rooms produce steam by heating water, and the moist heat is absorbed by the body through the skin and respiratory system.

**3. Benefits:

Both saunas and steam rooms are believed to offer similar benefits, such as relaxation, stress reduction, improved circulation, and potential benefits for the skin. However, some individuals may find that the moist heat in a steam room is more soothing for the respiratory system.

**4. Respiratory Conditions:

Individuals with respiratory conditions, such as asthma, may find that the moist heat in a steam room is more comfortable and less irritating to the respiratory passages than the dry heat in a sauna.

**5. Hydration:

It's essential to stay hydrated in both saunas and steam rooms, but individuals in steam rooms may find themselves drinking water more frequently due to the higher humidity levels.

**6. Personal Preference:

Ultimately, personal preference plays a significant role. Some people enjoy the dry heat of a sauna, while others prefer the moist heat of a steam room.

Here are some general guidelines on when you might consider using a sauna:

After Exercise:

Many people enjoy using a sauna after exercising. The heat can help relax muscles and relieve tension. However, it's essential to rehydrate after both exercise and sauna use.

To Relax and De-stress:

Saunas are known for their stress-relieving properties. If you're looking for a way to unwind and relax, using a sauna can be a great option.

To Promote Sleep:

Using a sauna in the evening may help promote relaxation and contribute to a good night's sleep. However, it's generally recommended to avoid using a sauna too close to bedtime, as the body needs time to cool down afterward.

During Cold and Flu Season:

Some people use saunas when they feel the onset of cold or flu symptoms. The heat may help alleviate congestion and promote a feeling of well-being. However, individuals with certain respiratory conditions should consult with a healthcare professional before using a sauna.

As Part of a Wellness Routine:

Regular sauna use is part of the wellness routines in many cultures. Some people find it beneficial for maintaining overall well-being.

To Support Detoxification:

Saunas are believed by some to support the detoxification process by promoting sweating. However, the extent to which saunas contribute to detoxification is debated among health professionals.

After Cold Exposure:

If you've been exposed to cold weather or have been participating in winter sports, using a sauna can be a way to warm up and relax stiff muscles.

Before a Shower:

Some individuals prefer using a sauna before taking a shower. The heat opens up pores, and a cool shower afterward can be refreshing.

As Part of a Spa or Wellness Day:

Sauna use is often part of spa or wellness experiences. It can be incorporated into a day of self-care and relaxation.

Important Considerations:

Stay hydrated: It's crucial to drink plenty of water before and after sauna use to prevent dehydration.

Listen to your body: If you feel lightheaded, dizzy, or uncomfortable, exit the sauna and cool down.

Medical conditions: Individuals with certain medical conditions, such as cardiovascular issues, should consult with a healthcare professional before using a sauna.

Duration of Sauna Sessions:

Sauna sessions typically last anywhere from 15 to 60 minutes. It's important to listen to your body and exit the sauna if you start feeling uncomfortable or lightheaded.

Stay Hydrated:

Drink plenty of water before, during, and after your sauna session to stay hydrated. Sweating can lead to fluid loss, and adequate hydration is crucial.

Frequency:

The frequency of sauna use can vary. Some people use saunas a few times a week, while others use them more or less frequently. The key is to find a frequency that works for you without causing dehydration or discomfort.

Whether you use a sauna before or after a workout can depend on your personal preference and your fitness goals. Both options have potential benefits, and the choice may vary based on individual preferences and how your body responds to heat therapy. Here are some considerations for using a sauna before or after a workout:

1. Sauna Before a Workout:

Potential Benefits:

Increased Blood Flow: The heat from the sauna can increase blood flow and warm up muscles, potentially enhancing flexibility and reducing the risk of injury during exercise.

Mental Preparation: Some individuals find that a pre-workout sauna session helps them mentally prepare for exercise and promotes focus.

Considerations:

Be cautious not to overheat, especially if you have certain medical conditions or are prone to dehydration. It's essential to stay hydrated before and during exercise.

2. Sauna After a Workout:

Potential Benefits:

Relaxation: Using a sauna post-workout can promote relaxation and help the body recover from exercise-induced stress.

Muscle Recovery: The heat may assist in muscle recovery by increasing blood flow and reducing muscle tension.

Detoxification: Some individuals use saunas after a workout to induce sweating and potentially eliminate certain substances.

Considerations:

Rehydrate after your workout and sauna session to replace fluids lost through sweating.

3. Individual Preferences:

Some people prefer using a sauna before a workout to warm up their muscles, while others find it more beneficial for relaxation and recovery after exercise.

Experiment with both approaches to see what feels best for your body and enhances your overall exercise experience.

4. Hydration:

Regardless of when you use the sauna, staying hydrated is crucial. Drink water before, during, and after sauna sessions to prevent dehydration.

5. Listen to Your Body:

Pay attention to how your body responds. If you feel lightheaded, dizzy, or uncomfortable at any point, exit the sauna and cool down.

Ultimately, there is no one-size-fits-all answer, and the decision to use a sauna before or after a workout is a personal one. It may be helpful to try both approaches and see which works best for you in terms of performance, recovery, and overall well-being.
