Our 2 seater therapy room consists of an infrared sauna that heats its occupants with heaters that emit far infrared radiant heat. Unlike traditional Saunas, infrared saunas do not use steam, (which heats the air, and thereby the user) but instead use infrared heat to directly heat the user. Scientific studies have shown that a 45 minute session in an infrared sauna can result in the loss of toxins and stored fats in the body by up to six times the level a traditional sauna or exercise alone can achieve. Infrared is the only heat that penetrates deep enough into the tissues of the body to melt away cellulite and fats and the unique light wavelengths act to break down dangerous toxins and acids in the body.
Compared to a session in a traditional sauna, you can perspire up to three times more, resulting in these fragmented impurities being safely eliminated by the body through perspiration. An excellent way to detox the full body, an added health benefit of using an infrared sauna is weight loss. Your body will use up to 1000 calories in just 45 comfortable minutes.

Benefits From Using An Infrared Sauna
The human body has evolved with its own self-healing mechanism - the fever response- An increased body core temperature boosts the immune system to help kill harmful intruders and accelerates the healing process through increased circulation.
The Physiotherm Principle supports the body in its task of strengthening and protecting itself through infrared deep warmth. And this can have an almost immediately beneficial impact for many people, especially with common issues such as back pain. Over time regular sessions can result in a significant boost to their quality of life and general sense of well-being.
Issues of weight, physical and mental exhaustion caused by stress (burn-out syndrome), regular bouts of illness due to an impaired immune system and complaints linked to a poor supply of oxygen to the brain (e.g. poor concentration) are all issues that can potentially be helped by regular Physiotherm infrared sauna sessions.
Back pain is a major source of sick days for the UK economy and one of the most common cited health issues facing modern society. Many professionals suggest that this can be largely put down to our more sedentary lifestyles and being desk bound for many jobs. But have you ever noticed that your pain eases in summer? Many people experience pain relief in a warmer environment. A Physiotherm infrared therapy cabin in your own home offers an easy access source of soothing deep heat whenever you need it and regular sessions can offer long term improvements for many back pain sufferers.
Deep Sweat Therapy - Sweating has been known for millennia as a vital pathway for ridding the body of toxins and unwanted materials. A session enhances the elimination of metabolic wastes and other toxins by dramatically increasing the cleansing process of the body by stimulating a profuse sweat response.
Relaxation and stress reduction - An immediate and instantly noticeable effect is whole body relaxation; this complete relaxation on its own can have a profound impact on your general state of health. The sauna has the ability to warm your entire body from within by warming the blood vessels in your back which then circulates the entire body warming every part of you without any physical strain of heat on your system.
