Let me paint a little picture here for you….

Your feeling tired, drained, like your body is holding onto so many toxins from daily life & that one heavy weekend when you went away with your girlfriends. You are not feeling good about yourself right now.

Maybe you’ve gone & got a massage & you’re muscles are feeling a little better but you still feel like your whole system is a bit sluggish right now. You could try to do one of those detox diet or drink type things but really the process is kind of long & definitely isn’t fun getting there.

Que the A Thousand Paths infrared Sauna!

Need to detox your mind? Use the Infrared Sauna – it’s a perfect meditation in a box (literally)

Need to detox your body? Use the Infrared Sauna – Sweat out all the toxins

A friend get you into this state to begin with? Bring her with you for the Infrared Sauna

Ok so lets break it down to what it actually is:

It’s a sauna (I know duh right) but instead of using water on hot rocks to create steam to heat everything up, it uses Infrared panels that directly heat up your body, not just the air outside of it. This means that your body itself heats up & you sweat faster without having to six in a super hot box for hours.

Why Infrared?

For 1 thing, it’s easier for the user. Have you ever been sitting in a sauna & had to get up to add more water to the stones so it keeps steaming for you? It’s super inconvienient & ruins any mediative state you totally had going on. There is none of that with the Infrared Sauna, we set it for you & you just get out when the timer goes off. Super simple.

2nd – you need to sit in that SUPER hot humid chamber for ages to get the same benefits & it can get extremely uncomfortable. In fact you may not be able to stay in a regular sauna that long at all with the extreme heat. The Infrared Sauna doesn’t get up to the same temperature because it uses approx 80% to heat your body directly & only 20% to heat up the air (according to manufactures). This means that you’re more comfortable sitting in the Infrared sauna & your body gets heated up quicker meaning it’s more effective.

There’s also evidence that shows that because the infrared is targeting & heating up your body itself the heat can actually penetrate deeper than the traditional style of sauna, so you sweat more but at a lower temperature.

Why Sauna at all? – AKA Benefits

– Better sleep (we all love that)

– Detoxification (for that crazy wine weekend we were talking about)

– Relaxation

– Weight loss

– Helps sore muscles 

– Helps joint pain (arthritis)

– Clearer & tighter skin (got to love that!)

– Improves circulation

– Helps with chronic fatigue syndrome

– Aids recovery during strength training

So I think that pretty much sums up why it’s so awesome & why we love our Infrared Sauna here at A Thousand Paths.

We do offer packages for 30min & 45min sessions in our Infrared Sauna so if you want to smash out a few you can pay for a bunch at once & get an awesome deal. You can also bring a friend along to chill (not physically obviously) & chat with you while you sweat it all out for an extra $10.
