Try a 15-minute infrared sauna treatment before therapeutic/deep tissue work to help prep your muscles for a more intense treatment, or use those 15 minutes to clear your head from your hectic day and get ready for your appointment.
(sauna must be pre-booked to allow sauna to heat up)
Information about Infrared Sauna Therapy
What is an Infrared Sauna?
Instead of steam or flame-stoked heat, infrared saunas use infrared lamps and electromagnetic magic to create warmth. The process allows infrared saunas to operate at a lower temperature while still providing therapeutic benefits.
The lamps in infrared saunas focus a penetrating warmth directly on your skin to bring heat-therapy benefits. Traditional methods crank up the air temperature within an entire sauna.
