INFRARED SAUNA
Infrared saunas use gentle, infrared heat to raise your body’s core temperature, providing whole-body thermotherapy that heals from the inside out. Unlike traditional saunas, infrared saunas allow you to sweat at a lower, more comfortable temperature, creating a relaxing and enjoyable healing experience at Soak Wellness Spa
Benefits of Infrared Sauna Therapy
Deep warmth. Detox support. Nervous system reset.
Infrared sauna therapy is a deeply restorative wellness experience that uses gentle infrared heat to warm the body from the inside out. At Soak Wellness Spa in Montrose, Colorado, our infrared sauna sessions are designed to support detoxification, circulation, muscle recovery, and deep relaxation—without the overwhelming heat of traditional saunas.
This therapeutic warmth encourages the body to release tension, calm the nervous system, and support overall well-being.
What Is Infrared Sauna Therapy?
Infrared saunas use infrared light waves to gently penetrate the skin and tissues, warming the body directly rather than heating the surrounding air. This allows for a more comfortable experience while still delivering powerful benefits.
Many guests find infrared sauna therapy especially supportive for stress relief, muscle recovery, joint discomfort, and overall relaxation.
Benefits of Infrared Sauna Therapy
Regular infrared sauna use may help:
- Support detoxification through gentle sweating
- Improve circulation and cardiovascular health
- Reduce muscle tension and joint discomfort
- Promote relaxation and stress relief
- Support lymphatic drainage
- Enhance recovery after exercise or physical strain
- Encourage nervous system regulation and calm
The deep, soothing heat helps the body shift out of “fight or flight” and into a parasympathetic, rest-and-restore state.
Infrared Sauna & Stress Relief
Infrared sauna therapy is known for its calming effects on the nervous system. The consistent, penetrating warmth encourages relaxation, lowers stress hormones, and supports mental clarity.
Many guests use sauna sessions as a form of active meditation—focusing on breath, presence, and intentional rest.
Detox Support & Circulation
Infrared sauna therapy supports the body’s natural detox pathways by promoting circulation and sweating. Improved blood flow helps deliver oxygen and nutrients to tissues while supporting the removal of metabolic waste.
This makes infrared sauna a powerful complement to other wellness practices focused on recovery and balance.
Pair Infrared Sauna with Cold Plunge
Infrared sauna therapy pairs beautifully with cold plunge therapy for contrast therapy. Alternating between heat and cold can further enhance circulation, reduce inflammation, and support nervous system resilience.
Contrast therapy allows the body to experience controlled stress and recovery—helping build physical and mental adaptability over time.
