Top 8 benefits of infrared sauna
Muscle and joint pain relief.
The deep soothing heat and increased blood circulation relaxes and restores sore muscles and joints.
Improve cardio health
Each infrared sauna session is a cardiac workout, equivalent to an hour of vigorous exercise but without the muscle fatigue or pain!
Reduce stress
Infrared light increases the production of endorphins in the body, similar to a post workout “high.”
Detoxification
As your internal temperature increases you’ll start sweating profusely which eliminates toxins stored deep inside the body.

Weight loss
The increase in heart and metabolic rate makes you burn more calories. Studies have shown you can burn up to 600 calories in one infrared sauna session.
Jacuzzi® infrared saunas, like the one we have at CGM, have been clinically tested for weight loss by Binghamton University (SUNY) in New York. You can read more about how infrared saunas can help with weight loss and see the results from the clinical studies here.
Boost immune system
The infrared heat is absorbed deeply into the body, raising your core temperature which triggers the body’s immune system and causes it to fight off infection.
Skin rejuvenation
Increased blood circulation and the elimination of toxins lead to smoother, clearer skin.
Improved sleep
The gentle and soothing heat of infrared promotes relaxation and improves sleep.
