SWEAT SMARTER, NOT HARDER Why A-Listers Are Ditching Traditional Gyms for Infrared Saunas

BETTER MOOD Besides improving your physical workout, infrared heat can also enhance your mood. When you sweat, you release hormones like dopamine and serotonin, which make you feel good. Infrared sessions can promote relaxation and better sleep — your mental health’s best friend. Some studies have even found participants had reduced anxiety and depression levels after just two weeks of treatment. If you’re ready to turn up the heat on your fitness journey, infrared gyms can help you torch calories faster, sweat out toxins, and burn through all your wellness goals!

Do you want to heat up your exercise routines for superstar results? Those in the know, like Lady Gaga and Gwyneth Paltrow, have been bringing their workouts into infrared saunas and gyms to help melt away toxins, tension, and calories. This technique utilizes infrared rays to penetrate your skin and muscles and heat your body from the inside out. It’s cooler than a traditional sauna but increases your temperature to get your heart pumping and start an intense sweat. Here’s why moving your routine to an infrared gym may be the steamy solution you’ve been looking for. FASTER WARM UP When you use infrared equipment, it raises your core temperature rapidly, causing your body to work harder to cool you down. Thus, you can gain more significant weight loss benefits in less time, allowing you to get more out of a 15- or 30-minute workout. The more you sweat, the more calories you can burn — without being a gym rat. QUICKER RECOVERY When body temperature and heart rate increase, the body pumps blood faster, improving overall circulation. This process, in turn, promotes quicker recovery for muscles. Infrared heat can also repair injured tissues and heal achy muscles and joints by reducing inflammation and relaxing the body. FEWER TOXINS One way the body eliminates toxins is by sweating. Being exposed to infrared heat can help you sweat out heavy metals and pollutants in your system and strengthen your immune system.
