As you relax in the infrared heat, your body will be working hard pumping blood, producing sweat and burning calories. As your body increases sweat production to cool you down, your heart works harder, pumping at a greater rate to boost circulation. This increases metabolism and burns calories while all you need to do is simply sit there and relax. Increased metabolic rate also releases the stored toxins in fat cells, and research has shown that increased blood circulation can significantly reduce cellulite.

The increased blood circulation you’ll experience while in a Life Works sauna carries off metabolic waste products and delivers oxygen-rich blood to oxygen-depleted muscles so they recover faster. Top athletes and sports teams have infrared saunas just like ours as part of their regular training and sports recovery schedules. Infrared heat reduces soreness on nerve endings and muscle spasms by gently heating your muscle joints and fibres.

When our saunas raise your core body temperature, the body reaps the benefits of strengthening and accelerating its immune system response. While your body is intensely sweating, it is eliminating toxins, increasing your overall health and resistance to disease. This detoxification comes from regular sauna sweating - helping your body rid itself of anything highly toxic, such as heavy metals, alcohol, nicotine, sulphuric acid, and other organic and non-organic compounds. Sauna sweating is one of the key detox procedures used by top health experts.

If you suffer from osteoarthritis, time spent in one of our infrared saunas can be of great benefit. Radiant heat is also highly effective in the treatment of sprains, neuralgia, muscle spasm, joint stiffness and other musculoskeletal ailments. Much of the stiffness, aches and soreness that comes with ageing can be reduced or eliminated through our sauna sessions.

Many of our regular users tell us how they look forward to the feeling they get after their sauna session and that they generally find they sleep well, or noticeably better, afterwards. Our saunas will help you feel relaxed, rejuvenated and renewed. Your session in our saunas is time for yourself, to reduce any built up stress or tension. What could be better as an escape from your busy life?

The sweating achieved after just a few minutes in one of our Life Works saunas eliminates deeply embedded impurities and dead skin cells leaving the skin glowing and immaculately clean. You’ll see improved tone, elasticity, and texture from your regular sauna sessions. Infrared sauna usage has also been shown to relieve acne, eczema, psoriasis, burns, lesions and cuts. Injuries heal more quickly from exposure to infrared heat, reducing scarring.
