Cold and flu season is here! Boost your immunity with regular sauna sessions

Bad bugs seem to be all around us in winter. It's time to strengthen your immune system so you can stay healthy. One powerful way to do this is by incorporating regular infrared sauna sessions into your wellness routine. Not only can infrared saunas help prevent illness, they also support faster recovery if you do catch a bug.

What is an infrared sauna?

Unlike traditional saunas that heat the air around you, infrared saunas use infrared light to penetrate deep into your body, warming you from the inside out. This method allows for a more comfortable experience at lower temperatures while delivering profound health benefits:

• Detoxification – Sweating is one of the body's natural ways of eliminating toxins. Infrared saunas promote a deep sweat, helping to remove harmful substances that can weaken your immune system.

  
  

• Increased circulation – The heat from infrared light boosts blood flow, helping to deliver oxygen and nutrients to your cells more efficiently, keeping your immune system strong and resilient.
  

• Enhanced white blood cell production – Regular sauna use has been shown to stimulate the production of white blood cells, which play a crucial role in fighting off infections.
  

• Reduced stress and improved sleep – Chronic stress and poor sleep can weaken the immune system, making you more susceptible to illness. Infrared sauna sessions promote relaxation, reduce cortisol levels, and improve sleep quality, helping your body stay in top shape.
  

But if you DO get sick…

If you happen to catch a cold or flu, an infrared sauna session can still be beneficial. The deep heat helps to relieve congestion, ease body aches, and induce a healthy sweat, which can aid in faster recovery. Additionally, the increase in circulation helps speed up the healing process by delivering more oxygen and nutrients to affected areas.

Make infrared sauna sessions part of your wellness routine

To maximize the immune-boosting benefits, consider incorporating infrared sauna sessions into your routine at least 2-3 times per week. Whether you're looking to prevent illness or recover faster, regular use can keep you feeling your best all season long.
