Why use the Infrared Dry Sauna?
Heat enhances blood circulation and promotes the oxygenation of body tissues. It provides proven relief of aches, pains and stiffness. Heat also increases energy production in the body. This facilitates healing and requires the burning of calories, which results in effortless weight loss. It also causes an increase in heart rate, which results in an effortless cardiovascular workout.
The skin is a major eliminative organ and sweating enhances the skin elimination process. An infrared sauna heats the body with radiant heat and profuse sweating begins quickly. The surrounding air in the sauna, however, remains cool. The experience is both comfortable and pleasant.
Conventional saunas and steam baths transfer heat by circulating hot air – warming your body from your head down whereas infrared heat rays warm your body directly. Steam, hot water and traditional saunas that operate at over 170ºF are difficult to tolerate for more than a few minutes. Infrared saunas remain at 100ºF to 130ºF and one can spend longer periods in this healing and pleasant environment. The hot tub is also not a good alternative to an infrared sauna. While hot tubs are good to a point, sweating is less than in the infrared sauna and the body absorbs chemicals from the water, plus the chlorine in the water produces chlorine gas bubbling to the surface.
Everyone today is exposed to heavy metals and toxic chemicals. Regular use of an infrared sauna is an excellent way to detoxify the body. Infrared heat penetrates several inches deep into joints and muscles. This increases metabolism and allows body cells to eliminate toxins more readily in the sweat.
Infrared light is completely natural and safe. Its dry, warming energy is highly compatible with human tissue. Its wavelength is the same as the radiant heat from the sun and all life requires the sun. Infrared saunas provide all the benefits of natural sunlight without the harmful effects of ultraviolet radiation.
How does it work?
Our sauna offers a modern twist to an age-old experience. Traditional saunas raise the temperature of the air in order to warm the body. Our new sauna works differently. Instead of heating the air within the enclosure, our sauna emits an infrared wavelength that heats your body only.
Because the rays are absorbed directly into the body, one can work up a sweat at less intense temperatures than a traditional sauna (100ºF – 130ºF vs. 185ºF -195ºF) the infrared heat is a form of naturally occurring energy that heats objects by direct light conversion.
Our sauna warms only the object and does not raise the temperature of the surrounding free air. To understand how infrared heat works, picture yourself outdoors on a summer day with the sun beaming overhead. Your body feels warm from the sun and you become hot. Then a cloud passes overhead, blocking out the sun. The temperature outside has not changed, but you feel cooler in the shade.
Your body was being heated by the Sun’s infrared rays. Infrared heaters warm the body in the same manner as natural sunlight. Our sauna emulates the infrared rays produced by the sun.
All life requires infrared heat from the sun. Our infrared heat is not ultraviolet radiation but a narrow band of energy within the 5.6 to 15-micron level. This type of energy travels 2-3″ deep into the body to increase circulation and nourish damaged tissue. The sun is the primary source of radiant energy, but not all of this energy is beneficial. Sunlight also contains harmful solar radiation. Although life needs energy from the sun, too much sunlight damages the skin. Far-Infrared Radiant (FIR) heat provides all the healthy benefits of natural sunlight without any of the dangerous effects of solar radiation.
FIR heat therapy uses the wavelength of the visible and non-visible light spectrum of sunlight that heats the body normally. In past years, the healthcare industry used old fashion infrared heat lamps that were cumbersome, extremely hot and difficult to maintain at a constant temperature. Our sauna incorporates recently developed technology using ceramic infrared heaters that create consistency in temperature for heat therapy.
Beauty-Full’s sauna is made from hemlock fir and is completely odourless and non-irritating to the lungs, unlike the aroma associated with cedar-type saunas. There was no plywood, veneer or toxic glue used in the building of our sauna.
Beware of more free time – may not be a good idea!
Some new Infrared Sauna Therapy service users/providers are ignorant of the fact that you for most of us, more time in the Infrared Sauna does not translate into better results for the user. The reference to “most of us” is in reference to most of us not having a completely balanced nutritional program (with a body pH of 7.5). The standard time in an Infrared Sauna is felt to be 30-minutes as people whose bodies are not completely balanced will not face any negative consequences. However, if you are in the lucky minority who have a completed balanced body, then you could safely spend an additional 10-minutes in the Infrared Sauna. There is a consensus that you should never spend any more than 40-minutes in the Infrared Sauna environment.
One of the negative side effects for a person with an imbalanced body is the potential to create an imbalance in the overall chemistry within the body which can cause a massive healing reaction that can be unpleasant and even dangerous. So in this particular case use the old adage less is more and takes only the benefits of the Infrared Sauna.

My mother finds that the Infrared Dry Sauna assists in healing faster after two surgeries she has had to reduce her issues with obesity. She feels much better after each Infrared Sauna Therapy session and thinks everything is healing faster. Also the staff at Beauty-Full Spa are encouraging and very friendly, plus the place is really clean. *Results may vary person to person.
I was so impressed by the honesty I found at Beauty-Full Spa. I have gone to other Infrared Sauna providers in Ajax and Whitby and found that they were selling time in a box without knowing what it is that they are selling. Besides being very clean and giving me a sense of safety, they also limited my stay in the Sauna. I am currently doing cancer treatments and my acidity levels are high, so my body chemistry is imbalanced. Beauty-Full Spa were the only providers that warned me that less exposure is more exposure with my current body imbalanced. So I have not felt any negative aspects from these session which were approved by my physician. Thanks Beauty-Full Spa. *Results may vary person to person.
Helps big time with the arthritis in my knuckles. Although it helps my lower back feel less painful, it seems to work really good for reducing the pain in my knuckles which my family MD said is arthritis, whatever it is, going to the sauna at Beauty-Full Spa in Pickering seems to help reduce the pain for up to a week afterwards. Any relief is a welcoming change. *Results may vary person to person.
My ND concurred, you should never spend more than 30 minutes in an Infrared Sauna unless you know for an absolute certain that your body has a pH of 7.4-7.5. Getting 40 minutes for the price of 30 minutes may be the worst deal you can ever get. Know your body before being over-exposed. In 30 minute time frames, it is safe for everyone, but if you are healthy why would you need Infrared Sauna Therapy? Thus most of the users have imbalanced body chemistry and I agree should limited their time in the environment for 30 minutes! *Results may vary person to person.
I guess I was one of Beauty-Full Spa's original Infrared Sauna users as I have been using their sauna since the Fall of 2005. My ND suggests that I do one every 3 months, so it didn't make sense to purchase one. The sauna is always clean and so is the Spa and I enjoy coming here for my Infrared Sauna Therapy sessions. They always have time for me and make me feel special. Highly recommend them! *Results may vary person to person.
I went to Beauty-Full Spa in Pickering to get a few Infrared Sauna's as a friend had told me they might help a pain I was having in my lower back. One day last year I was telling Paul about my pain and he suggested I speak to my family doctor and well I didn't have a family doctor. So he recommended Dr. Hseih in Whitby who was still taking new clients and also had a walk-in clinic. Best advice I ever had as Dr. Hseih suspected and after a few tests they discovered that I had Stage Two colon cancer. The good news I had surgery the cancer is gone and now I still do Infrared Saunas at Beauty-Full Spa and I have a great family doctor. *Results may vary person to person.
My brother purchased an infrared sauna (FIR) and they used it frequently for the first 3 months. The last time I was at his home it was full of old clothes. Pretty expensive closet! I just rent time at Beauty-Full Spa when I feel I am in need and took a trip to Hawaii with my savings! *Results may vary person to person.
What I like about the Infrared Sauna at Beauty-Full Spa is that is has no glues, it was made 10 years ago when they were built to last and for a specific reason. Now, like in all things that become popular, the manufacturers are cutting corners and you no long know what it is your getting. They all look the same, but their not. I looked into purchasing one, however, found it much cheaper to just go the Beauty-Full Spa when the need arises. Over the years I have saved several thousand dollars and my money wasn't tide up in a box in the bedroom used infrequently. Beauty-Full Spa has knowledge that they share and they really care about their customers. *Results may vary person to person.
I use the Infrared Sauna at Beauty-Full Spa to promote the oxygenation of body tissues to reduce the opportuntiy of my cancer returning. I lost 2/3's of my right lung to cancer three years ago and now do preventative things to reduced the opportunity of it returning. Along with a maintenance dose of 60 drops a day of Aerobic Oxygen I seem to have kept the cancer cells locked up. It doesn't matter how you got the cancer, it only matters that you do not allow it to sideline you at the game of life. The staff at Beauty-Full Spa is very encouraging and I like coming here. *Results may vary person to person.
I was asked and I am happy to inform you that at Beauty-Full Spa they do their very best to help you improve your health. They have introduced me to so many helpful techniques that improved my weight control, and depression. Check them out as the Infrared Dry Sauna works really well as part of an overall method to improve on one's lifestyle. *Results may vary person to person.
