Infrared Sauna Therapy

Why choose infrared sauna therapy in a clinical setting?

Unlike infrared sauna sessions offered at spas, gyms, or wellness studios, our sessions are provided within a naturopathic clinical setting.

Each visit includes:

• ND assessment and safety screening

• individualized session recommendations

• clinical oversight throughout the appointment

• guidance on temperature, timing, hydration, and recovery

This allows your session to be tailored to your health goals and medical history.

This is especially helpful for individuals seeking support as part of a broader health plan or those who are new to naturopathic care.

What is infrared sauna therapy?

Infrared sauna therapy uses infrared heat to gently warm the body.

Traditional saunas heat the surrounding air first, while infrared heat is designed to warm the body more directly through radiant heat.

Our clinic uses the Clearlight Sanctuary 1 infrared sauna, a full-spectrum infrared sauna designed for individual use in a comfortable and private setting.

Because the temperature is generally lower than a traditional sauna, many patients find the experience easier to tolerate.

Sessions also include time for a cool-down period before returning to your day.

How infrared sauna therapy may support your care

Infrared sauna therapy may be incorporated into naturopathic care plans to support:

• relaxation and stress response

• circulation and vascular function

• physical recovery and muscle comfort

• post-exercise recovery

• general restorative support

Recommendations are individualized based on your health goals, medical history, and tolerance.

Where clinically appropriate, your ND may recommend a specific temperature range, session duration, and frequency.

Is infrared sauna therapy right for you?

Infrared sauna therapy may be appropriate for individuals looking for supportive care related to:

• physical recovery

• muscle tension or stiffness

• stress management

• restorative support

• exercise recovery

You do not need to be an existing naturopathic patient to get started.

If you are new to naturopathic care, the Discovery appointment is designed to help assess whether infrared sauna therapy is appropriate for you.

Your naturopathic doctor will determine whether this service is appropriate based on your health history and treatment goals.

Your safety comes first

Before beginning treatment, we complete an ND assessment and review any relevant health considerations.

This may include discussion of:

• blood pressure concerns

• cardiovascular history

• heat sensitivity

• dizziness or orthostatic symptoms

• hydration needs

• current medications

• pregnancy status where relevant

Treatment recommendations are always individualized.
