What is an Infrared Sauna?
Visible red light is what can be seen by our eyes, infrared is light that is unseen. Infrared literally means "below red". Infrared is the healthy healing rays that come from the sun. The right amount of infrared light helps stem cells grow fast and strong. Everything in nature needs infrared light to live. We do not get enough of it in our modern day lifestyle. Come remedy that in our Sunlighten Infrared Sauna.
​
Infrared Saunas heat up the actual body instead of heating the air around you.​ Sunlighten has dialed in their wavelengths to specific infrared and red light wavelengths. They have focused on science and studies that show these selected wavelengths are the best for optimal well being, vitality and longevity. Our Sunlighten mPulse Infrared Sauna incorporates 4 technologies: Far Infrared, Mid Infrared, Near Infrared, and Red Light.
​
Far Infrared is absorbed by water cells and activates the sweat glands providing a deep detoxifying sweat. Sunlighten's Far Infrared is clinically proven to raise the body temperature by 3 degrees. It energizes and revitalizes without a draining heat.
​
Mid Infrared also activates water cells and does so at a lowest dose to produce helpful benefits to the body. It contributes heat enhancing the sauna experience and benefits.
​
Near Infrared is delivered in LED and activates mitochondria and regenerates cells. It reduces inflammation and pain and aids in faster wound healing. Near infrared also increases collagen and elastin.
​
Red Light is delivered in LED. It contributes to all the benefits of Near Infrared but has the added benefit of aiding in fat reduction.
​
The model sauna at Emerald Elephant is currently the only sauna in the world with LED Near Infrared and LED Red Light as of June 2025.
