This Take on the Traditional Sauna Boasts Impressive Benefits

Amanda Riley, owner of Blissful Balance, first introduced an infrared sauna to her studio last November. When asked what it helps with, Riley’s response is, “Pretty much everything.”

This revolutionary tool is most often used as a means of detoxification, weight loss, pain management and relaxation, according to Riley. Unlike a conventional sauna, which heats up the air causing you to sweat, infrared light penetrates your body, opening up the cells to pour out toxins. In fact, it’s 20 to 40 percent more effective at detoxing than your average sauna, Riley says.
 
The infrared sauna has been shown to reduce wrinkles and heal wounds. A beautiful side perk, of course, Riley says, is the relaxation.
