Why should I sweat?
Each day we are exposed to hundreds of chemicals in the air we breathe, the things we touch, the products we put on our skin, and the food we eat and drink. Not all chemicals can be processed by the body adequately, nor can an endless amount or number of them be handled at the same time. Some are even poisonous to the point of damaging critical parts that are supposed to detoxify our bodies, like liver enzymes. By coming to 3 Degrees each week our infrared saunas are able to help your body get rid of these destructive toxins.
What is the difference between infrared and traditional saunas?
Infrared heat is a soothing and gentle way to heat the body. Traditional saunas operate in excess of 180 degrees F making the experience extremely hot and claustrophobic. Infrared saunas have the benefit of being effective at a much more comfortable and tolerable temperature between 125 degrees to 158 degrees F.
Traditional saunas only heat the air around you whereas infrared saunas penetrate your skin giving you a deep detoxifying sweat. Because infrared heat penetrates deep into tissues versus just the skin’s surface infrared is 7 times more effective than traditional saunas at detoxifying the body. By raising the body’s core temperature by 3 Degrees, infrared saunas can produce a sweat composed of 20% toxins verse the 3% with a traditional sauna.

What should I wear?
Some individuals prefer to sweat with little to no clothing, However, it is safe to use the sauna in a bathing suit or workout attire. We provide a wrap and there are extra towels provided for your session. We do require that you have at least one towel between you and the sauna bench while you sauna. After your session, your cool-down period may involve some residual sweating.
How often should I come?
The more the better! Based on your individual health and wellness goals, we recommend at least two times a week. For greater impact, 3-4 times a week is recommended. WE suggest you try sessions immediately following a workout /fitness program to see the best results.
