Historically saunas have been used for detoxification for centuries in a variety of cultures. Sauna Therapy has long been recommended by practitioners in alternative health circles because of its known power to remove heavy metals and other environmental toxicants.

Traditional saunas use a heat source to heat the air, and often include steam to create humidity as well. Traditional saunas heat the air to a point where it initiates the body's natural cooling process. This means blood comes to the surface of the skin and opens the pores.

• 150-210°F
• Surface heat
• Sweat happens at higher temperatures
• Extreme heat, shorter sessions
• More humidity

Infrared saunas emit light waves that penetrate the body to stimulate the health benefits from within at a cellular level.

•  110-140°F
• Deep, penetrating heat
• More sweat at lower temperatures

The Sunlighten mPulse Smart Sauna is unique among infrared saunas because it is the only one with advanced 3 in 1 heating technology, integrated with red light, that allows for the customization of red light/near, mid and far wavelengths to optimize specific health benefits. 

The heating technology developed by Sunlighten is one of a kind. Each wavelength requires a different complex equation involving surface size, surface temperature and material. Sunlighten's patented heaters allow for all three wavelengths (near, mid & far), plus red light to be recreated in one place. The programs direct the heaters to emit the optimal blend of infrared wavelengths - based on 56 data points from 37 studies of how infrared interacts with the body - to achieve the desired result.

Chromotherapy is the science of using colors to adjust the body vibrations to frequencies that result in health and harmony. It works on various energy points to help balance your body via the full spectrum of visible light. Each color possesses frequencies of a specific vibration and each vibration is related to different physical symptoms.

Light is responsible for turning on the brain and the body, entering the body through the eyes and skin. This light triggers the hypothalamus, which regulates all life-sustaining bodily functions, the autonomic nervous system, endocrine system, and the pituitary.

With regular infrared sauna color therapy, you can help balance your body's energy wherever it is lacking. Chromotherapy sauna benefits include physical, emotional, mental and spiritual healing. Sunlighten saunas provide combinations of the seven-color spectrum to include 16 colors, 4 color-changing modes and 4 brightness/intensity settings. The lights are soft and gentle and can be controlled by a remote.
