What is a full spectrum sauna?

A full spectrum sauna is the most advanced type of infrared sauna available. It is equipped with heaters that produce all three wavelengths on the infrared spectrum: near (NIR), mid (MIR), and far (FIR). This allows you to receive a more complete and targeted range of therapeutic benefits in every single session compared to saunas that only offer a single wavelength.

What benefits will I actually feel from each wavelength?

Think of full spectrum as a 3-in-1 therapy session. Near-infrared (NIR) works on the surface, helping to rejuvenate your skin for a smoother, more youthful glow. Mid-infrared (MIR) reaches your muscles and soft tissue, helping to ease soreness and speed up recovery after a workout. Far-infrared (FIR) penetrates the deepest, helping you release toxins through a deep sweat and providing a profound sense of relaxation and calm.

Far infrared vs. full spectrum sauna: which is better?

A far infrared sauna is fantastic and provides the core benefits of deep heat and detoxification that infrared technology is famous for. However, a full spectrum sauna is generally considered a more advanced option because it includes the additional, targeted benefits of near and mid-infrared. If you want the maximum therapeutic range, full spectrum is the better choice.

Are full spectrum saunas also low-EMF?

Yes. We believe you shouldn't have to choose between comprehensive benefits and peace of mind. Our premium full spectrum models are also engineered to be low-EMF, using advanced technology to minimize electromagnetic fields. This ensures you get the best and safest experience possible.
