Revitalize your body with infrared sauna therapy at Westhaven Aesthetics. Our Sunlighten sauna helps reduce stress, improve circulation, relieve joint pain, promote detoxification, and support weight loss. Using advanced SoloCarbon technology, it delivers deep heat to target inflammation, pain, and skin conditions, offering holistic relief for relaxation and healing.
Heat your body from within to promote healing
Infrared sauna therapy uses infrared light to gently heat the body from within, promoting deep tissue warmth without heating the air around you. Unlike traditional saunas, it penetrates deeper to improve circulation, detoxify the body, relieve pain, and enhance skin health. At Westhaven Aesthetics, we use Sunlighten saunas, which deliver near, mid, and far-infrared wavelengths, offering personalized wellness benefits like stress reduction, muscle recovery, and improved sleep. This non-invasive treatment supports overall well-being and is ideal for those seeking a natural approach to healing and relaxation.
Infrared sauna therapy treats:
- Chronic pain and inflammation
- Muscle soreness and joint stiffness
- Stress and anxiety
- Poor circulation and detoxification
- Skin conditions like eczema and acne
- Sleep disorders and insomnia
- Weight and metabolism issues
How does the Sunlighten sauna work?
The Sunlighten sauna uses SoloCarbon infrared technology, which emits near, mid, and far-infrared wavelengths. These wavelengths penetrate the body’s tissues up to 1.5 inches deep, promoting cellular repair and detoxification. The infrared light heats the body directly, stimulating sweat production, increasing circulation, and promoting muscle recovery without overly heating the surrounding air. This deep heating effect also aids in pain relief, skin rejuvenation, and improved cardiovascular health by enhancing the body’s natural healing mechanisms at a cellular level. Sunlighten promotes overall wellness from within.

What happens during the session?
When you enter the sauna, you’ll sit or lie in a comfortable, relaxed position. The Sunlighten sauna will gradually increase in temperature as it emits infrared light. You will begin to feel warm as the heat penetrates deep into your tissues, stimulating circulation and sweat production. You can adjust the settings to your preference, and it’s common to feel relaxed or even meditative during the session. Always hydrate well before, during, and after to support the detox process.
How long is an infrared sauna session?
Sessions typically last 30 to 45 minutes. This allows enough time for the infrared heat to penetrate your body and activate the therapeutic benefits, such as detoxification, pain relief, and stress reduction. However, first-time users might start with shorter sessions and gradually increase the time as they become more accustomed to the heat.
What should I wear during the session?
Wear light, breathable clothing or opt for minimal clothing to allow maximum skin exposure to the infrared light. Many people choose to wear a towel or swimsuit. Since infrared heat warms your body directly, what you wear can affect how much of the therapy your skin absorbs.
How often should I use the infrared sauna?
For general wellness, two to three sessions per week are recommended. If you’re targeting specific concerns like chronic pain, skin issues, or detoxification, more frequent sessions, up to daily, might be beneficial. Always start slowly and listen to how your body responds.
