Natural Pain Relief with a Sauna

Pain is a part of life that is sometimes unavoidable. There are several things that can cause pain — expected and unexpected. When pain hits, knowing that you have a form of natural pain relief nearby is wonderful. This is one of the many sauna health benefits you can experience when you get an in-home sauna to enjoy anytime. Natural pain relief with a sauna is something you don’t want to miss out on.

Impressive Infrared Saunas

What is an infrared sauna?

One of the amazing saunas we have available at Maximum Comfort Pool & Spa is the selection of Finnleo® far-infrared saunas. The infrared sauna is not your typical sauna. An infrared sauna directly warms the body rather than the air surrounding the body. To accomplish this, the infrared sauna has electromagnetic lamps that get your body heated and prepared for a detoxing sweat. This type of sauna sends 80% of its heat directly to your body, while only 20% of the warmth affects the surrounding air.

How does it help with pain?

The heat of the infrared sauna is very therapeutic. Because the heat is going directly to you, you warm up and begin to sweat quickly. This process increases the speed of the oxygen flowing through your bloodstream and assists your circulatory system. Your muscles and joints are penetrated with the warmth as well. Natural pain relief is then a result, all within just a few minutes of stepping into the sauna. 

Textbook Traditional Saunas

What is a traditional sauna?

Another sauna to consider is the Finnleo traditional sauna. The traditional sauna is heated by pouring water over heated stones. The steam you mentally picture when you hear the word sauna is what a traditional sauna provides. 

If you have a space to fit a sauna into, these awesome traditional saunas can be custom  built to meet your needs. One of our knowledgeable staff would be happy to talk with you about this. There are options for sauna installation anywhere in your home or outside your home. 

How does it help with pain?

A traditional sauna heats the air surrounding you as you sit and de-stress. This process relaxes your mind and your muscles. The natural healing process begins as the body warms up. A sauna session in any type of sauna speeds up the circulation of oxygen in your blood. Your aching body begins to heal itself as you just sit and relax. 

Innovative Infra-Saunas

The final option we carry is the Finnleo infra-sauna. This unique machine gives you the option to use infrared sauna features or traditional features — customizable to the person using it. Variety is a fantastic reason to consider this option. 

Sitting in a sauna is a wonderful way to ease aches and pains naturally. Chronic pain can be relieved on a daily basis. Surgery that requires physical therapy is sure to cause extra stress on your joints and muscles. Extra sauna time during these times is medicinal as well. 

A sauna is a great item to have on hand for so many reasons. Natural pain relief with a sauna is readily available. Stop by one of our convenient locations to choose the sauna you deserve.
