Experience the research-supported health benefits of Sauna Therapy

Not only are saunas relaxing, there are many studies confirming the physical, mental, and emotional health promoting benefits of regular and consistent sauna therapy. From conditions such as chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, and chronic pain, to cardiovascular issues, depression, and anxiety, repeated use of sauna therapy has shown significant reduction in problematic symptoms, increased quality of life, and general well-being.

Additionally, our one-person infrared sauna has added benefits of heat activated Himalayan salt and chromotherapy. The negative ions of the salt are believed to enhance mood and air quality, while Chormotherapy is reported to decrease inflammation, improve sleep, and aid in recovery from medical procedures.

If you'd like to see for yourself, we invite you to schedule your sauna therapy session with us. Our infrared Himalayan salt cave sauna is located in a private room, where you'll have time and space just for you. Time is reserved just for you upon scheduling your appointment. We provide clean towels, body wipes (for after), and a soothing salt scrub for your hands.

Whether taking a break in your busy day, or ending your day with health-promoting relaxation, we encourage you to take advantage of sauna therapy at The Peaceful Place. We are not a spa, but a holistic minded healing place. Unlike spas, there is no membership required. You pay per appointment, so no stress about getting your money's worth in any given month.

The Science Supporting Sauna Therapy

"There is considerable evidence to suggest that sauna bathing can induce profound physiological effects. Intense short-term heat exposure elevates skin temperature and core body temperature and activates thermoregulatory pathways via the hypothalamus and CNS (central nervous system) leading to activation of the autonomic nervous system. The activation of the sympathetic nervous system, hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal hormonal axis, and the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system leads to well-documented cardiovascular effects with increased heart rate, skin blood flow, cardiac output, and sweating."

National Institute of Health

"Beyond pleasure and relaxation, emerging evidence suggests that sauna bathing has several health benefits, which include reduction in the risk of vascular diseases such as high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease (CVD), stroke, and neurocognitive diseases; nonvascular conditions such as pulmonary diseases including common flu; mortality; treatment of specific skin conditions; as well as pain in conditions such as rheumatic diseases and headache."

Mayo Clinic

"Researchers have looked at the effects of infrared sauna therapy on mildly depressed patients with fatigue, appetite loss, and mental complaints. They found that sauna treatment significantly increased their appetite and reduced their mental complaints."

Science Daily

"Several studies have shown that regular sauna use lowers levels of cortisol, your body’s main stress hormone.

In one study, researchers found that using a sauna can reduce both state and trait anxiety.

And other research shows that sweating increases relaxation, and reduces feelings of frustration and anxiety."

Helpful Information

How long are appointments? Research shows that 20 minutes inside the IR sauna allows for maximum benefit. Time inside the sauna should not exceed 30 minutes. Beginners should only use the sauna for 10-15 minutes for the first 2-3 sessions. Your total appointment time in the suite will be 45 minutes, allowing adequate time for you to settle in and clean up.

How often are appointments? Though infrared saunas are safe to use multiple times per week, the suggested use of 3-4 times per week is more than sufficient for health benefits. If you are new to infrared saunas, start with 1-2 sessions per week for 10 to 15 minutes each. Slowly build to regular use.

Appointments are for individuals, and are in a private suite. The suite is reserved for you during your appointment time. If you are late starting your session, your appointment must still end on time. For example, if your appointment is at 2:00, but you don't arrive until 2:10, you must still exit the suite by 2:45. No exceptions.
