What You Should Know About Infrared Sauna

April 22, 2018 By lizinlosangeles Leave a Comment Filed Under: Lifestyle, Los Angeles, Wellness

What You Should Know About Infrared Sauna, a blog post by Liz in Los Angeles, Los Angeles Lifestyle Blogger: an image of two women at sauna

I was invited by SaunaBar to get my infrared sauna on. I wanted to share the experience with you. So, what you should know about an infrared sauna?

What You Should Know About Infrared Sauna

Infrared Sauna in Los Angeles

Infrared saunas and cryotherapy are the newest wellness ways to detox and lose weight. It is a type of sauna that uses heat and infrared light to help detoxify the body. Cryotherapy is a treatment that involves the use of freezing temperatures to detoxify the body. If you are opposed to the cold like I am, infrared sauna since it’s heated.  Infrared saunas use wavelength light to create heat so you can get your sweat on to detox. The benefits are detoxification, stimulation of collagen, better sleep, reduction of pain, anxiety, and stress. Although, I’m not sure if it is back by science.

Click here to find out why the best time to try the infrared sauna is when you’re on a juice cleanse.

SaunaBar
Infrared Sauna in Los Angeles

SaunaBar is located in Brentwood Gardens, which is surrounded by tons of great restaurants in case you work up an appetite after the services. There’s plenty of parking too, which so unusual for LA. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. Most importantly, it is a very clean spa.

I tried the Lymphatic Massage + SaunaPod Combo service. I started off with the lymphatic massage, which is a compression suit that wakes up the lymphatic system and kickstarts the detoxification process before the SaunaPod. The lymphatic massage lasts 25 minutes. I was sprayed with aromatherapy (I choose lavender) and given an eye pillow to relax. It was an interesting experience.

Then I was off to the SaunaPod. I was surprised how relaxing this portion was since I’m slightly claustrophobic. The SaunaPod is like a bed lined with 440 jade stones. My head was out of the pod breathing fresh air. I was able to adjust the heat at any time.  The SaunaPod is for 45 minutes (great time to catch up on your favorite podcast or to meditate).  The first 10 minutes is just relaxing. After that, that’s when the detoxication kicked in.

For both services, I wore leggings and a tee-shirt.  Socks are required for all services. Even though you’re face is not in the pod sweating, I highly suggest taking your makeup off before the services so your skin can breathe.

What you will need:
So …

Since I only tried the services once, I can’t speak to weight loss. although, I believe it will help you lose weight as long as you are following a healthy diet and working out. It will make you lose weight. However, I did feel very relaxed and less bloated after these services. I can’t wait to go back.

So have any of you guys tried infrared saunas?

With gratitude,

Liz

I know it’s Los Angeles and all but what do you think about an alternative to botox and fillers? 💉 

@empathwellnessweho is your answer to Botox alternative in Los Angeles since they specialize in the Cryo Mini Face Life aka Cryo Thermal Shock (Tshock). 

Cryo TShock is a non-invasive cold and heat treatment for skin rejuvenation, fat freezing and intensive pain relief. 

I’m totally obsessed with this Botox alternative. I love how glowing my skin was afterwards and totally looked like I got cheek fillers. I’m going back for chin and tummy reduction. I love non-invasive treatments for obvious reasons (no needles 💉 necessary).

Do you love gel or regular manicure? How about a French plant based semi gel manicure 💅?! 

Few months of gel manicure left my nails damaged. But I found the solution. @manucurist is a French clean beauty brand introducing Los Angeles to Green Flash, Manucurist’s first LED Nail Polish. The best part is that it’s super easy and gentle to remove. You can do it at the comfort of your home. 

@m.o.n.a.j of Manucurist creates super cute nail art popular in France. Los Angeles say hello to plant based semi-gel manicure 💅

You have to try the cocktail-inspired specialty drink created by @redstrawteabar at @westfieldcenturycity in Los Angeles. 

Hands done one of the best boba in Los Angeles. We choose Fancy Daisy Boba (Jasmine green tea with fresh lemon enhanced with striking natural colors from butterfly pea)  and  Green Mojito
(Special jasmine green tea mixed with mint and key lime). Both boba drinks were super refreshing on a hot day in Los Angeles.

The truth is . . . . . 

@pure_barre workouts look like they’re easy but they are actually hard. Since barre workouts target muscles in ways that aren't always used everyday. 

Love barre workouts since barre improves postural alignment, flexibility, core strength, while it’s low-impact. The barre classes are easy on my knees, which I have an issue with. 

Btw, Alyssa at @purebarreculvercity is such a gem.

So who is coming to the next class with me?

I got treated to a once in a life experience today, thanks to @popandbottle! 

@popandbottle brought a personalized café experience right to my front door. This “five minutes of peace” involved a made-on-the-spot Pop & Bottle iced latte and a puppy playtime relaxation. 

This cutest experience ever was to celebrate the launch of their new Super Concentrates. My personalized latte was absolutely delicious 🤤
