CYL Sauna Studio is a luxury infrared sauna studio where clients can sweat for the health of it in their own personal infrared sauna pod within the tranquility of a private sauna suite. Sweating is our body’s natural way to heal and stay healthy. Each sauna pod is designed for the deepest, most detoxifying sweat possible using infrared energy (heat). What is infrared heat?
Infrared light is part of the sun’s invisible spectrum that penetrates human tissue. Infrared heat therapy uses infrared light characteristics to heat your body’s core temperature rather than just the air surrounding you. As your core temperature begins to increase, your body will induce sweating. This increases your blood flow and heart rate, much like a moderate exercise routine.
