What To Expect
In our Sauna Dome, you simply lie back as a dome-shaped far-infrared heater gently warms your body from the inside out, promoting an array of health benefits while you rest comfortably (your head remains outside the dome in cool air).
This contact-free, non-invasive treatment is both gentle and powerful, raising your core body temperature to stimulate natural detoxification, metabolism, skin rejuvenation, and more.
The result is a deeply cleansing sweat and profound relaxation.

How It Works
Far-Infrared Technology
Our Sauna Dome utilizes specialized far-infrared (FIR) rays, an electromagnetic energy precisely tuned to the human body, effectively penetrating beneath the skin's surface to stimulate deep cellular healing.
Unlike traditional saunas, the dome directly warms your body rather than the surrounding air, making it comfortable even for those sensitive to heat or claustrophobic, as your head remains outside the dome.
The far-infrared heat gently raises your core temperature, activating a powerful yet soothing sweat that naturally eliminates toxins and heavy metals, enhances circulation, boosts immunity, and aids muscle recovery.
This therapeutic heat is burning up to 600 calories per session and leaving you refreshed and revitalized without feeling overheated.
Health & Wellness Benefits
Deep Detoxification and Cleansing
Far-infrared therapy in our Sauna Dome deeply detoxifies your body by inducing intense sweating to effectively eliminate heavy metals and toxins, such as aluminum, arsenic, lead, and cadmium.
This powerful detoxification provides a full-body cleanse from within, helping to reset your system after exposure to pollutants, stress, or poor diet.
Regular sessions promote clearer skin, reduce bloating, boost immunity, and enhance overall vitality and wellness.
Metabolic Boost and Calorie Burn
One of the remarkable effects of an intense infrared dome session is its metabolic impact. As your core temperature rises, your heart rate increases – almost as if you were exercising gently while lying down.
This “passive cardio” effect means your body is burning calories to cool itself. In fact, a single 30-minute session can burn up to 600 calories, equivalent to a long jog or ~20 km run in terms of sweat and energy expenditure.
This makes the Sauna Dome a powerful adjunct for weight management and fitness. It’s not a replacement for exercise, but it can complement your routine by boosting circulation and metabolism.
The thermal effect may also slightly increase your basal metabolic rate, helping your body to continue burning calories at an elevated rate for a short period after the session.
Clients aiming for slimming or weight loss appreciate that infrared therapy can help break a sweat and burn fat in a relaxing way.
Additionally, FIR heat has been noted to assist in reducing the appearance of cellulite by improving circulation to subcutaneous fat tissue.
If you’re looking to jumpstart your metabolism or support a weight loss program, regular infrared dome sessions can be a gentle yet effective tool in your arsenal.
Fun fact: The intense sweating from the dome not only burns calories but also helps balance water retention – many people notice they feel “leaner” and less puffy after a good infrared sweat.
Skin Health and Anti-Aging
Healthy, glowing skin is another benefit of infrared sauna therapy.
The Sauna Dome's heat stimulates circulation and collagen production in the skin. Far-infrared rays penetrate into the dermis layer, warming and activating skin cells including fibroblasts – the cells responsible for producing collagen and elastin.
As a result, sessions can lead to improvements in skin tone, elasticity, and overall complexion.
Deep sweating also helps to purge impurities from the skin (like a deep cleanse from within), potentially reducing acne and giving your skin a clearer appearance.
Clinical studies on infrared sauna use have found rejuvenating effects: after a series of sessions, participants saw reductions in the appearance of wrinkles and finer lines, increases in skin hydration (up to +47% moisture), and greater elasticity in their skin.
The increased blood flow to the skin’s surface during a session imparts a natural rosy glow that can last for hours.
Over time, regular use may support a more youthful complexion, as well as assist in healing skin issues by boosting regenerative processes.
Many clients also find that infrared sessions help with conditions like eczema or psoriasis, likely due to improved circulation and the anti-inflammatory effect of gentle heat.
If you have a facial or body treatment scheduled, doing a gentle infrared session beforehand can prep your skin, opening pores and enhancing absorption of products (a tip from spa professionals!).
Overall, the Sauna Dome is a wonderful therapy for skin wellness, helping you achieve that fresh, vibrant look from the inside out.
Stress Relief, Sleep and Relaxation
The Sauna Dome is as much about relaxation as it is about physical benefits.
The warmth of infratherapy has a soothing effect on the nervous system – it encourages your body to shift into a parasympathetic (“rest and digest”) state, which is essential for stress relief.
Inside the dome, as you begin to perspire gently, your body also starts releasing endorphins, which are natural “feel-good” hormones.
Clients often describe an infrared session as deeply calming, with a mood uplift similar to the pleasant tranquility after moderate exercise or a massage.
The heat eases muscle tension and promotes a sense of comfort and coziness, which can be very therapeutic in times of high stress or anxiety.
Many people find that they emerge from the dome in a lighter, more positive mood, with mental stress melted away.
This treatment can also help improve sleep quality – by the mechanism of “temperature manipulation” and relaxation, it may help reset your circadian rhythm for better sleep.
Using the dome in the late afternoon or early evening, for example, might promote deeper sleep at night as your body cools down afterwards and signals rest.
Some research even suggests that whole-body heat therapies like infrared sauna can have a positive impact on mood disorders when used appropriately, likely due to these neuroendocrine effects.
At the very least, you can expect to unwind and de-stress during your session – it’s a perfect opportunity to disconnect from daily worries, meditate, or simply enjoy the gentle heat.
In our busy lives, the Sauna Dome offers a sanctuary of peace and relaxation, helping you recharge not just physically but mentally.
Improved Circulation and Muscle Recovery
Another important benefit of the Sauna Dome is its effect on your circulation and muscles.
Far-infrared heat causes blood vessels to dilate (widen), which boosts blood flow throughout the body. This improved circulation brings more oxygen and nutrients to muscles and joints, helping to soothe aches and facilitate recovery.
Athletes and those with active lifestyles love using the infrared dome as a tool for muscle relaxation and recovery.
After strenuous exercise, a session can help flush out lactic acid and reduce muscle soreness, leading to faster recovery times.
In fact, some sports professionals use infrared therapy both before and after workouts: beforehand to warm up muscles and increase flexibility (potentially reducing risk of injury), and afterward to relax tight areas and speed up healing of micro-tears.
The heat also has an analgesic (pain-relieving) effect by promoting the release of endorphins and relaxing muscle spasms.
Many of our clients with chronic muscle tension or joint stiffness (such as back pain, neck/shoulder tension, or arthritis) report significant relief after a dome session – the deep warmth penetrates into joints and soft tissues, acting like a thermal massage from within.
Furthermore, enhanced circulation contributes to cardiovascular health by gently increasing heart rate and exercising the blood vessels.
It’s a safe cardiovascular workout for those who might not be able to perform intense exercise, under proper guidance.
Whether you are an athlete looking to optimize performance or someone seeking relief from everyday muscle aches, the Sauna Dome can be a powerful therapeutic aid.
With regular use, it can help keep your muscles supple, your joints mobile, and your overall circulation in top shape.
Safety and Contraindications
Your safety is our priority. Sauna Dome therapy is generally very safe and well-tolerated, but there are some contraindications and precautions to be aware of.
If in Doubt, Ask
If you have any medical condition and are unsure whether an infrared sauna session is safe for you, please ask us or consult your primary care physician.
The Sauna Dome is intended for general wellness and is not a medical treatment, so it’s better to err on the side of caution for any serious health issues.
We are committed to ensuring the therapy is safe and comfortable for every client. Our staff are trained in the proper use of the dome and will monitor you during intense sessions.
Should you feel uncomfortable at any point, we can pause or end the session immediately. Your well-being comes first.
Pregnancy
If you are pregnant, infrared sauna sessions are contraindicated.
We do not recommend using the Sauna Dome during pregnancy, as raising core body temperature is not advised for pregnant individuals.
It’s best to wait until after giving birth to enjoy this treatment.
Serious Medical Conditions
Individuals with serious or unmanaged health conditions should consult a physician before using infrared sauna therapy.
This includes conditions such as severe heart disease, uncontrolled high blood pressure, advanced kidney or liver disease, active cancer, or any acute illness with fever.
In particular, if you are on medications or treatments that affect your body’s ability to handle heat (for example, certain blood pressure medications or chemotherapy), get medical clearance first.
Heat Sensitivity and Dehydration
If you have a condition that makes you extremely sensitive to heat or if you are currently dehydrated, you should use caution.
We can always opt for a gentle session or shorten the duration in such cases.
It’s important to come to your session well-hydrated and not on an empty stomach (have a light snack if needed to avoid lightheadedness).
Avoid alcohol or heavy meals before your session.
Open Wounds or Acute Injury
Do not use the Sauna Dome over any large open wounds, and if you have a fresh injury that is in an acute inflammation stage (swelling, heat, redness), it might be best to wait until it stabilizes.
While infrared can aid healing, we recommend following your doctor’s advice for acute injuries.
