CLEAR LIGHT SAUNAS


​One of the most important tools in my  my personal daily health regime is the dry, infrared sauna. 

Much more effective than the steam room, infrared saunas detoxify the body, purify the skin and aid in weight loss - you burn an average of 200 calories every 30 minutes. Infrared is the most effective of all the dry saunas.
 
Clearlight changes the sauna game.  

Clearlight saunas are green so they use about as much electricity as a hairdryer.

HEALTH BENEFITS / CLINICAL STUDIES:

Weight Loss: 
A Canadian Journal of Diabetes study found that infrared sauna therapy can induce weight loss and reduce waist circumference
  • Especially for patients forced to be sedentary due to medical conditions
  • Results within a 3 month period
  • A Journal of the American College of Cardiology study found that a 30 minute infrared sauna weight loss session can burn up to 600 calories
  • During a weight loss session the body’s core temperature increases
  • Body works harder to cool itself 
  • Study found that sauna therapy increases heart rate, metabolic rate, and cardiac output
  • Causes the body to burn more calories
  • Blood flow rises from a normal 5-7 quarts per minute to up to 13 quarts per minute
  • Equal to a passive cardio workout
SOURCES: Canadian Journal of Diabetes, Journal of the American College of Cardiology

Pain And Inflammation: 
A University of Southern California study found that infrared sauna wavelengths penetrate the body to create heat
  • Increases blood flow to the muscles
  • Delivers more concentrated oxygen, which creates more energy to heal
  • A Journal of Internal Medicine study showed that chronic pain patients experienced a significant reduction in pain levels (nearly 70%) after the first session of infrared sauna therapy
  • Pain scores also decreased significantly and remained low throughout the observation period
  • A NASA study measuring infrared heat determined that LED technology allows for deep penetration of tissue and increased cell growth from the inside
  • Sunlighten’s mPulse series is the only sauna on the market that offers LED-based near infrared heat at this proven level 
  • A Department of Dermatology and Institute of Medical Research showed that use of near-infrared heat therapy helped the production of white blood cells to alleviate inflammation and reduce swelling
  • Two key factors in easing bodily pain
SOURCES: Department of Dermatology and Institute of Medical Research, Journal of Internal Medicine, University of Southern California

Lowers Blood Pressure: 
A University of Missouri, Kansas City study found mPulse saunas to be clinically proven to lower diastolic and systolic blood pressure
  • Via 3 weekly 30 minute sessions
  • Infrared sauna therapy dilated blood vessel
  • Reduced volume of blood vessel inner-lining
  • Increased circulation to promote healthier blood pressure  
  • A Journal of Cardiology study found that infrared sauna therapy reduced the cardiac size in chronic heart failure patients
  • Repeated treatments improved impaired blood cells and blood vessel function for patients with high blood pressure, diabetes, and cholesterol
  • No dangerous side effects were reported in the studies
SOURCES:  University of Missouri, Kansas City; Journal of Cardiology

​
When using the sauna, remember the following tips:
Put an Electrolyte packet in your water and sip while in sauna 
Put vitamin E oil on the ends of your hair to keep from drying out
Do 20 minutes in, 5 minutes out. 2 or 3 rounds is plenty.

SUNLIGHTEN SAUNAS REVIEWS: WELLNESS EXPERTS
Picture
*In Bob Greene’s newest cutting-edge program, 20 Years Younger, he offers four cornerstones for looking and feeling your best – nutrition, exercise, skin care and sleep.  He recognizes that Sunlighten saunas can enhance all four of these pillars for a customer.  “Sunlighten™ infrared saunas are an excellent enhancement to the 20 Years Younger pillars.  They can be an effective tool for detoxification, weight loss, skin rejuvenation, relaxation and post workout muscle recovery.”  Bob recommends Sunlighten™ infrared saunas because of their superior, clinically-tested technology.

Picture
Dr. Mark Hyman's book, Ultrametabolism, addresses the use of an infrared sauna as a means of practicing active relaxation to reduce stress and lose weight.  For home use, he recommends purchasing an infrared sauna from Sunlighten™. Dr. Hyman, a Sunlighten™ customer, owns a Sunlighten sauna and recommends Sunlighten™ to his patients.

“Sunlighten saunas represent the next wave of advanced, therapeutic cleansing to improve overall health and longevity.  Regular infrared sauna therapy can help with detoxification, weight loss, and pain relief.  I recommend Sunlighten saunas because of their near infrared LED technology shown to improve cell health, immunity and skin rejuvenation.  So get ready, set & SWEAT your way to healthy living!” 
- Dr. Ann Louise Gittleman – New York Times best-selling author of 30 wellness books including The Fat Flush Plan

In today’s world where we are all exposed to toxins in the air and water, as well as through medications, vaccines and dental work, it is vital to integrate a detoxification regimen into one’s daily life. Whereas chelation therapy can be very expensive, difficult to administer and cause negative side effects, Sunlighten™ are a non-toxic, no side-effect way of ridding the body of harmful pollutants, especially heavy metals.

Detoxification is important because it strengthens the body’s immune system and helps the body’s biochemical processes function efficiently so that we are better able to digest the nutrients in our foods. Detoxification has also been shown to be helpful with cholitis, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, auto-immune disease, immune deficiency states, autism, ADD and ADHD.

Sunlighten™ saunas are different than regular saunas because the Far infrared light waves penetrate facial and muscular tissue, helping to rid the body of toxins that are stored in deeper layers than the simple sweat glands that are activated in a conventional sauna. In addition, the cardiovascular cleansing properties of the Sunlighten saunas allow the circulatory system to have increased circulation and oxygenation while lowering blood pressure and cholesterol.”
- Dr. Rachel West – As a family practitioner, she specializes in chronic disease, chronic pain states, women’s health and childhood Autism.

Jordan Rubin, founder of Garden of Life, owns and recommends Sunlighten for a healthier lifestyle. Jordan founded Garden of Life, Inc. in 2000 after overcoming an incurable disease - one that nearly ended his life. When both conventional and alternative medicines failed, he took matters into his own hands. Today, he credits his survival and vibrant health to an enduring faith in God and a revolutionary health program he calls The Maker's Diet.
