The truth about infrared sauna therapy
The therapy was pioneered by NASA, who found infrared light helped plants grow in space. Extensive research in the early 1980’s led to the realization that infrared light treatments would be the perfect way to maintain cardiovascular conditioning in US astronauts for the duration of long space flights. Recently, they used this technology to treat patients suffering from the painful side effects of radiation and chemotherapy treatments. They discovered a phenomenal result—the infrared therapy was working as a healing agent, with no side effects! Since then, it’s been used by pain institutes around the country as a form of pain treatment, and the FDA has approved its therapeutic use.

So What is Infrared?
Nature brings us infrared light. It’s the healthy, healing rays that come from the sun. You’ve felt infrared your entire life. When you sit next to a fire or feel the warmth of the sun on your skin. Infrared also helps plants bloom and just the right amount helps stems grow fast and strong.
Infrared’s healing rays are felt on our skin as warmth, and are absorbed by our bodies to help them detoxify, relax, improve circulation, recover faster, sleep better, age well and help us feel good. The proof of this activity in our body is evidenced in the increase in core body temperature that happens during a 30-minute infrared sauna session. Sunlighten’s saunas are clinically-proven to raise core body temperature 3 degrees, which unleashes the most benefits to our health.
What is Near, Mid & Far Infrared Heating Technology?
Near Infrared (NIR)
for Anti-Aging, Skin Health, Muscle Recovery
GENERAL FACTS
-
Closest to visible light, acts more like it (like cousins)
-
Absorbed at cellular level by mitochondria
-
Shortest wavelength (700 to 1200 nanometers)
-
Delivers most energy (like tiny dogs)
-
Photobiomodulation/ low level light therapy (LLLT) used in cosmetic and healing devices
-
Triggers plants to use chlorophyll to convert light into tissue
​
SUNLIGHTEN NIR
* Energizes cells best with precise 880nm wavelength, scientifically proven to:
-
Recharge cell mitochondria

Mid Infrared (MIR)
for Heart Health, Circulation, Pain Relief, Muscle Recovery
GENERAL FACTS
-
The "middle child" lives between near and far
-
Mid-range wavelength (1.4 to 7 microns)
-
Hardest IR to reproduce; used for sensory tools in various industries
SUNLIGHTEN MIR
-
Only our 3 in 1 heater delivers MIR at peak wavelengths (5 to 6.7 microns) • Made possible through our patented heating technology
-
3 distinct heating elements heat MIR layer to needed temp
Far Infrared (FIR)
for Detoxification, Heart Health, Weight Loss, Immunity, General Wellness, Relaxation, Muscle Recovery
GENERAL FACTS
-
The "independent oldest kid" lives farthest from visible light
-
Longest wavelength (7-14 microns)
-
Absorbed at the cellular level by water molecules
-
Doesn’t warm the air, instead sends energy into objects
-
Experienced as gentle, radiant heat
-
Safely, gently improves health at the cellular level
-
Human bodies also emit FIR energy, used in healing since ancient times (ex. Reiki)
SUNLIGHTEN FIR
-
Only FIR heater clinically proven to raise core body temp 3°
-
Stimulates sweat glands, deep detoxifying sweat
-
Energizes and revitalizes, not draining heat
