When the sun is shining and the temperatures are rising, you might think your Jacuzzi infrared sauna should be taking a holiday.
When you think of a sauna, you will most likely picture winter scenes in Finland or neighbouring countries, providing a refreshing warmth to contrast with the Scandinavian cold. You probably would never link sauna use with the warmer months, but summer is actually the perfect time to harness the power of infrared heat.
Far from being a seasonal luxury, there are a whole host of infrared sauna benefits that are particularly advantageous during the warmer months. From helping you feel fresh and clean, to boosting your mood, there are many important reasons to embrace infrared heat therapy in the summertime.
It’s true, you naturally sweat more in the summer, but the sweat induced by an infrared sauna is different. Infrared heat penetrates deeper into your body, stimulating a more profound sweat at a cellular level. This helps to eliminate a wider range of toxins, including heavy metals and environmental pollutants, which can accumulate from summer indulgences or increased outdoor exposure. It’s a deeper cleanse than simply sweating from the ambient heat.
Your sauna can help! The deep penetrating heat increases circulation and promotes collagen production, leading to clearer, softer, and healthier-looking skin. Unlike sunbathing, an infrared sauna provides these benefits without the harmful UV rays that cause sunburn, premature aging, and skin damage. Achieve that summer glow the safe way.
Struggling with intense summer heat waves? We don’t get many in the UK, so when we do have a few days of high temperatures, it can be a real struggle. Regular sauna sessions can actually help your body acclimatise to higher temperatures. By exposing your body to deliberate heat in a controlled environment, you can improve your thermoregulation, making those scorching outdoor days feel much more manageable.
Summer often brings more outdoor activities, sports, and intense workouts. Whether you’re hiking, cycling, or hitting the gym, your muscles can take a beating. Infrared heat is fantastic for soothing sore muscles, reducing joint pain, and speeding up recovery. The increased circulation delivers more oxygen and nutrients to tired tissues, helping you recover faster and stay active all season long.
Summer, while often considered to be fun, especially when we live with long winters in the UK, can still bring its share of stress. From busier than usual social calendars to travel plans, maintaining mental well-being is crucial. Your Jacuzzi sauna provides a calm environment. The gentle warmth helps to reduce cortisol (the stress hormone), promote relaxation, and even boosts feel-good hormones like dopamine and serotonin.
“Summer colds” can put a real dampener on seasonal plans. Regular sauna use can help boost your immune system by increasing white blood cell production and creating an artificial fever state that makes it harder for viruses and bacteria to thrive. Making use of your sauna helps keep your defences strong and helps you stay healthy to make the most of every summer day.
Don’t let the warmer weather deter you from experiencing the year-round advantages of your Jacuzzi infrared sauna. It’s a powerful tool for detoxification, skin health, heat acclimation, recovery, stress relief, and immune support, ensuring you feel your best throughout the summer months and beyond.
