Questions about Sauna

How long should I stay in the sauna?

The recommended time to spend in a sauna is 15–20 minutes, but it depends on your health and comfort level. If you are new to sauna it is a good idea to start with 5–10 minutes and extend your sauna time from there.

You should also listen to your body and take breaks if you feel uncomfortable. Staying in a sauna for too long can increase your risk of dehydration, electrolyte imbalance, and heat stroke. It is important to stay hydrated by drinking more water before, during and after your sauna.

The heat from the sauna opens your pores and widens your blood vessels, which increases your body temperature and sweat production. This helps your body release toxins and stimulates your metabolism and detoxification. Regular sauna use can also help improve blood flow, relax muscles, and improve skin health.

Why do a cold plunge or cold shower after a sauna?

Alternating between a sauna and a cold plunge, also known as hydrotherapy, can have many benefits, including improving circulation, metabolism and immune system function, as well as decreasing inflammation and pain while adding in detoxification of metabolic waste.

Questions about Red Light Therapy

Will Red Light Therapy make my skin red?

Red Light therapy can make your skin temporarily red but these effects will go away shortly after treatment ends and will reduce overall redness, acne, scars and wrinkles.

Does it hurt?

Red light therapy (RLT) is generally considered safe and painless for most people. RLT uses low levels of heat and doesn't expose the skin to UV rays like tanning booths, so it shouldn't cause burns or harm. 

How long do results last?

Red light therapy results can vary depending on the treatment's goals and the areas being treated. Most visible results are temporary, but some say that the effects can last up to a month after stopping treatment. Regular treatments are needed to extend the results.

Questions about Cryotherapy

How long does it take?

The duration is generally 1-3 minutes per area receiving treatment.

Does it hurt?

Cryotherapy involves cooling the skin and may cause sensations during the treatment like the stinging one would experience holding an ice cube. Any discomfort from the cold subsides within minutes.

How long do the results last?

Cryotherapy can provide immediate relief from joint and muscle pain, which can last for several days or longer. The length of time the effects last depends on the intensity of the treatment and the condition being treated. For example, pain relief from a recent injury may only last a few hours, while pain relief from arthritis may last a few days.

Initial results from cryotherapy facials can last a few weeks, but you may need to get a facial every 3–5 weeks to maintain the effects. Over time, the facial can change your skin's texture and firmness, and the more frequently you get treatments, the more permanent the results will be. Cryofacials are also recommended for maintenance if you're getting treatments to reduce fine lines and wrinkles.

Results from cryoskin body sculpting can offer lasting effects, but this depends on the individual, their diet, and their lifestyle. To maintain optimal results, you may need to come back for 2–3 maintenance sessions 6 months after the end of treatment
