Why Using an Infrared Sauna in Summer Is Surprisingly Good for You

When the temperatures rise, stepping into a sauna might not be the first thing on your mind—but it should be. At Kairos Float & Wellness Studio, we’re all about helping you stay balanced year-round, and our infrared sauna is a powerful summer wellness ally. Here’s why sweating with intention this season is a smart move for your body and mind.

Make this the best summer ever!

1. Support Your Body’s Natural Detox Process with Infrared Sauna

Summer activities can come with indulgences—backyard BBQs, beach cocktails, and sunscreen layers. Infrared sauna therapy helps your body detoxify by stimulating a deep, cellular-level sweat, flushing out impurities like heavy metals, alcohol, and environmental toxins. Unlike a traditional sauna, infrared heat warms your body from the inside out, encouraging a more efficient detox without overwhelming heat.

2. Boost Circulation & Beat That Sluggish Feeling

High humidity and heat can sometimes leave you feeling heavy or bloated. Infrared sauna sessions increase blood flow, which helps reduce water retention, rev up your metabolism, and re-energize tired muscles. You’ll walk out of the session lighter, both physically and mentally.

3. Strengthen Your Summer Glow

Infrared heat can improve skin tone, texture, and elasticity—naturally giving you that summer glow. By increasing circulation and promoting collagen production, infrared saunas may help reduce the appearance of blemishes and fine lines, all while clearing out pore-clogging toxins. It’s like a gentle skincare boost from the inside.

4. Support Athletic Recovery from Outdoor Activities

Long days at the beach, hiking trips, or intense workouts in the sun? Infrared sauna sessions can reduce muscle soreness and inflammation, helping your body recover faster and avoid burnout. Pro athletes and weekend warriors alike use infrared therapy to stay in the game all season long.

5. Balance Your Internal Thermostat

Here’s a secret: Regular infrared sauna use may improve your body’s heat tolerance. That means when you're out in the sun or dealing with summer heat waves, your body might handle the heat better. It’s like training your internal cooling system to work more efficiently—especially helpful in our North Carolina climate.

6. Time to Reset & Unplug

Summer can get hectic with travel, social plans, and disrupted routines. An infrared sauna session is the perfect excuse to step away from the chaos and reset. Just 20 minutes in the soothing warmth helps lower cortisol levels, calm your mind, and put you in a vacation state of mind—without even leaving Greenville.

Pro Tip: For best results, we recommend 2–3 short infrared sessions per week—especially if you’re combining them with float therapy or cold plunge for a full-body reboot.
