Sauna treatments used as additional Massage Therapy Detox Treat!


Here at the Cassena, we like to have the infrared Sauna heated up to 130* or lower when you arrive so that you go into the warm meditation chamber for as long as you are comfortable before your massage session, anywhere from 10 to 30 minutes. The rays of the infrared actually penetrate your muscles and prepares them to receive the massage so that the therapy can be more effective and long lasting.

Burns Calories And Controls Weight Loss

One 30-minute session in a SunDialSauna burns as many calories as 60 minutes of swimming or jogging. A SunDialSauna is an unsurpassed expeller of toxins that are directly related to metabolic imbalances in the body, causing poor digestion and weight gain. Medical evidence suggests that in many cases, effective weight loss cannot occur until these toxins are removed first. Although weight loss due to perspiration (water loss) is quickly regained, the calories burned during one short sauna session do not return.

Get Rid of Excess Weight

Journal of the American Medical Association: "A moderately conditioned person can easily sweat off 500 grams in a sauna, consuming nearly 300 kcal, which is equivalent to running 2-3 miles. A heat-conditioned person can easily sweat off 600-800 kcal with no adverse effects. While the weight of the water loss can be regained by drinking water, the calories consumed will not be."

Infrared saunas provide a convenient, inexpensive and pleasant way to get rid of excess weight. Now more than ever, people are more aware and rightly concerned about their health. For many, excess weight is a perennial problem and fad diets have never proven to be an effective and lasting solution. Excess weight frequently leads to high blood pressure, heart attacks, diabetes, stroke and many other diseases. The market is awash with hundreds of "sure fire" programs to lose weight and keep it off, including countless diets, exercise machines, exercise routines, prepared meals, "wonder pills" and even special clothing. But whether excess weight is of physiological or psychological origin, common sense will solve the problem of excess weight... eating a balanced diet in proper portions and at the proper times, moderate physical activity, living a healthy lifestyle, adequate rest, and regular detoxification sessions will result in weight loss and maintenance, as well as better health.

If you have already tried various methods of weight loss that failed to produce the desired results, consider changing your diet to include more fresh fruits and vegetables, lean meat and fish, while significantly reducing your intake of sweets, soft drinks, chips and other such "hollow calorie" items. Additionally, try eating a heavier breakfast (as early as possible), a medium lunch and a very light evening meal (as early as possible), then try going to bed no later than 9:00 PM each evening. Going to bed early helps you to avoid any hunger pains (you sleep through them) as your body adjusts to the new diet and routine, and you can't eat at night if you are asleep.

For physical activity, consider walking, jogging, cycling, swimming or tennis. Such activities will not only help you to lose the excess weight, but will also develop your muscle tone and conditioning.

An important part of healing the whole body is removing toxins routinely, And infrared saunas are the most effective way to do this. When people hear the word "sauna", they immediately think of the traditional Finnish steam type sauna. But the technology of infrared sauna is light years ahead of traditional saunas, and much

Sundial Infrared Sauna can Detox your Body!

SunDialSpa provides a simple, easy, pleasant and healthy way to cleanse the body of toxins!
Over the last two decades, researchers in many countries have studied the phenomenon of benefits provided by infrared heat on human health. The common consensus has accepted the "bioresonance" detoxification theory. 
When gases, metals and pollutants, such as dioxins, lead, mercury or chlorine get into the water molecules of cells, they tend to "capture" large molecules of water. The accumulation of toxins in the body blocks cell energy and reduces blood flow.
Detoxification occurs when the infrared rays cause the water molecules in cells to vibrate. The vibration and heat expands the blood vessels, and causes the cells to release the toxins from the captivity of the water molecules for excretion via perspiration and urine.
