BACKGROUND ON INFRARED SAUNA Here is background on this release. Infrared technology has been researched and studied for decades and is used by licensed healthcare professionals all across North America. Traditional saunas use heat to warm the air around a person, while an infrared sauna heats the body directly. Infrared saunas are one of the few mediums that provide infrared heat in a controlled environment. Infrared heat is an invisible electromagnetic wave that helps improve blood flow. These electromagnetic wavelengths have the ability to penetrate soft tissue up to an inch and a half, warming the body and opening blood vessels in a process called vasodilation. Vasodilation helps to increase blood flow and lower blood pressure, which are key components in healing the body quicker and more efficiently.

By including an infrared sauna on the grounds, Sunshine Coast is extending its lead as one of the top-rated drug rehab, alcohol treatment, and PTSD / trauma therapy programs not just in British Columbia but throughout Canada.
