Infrared Saunas vs. Traditional
Sunlighten saunas use infrared heat instead of hot rocks or steam used in traditional saunas. Because infrared heats the body directly instead of simply heating the air, infrared saunas are seven times more effective for detoxification.
What is Infrared?
Infrared light (experienced as heat) is the invisible part of the sun’s spectrum with the ability to penetrate human tissue, giving a soothing, natural warmth. It is naturally occurring from the sun and is the basis for Sunlighten sauna therapy.
Is it Safe?
Infrared heat is completely safe and healthy for all living things. You can be exposed to infrared light for hours without the risk of burning. Infrared is a naturally occurring output of the sun, but does not contain the harmful UV rays associated with unprotected sunlight. In fact, infrared heat is so safe, it is used in hospitals to warm newborn infants.

“I’m a long-time believer of infrared sauna therapy and its natural healing benefits. I love the Sunlighten brand and have been using my infrared sauna for years. In fact, I’m in the market for a new one since the buyer of my old house insisted I include the sauna in the sale!”

SO Sound Acoustic Resonance Therapy
Acoustic Resonance Therapy aids in relaxation, healing and enhance the sauna experience in amazing ways. The key is the SO SoundHeart® actuators, which add Hi-Fidelity Musical Touch Technology™ to the sauna. The A.R.T. produces deep penetrating harmonic sound waves to complement the deep penetrating infrared rays of the sauna. The harmonically balanced flow of musical sound waves flowing through your body will enhance natural relaxation and healing.
How Does It Work?
Just as the infrared sauna surrounds you with soothing, relaxing heat waves, so too does Acoustic Resonance Therapy surround you with resonant harmonic energy to increase the therapeutic effects of the sauna. It is like getting a sauna session and massage at the same time!
Sit Back, Relax and Feel the Music
Think back for a moment to the last time you heard a song that instantly reminded you of a special moment. How did it make you feel? Music has been used throughout the ages to uplift, relax, energize, inspire, unify and transition us. Now you can feel the music you enjoy through the SO Sound Acoustic Resonance Therapy™ system right in the sauna. Tune out the stress, worry and noise and tune in to a musical body/mind massage experience that relaxes, inspires and refreshes you.
Contraindications
It is always best to check with your health care provider before trying any new products or programs. Those with pace makers are advised not to use the products due to the electromagnetic nature of the SO SoundHearts®. We also recommend that pregnant women use the product at low resonance and audio volume levels.
