Although the wavelength is exactly the same, there is a difference in the light-tissue interaction between the 755 nm of IPL and laser. The difference in how or skin “receives” these two technologies lines the main differences between IPL and laser technologies in general. First of all, the main difference is that IPL has a spectrum of light, from 755 nm up to an upper limit of 1200 nm, while the laser is monochromic, meaning a single wavelength of 755 nm. Since the laser beam is monochromatic, coherent, and collimated, the light has much lower reflection and scattering, making the laser technology more aggressive than IPL.

Infrared Sauna
-
Absolutely! Infrared therapy has many functions in the human body, making sense for it to be used in moderation every day. These functions include:
• Weight loss
• Detoxification
• Immune system boost
• Enhanced circulation
• Muscle tension reduction
• Pain relief
• Blood-pressure lowering
-
Infrared therapy is an innovative method with proven efficacy. Infrared is a low-energy form of electromagnetic radiation, allowing it to penetrate through the skin’s deep layers without damaging it. Infrared therapy is safe, non-invasive, non-radioactive, and painless.
-
Infrared therapy refers to infrared light to treat pain and inflammation. This light is safe and not as energetic as ultraviolet light, damaging the skin. The infrared light focuses on the specific location of the pain and promotes cell repair in the area affected, so the pain and cause go away.
-
Infrared Saunas work differently than traditional Saunas because Infrared Saunas heat the body directly instead of the surrounding air. Because Infrared Saunas heat the body directly, they are even more effective at penetrating tissues and promoting perspiration.
Infrared Saunas cause your core body temperature to increase - not just your surface temperature. Sitting in an Infrared Sauna for even 30 minutes can burn up to 600 calories! Your time in a sauna can also be a relaxing and restful experience where you can unwind and disconnect from your day.
-
Not sure what to expect during your Infrared Sauna session at The Holistic Rejuvenation Center?
After you complete a basic waiver, our staff will bring you to your private Infrared Sauna. Before starting your sauna session, you’ll want to undress and cover yourself in a towel or robe. Then, you’ll enter the sauna where you will stay for 15 to 40 minutes.
Before, during, and after your Infrared Sauna session, it’s a good idea to drink plenty of water. You’ll notice that you sweat a fair amount during your Infrared Sauna session - and this is exactly what you want!
Sweating is a healthy process that may help the body to detoxify from the many harmful free radicals and heavy metals that have negative long-term effects on human health.
After your Sauna Session is over, you’ll want to get changed into loose clothing that’s breathable and light, as you may continue sweating for some time after you leave your session.

Your body’s reaction to infrared therapy is the same as when you do moderate exercise. When in an infrared sauna, the body’s response to it is the same as in a regular sauna; this includes intensive sweating, blood vessel dilation, and heart rate increase. All of these responses will bring about many health benefits.
However, some agree that with infrared, the heat in your body activates more intensely, but without the sometimes suffocating effects of heated air. The waves produced by the infrared lamps in a sauna go deep through your skin and heal deep tissue.
The infrared wavelength impacts the chemical bonds between molecules in the cell. When exposed, your body experiences radiant heat, which goes down to 1 ½ inch inside your skin. Inside an infrared sauna, this provides many therapeutic effects.
