Why Choose Our Sauna?
If you haven’t used it yet, our Sunlighten sauna is quite different to the traditional hot-rocks-and-water experience.
What does it do?
The first thing most people notice is a stress-relieving relaxing of the muscles. Tension melts away, and the deep penetrating warmth is very soothing on aches and pains. With regular use you feel the benefits of a deep, healthy sweat that purifies your body and improves circulation. After the first session, people often notice clearer skin and a deep, restful sleep.
What does it feel like?
In contrast to traditional high-heat saunas, Solocarbon™ infrared heating is highly customisable, so you can enjoy a deep, detoxifying sweat at lower, more comfortable temperatures. Like it hot? That’s fine too – now you have the choice.
Infrared – is that like a Microwave / UV?
Unlike tanning beds, Sunlighten saunas use infrared heating, which is entirely different to microwaves, or ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Infrared heat is safe and healthy for all living things. Far from a new technology, infrared heat has been used in a variety of health and human movement applications for many years.
Sunlighten saunas use a refined heating technology called Solocarbon™, which is used in day spas, gyms, training studios and health practices worldwide.

Infrared Heat
Infrared heat is the natural, radiant heat emitted by the sun. Unlike Microwaves or Ultra Violet (UV) radiation, infrared heat is 100% safe and has been used in various heating application for decades. The feeling of pure infrared heat in a Sunlighten sauna is gentle, penetrating warmth – similar to warming rays of sunlight on a winter’s day, without the harmful UV component.
Solocarbon Full Spectrum Heating Technology
The simple principle of full-spectrum technology is that not all infrared heat is the same. Different blends of near-infrared, mid-infrared and far-infrared heat deliver different outcomes. Sunlighten mPulse series saunas are the only saunas in the world to offer full-spectrum infrared heating, utilising the entire infrared spectrum, so you can tailor your sessions to suit your needs.
What types of Infrared are used?
NEAR INFRARED (NIR) is the shortest infrared wavelength and penetrates the skin’s surface most effectively. Only Sunlighten have worked with NASA to develop a patented LED array that provides NIR at a singular and optimal wavelength. Delivered at the vital wavelength of 880nm without extreme heat or light, Sunlighten NIR is ideal for cell rejuvenation, skin renewal and wound healing.
MID INFRARED (MIR) is a longer wavelength that can penetrate deeper into the body’s soft tissue where inflammation can occur. MIR helps expand blood vessels and increases circulation so more oxygen can reach injured areas of the body. This reduces pain and speeds the healing process. Sunlighthen MIR is ideal for pain relief, muscle recovery, passive cardiovascular workout and weight loss.
FAR INFRARED (FIR) is the longest wavelength and reaches deepest into the body where toxins are stored. By raising your core body temperature, FIR stimulates the sweat glands resulting in a deep, detoxifying sweat that leaves you feeling revitalized. The Sunlighten FIR provides the benefits of an increased core body temperature, increased blood circulation, detoxification and reduced blood pressure.
