Infrared Sauna Power for a Summer-Ready Bod

Infrared Sauna Power for a Summer-Ready Bod

Ain’t No Body Like a HigherDOSE Body

Spring has technically sprung, and summer is heating up—which means it’s officially time to stop dreaming about your glow-up and start sweating for it. Whether you're looking to tone up, slim down, or feel strong as hell, the HigherDOSE way to a hot body starts with heat. Infrared heat, to be exact.

Our Infrared Sauna Blankets and full-size Infrared Saunas do more than just make you sweat (though, oh, they will make you sweat). They supercharge your metabolism, detox your system, and give your skin that juicy, post-cleanse kind of glow without the hunger pangs or green sludge.

Let’s break it down:

Sweat Is Your Superpower

Infrared works deep—like, really deep. It gets your blood pumping and your molecules vibing, loosening up all the stored gunk your body’s been hoarding (we’re talking heavy metals, radiation, pollutants, fat, cholesterol, alcohol, nicotine—the whole crew).

And when those toxins get released through your sweat? You’re clearing space. Fat cells love to hold onto toxins, and until you boot those suckers out, weight loss is harder than it needs to be. Infrared essentially melts the trash so you can sculpt the treasure. The result? A cleaner system, better nutrient absorption, more energy, and major main character confidence.

Burn, Baby, Burn

One infrared sauna sesh can torch up to 600 calories. That’s like a light jog… minus the chafing and cardio dread. Infrared revs your circulation and heart rate, giving you all the benefits of a workout—without actually working out.

It’s like tricking your body into thinking you hit the gym when you’re really just lying there in a heated cocoon, marinating in endorphins and glowing like the goddess you are.

Happy Brain, Healthy Habits

Here’s the thing: when you’re stressed, tired, or feeling blah, your brain craves quick hits of dopamine—cue the sugary snacks, scrolling binges, and impulsive “treat yourself” moments that aren’t actually treats. Infrared therapy flips that script by triggering your brain’s natural feel-good chemicals: dopamine, serotonin, oxytocin, and endorphins.

You step out of your session feeling buzzy, beautiful, and satisfied. Suddenly, that junk food craving? Not so tempting. Instead, you’ve got the clarity and calm to make choices that actually support your goals.

Glow to Sleep

You know what else infrared does? Puts your body into rest-and-repair mode by lowering cortisol (aka the stress hormone that keeps you wired and tired). With less cortisol in your system, you can finally really rest. We're talking the deep, restorative sleep that makes your skin smoother, your brain sharper, and your body more capable of doing all the things tomorrow.

Better sleep = better recovery = better results. It’s not just about looking good—it’s about functioning at your highest level.

Performance Boost, Recovery Mode, and Everything in Between

Whether you're pushing through Pilates or healing from a heavy lift (or just tired from being a human), infrared helps you bounce back faster and go further. It increases circulation, floods muscles and joints with oxygen, and even mimics the effects of endurance training. The science-y term? Hyperthermic conditioning. The real-life result? More strength, more stamina, and fewer excuses.

Can’t make it to the gym? Injured? Just don’t feel like it? Infrared gives you that same feel-good burn and boost—no squats required.

Bottom line?

If you want a body that’s sculpted, strong, and totally you—without the burnout—infrared is your not-so-secret weapon. Add it to your wellness lineup and get ready to feel energized, confident, and sexy all summer (and year) long.
