Improving: Energy - Healing - Health
Do I need to bring anything to my session? Yes, please bring a t-shirt an a pair of shorts - or - a swimsuit - or - a robe - whatever you feel comfortable wearing - and - water. We supply the towels, Alaska Electrolytes Plus and other items necessary for each session.
What is the difference between an Infrared Body Wrap Session and a Infrared Light / Deep Healing Warmth Session? An Infrared Light / Deep Healing Warmth Session does not include a body wrap. Both our Infrared Body Wrap Sessions and Infrared Light / Deep Healing Warmth Sessions assist your body with decreasing excess "water" weight, burning calories, processing fat, relieving stress and pain, and helping improve the immune system for overall health and body maintenance.
I would like to try an Infrared Body Wrap Session. Will the Infrared Body Wrap just help me lose "water weight" or will an Infrared Body Wrap help me to burn calories, too? Infrared Body Wraps help your body process fat as well as decrease excess "water weight". Infrared Body Wrap Sessions use infrared light rays to help your body burn calories - as much as 800 to 1200 calories per 30 minute session. Infrared Body Wrap Sessions and Infrared Light / Deep Healing Warmth Sessions also increase your metabolism so that your body continues to burn calories for six (6) to eight (8) hours after each session.
I've heard that body wraps help lose inches. Is this true? Yes, Infrared Body Wrap Sessions and inch loss go together. The inch loss is from the tightening of the skin and also from the instant "water weight" loss.
Is there a difference between Infrared Body Wraps? Yes. Laura's unique Infrared Body Wraps actually help your body to process fat, burn calories, decrease excess "water weight", relieve stress and pain, detoxify and improve overall health.
How often can I have an Infrared Body Wrap Session? Three (3) to five (5) times per week - as long as your electrolytes are replaced during each wrap. Alaska Electrolytes Plus contains the complete range of electrolytes that are needed to help prevent dehydration. Alaska Electrolytes Plus also assists your body to build, rebuild, and maintain your immune system. A strong immune system fosters Energy - Healing - Health.
Do I need to shower after my Infrared Session? Yes.
Will Infrared dry out my skin or hair? No. The infrared light rays gently warm your body before warming the air. The actual temperature of the infrared booth or room is relatively cool - between 95°F and 100°F. A natural skin exfoliation occurs and skin begins to develop a "healthy, youthful glow" after only the first session.
Many clients use a small bit of oil on their hair before an Infrared Body Wrap or Infrared Light / Deep Healing Warmth Session. Since infrared light rays penetrate over half an inch into your skin, soft tissue and hair, the soothing, warm light rays allow the oil to penetrate thoroughly into your hair follicles. Hair becomes shiny, nourished, healthy and easy-to-manage.
How long will the inches stay off after completing a package set of Infrared Body Wrap Sessions? The amount of time that the inch loss lasts depends upon each person's individual body. If a person is taking hormones or otherwise tends to retain excess "water weight", the inches will come back quicker than a person who tends not to retain "water weight". Clients report inch loss lasting from one (1) month to six (6) months or even years.
I have lost over 20 pounds and my skin is sagging. Will these Infrared Body Wraps help tighten my skin? Yes. These Infrared Body Wraps help the body to increase collagen and elastin production for new healthy cell growth in both the skin and the organs.
Case Study: I had a client who lost 99 pounds. Her skin was so loose that six (6) large folds sagged down from each thigh. She came in for six (6) Infrared Body Wrap Sessions in a period of three (3) weeks. After the second Infrared Body Wrap Session, her skin was much tighter than when she arrived for the first session. By the fourth Infrared Body Wrap Session, even I was amazed at the results. At the end of the sixth Infrared Body Wrap Session, her skin was back to normal. The elasticity of her skin improved dramatically. Her skin has remained this way for several years now.
I have severe sinus problems. Will Infrared Light / Deep Healing Warmth Sessions without a body wrap help? Yes. This kind of Infrared Light / Deep Healing Warmth helps relieve sinus and upper respiratory problems, including asthma. The Infrared Light stimulates the immune system to heal.
I haven't been in an Infrared Light / Deep Healing Warmth Session before. What does it feel like? It feels really good, warm and relaxing. You feel like you are sitting on a white sandy beach. You become: Totally Relaxed and Refreshed - Renewed in Body - Mind - and - Soul.
I have had a hip replacement. Will the Infrared Light / Deep Healing Warmth Sessions make my hip burn me? No. Metal pins, rods, artificial joints or other surgical implants generally reflect infrared rays. The infrared rays are not absorbed by the implants, so the implants do not become hot. Consult your physician prior to beginning this or any other health care program.
Are Infrared Light / Deep Healing Warmth Sessions safe? Yes. If you have a medical condition, are using prescription drugs that are sensitive to infrared light, have adrenal suppression, systemic lupus, erythematosus, multiple sclerosis, hemophilia, the tendency to bleed, enclosed dental, joint or tissue infections(s), or if your are pregnant, consult your physician.

Testimonials: Weight Loss & Pain Relief

Dean Jorgensen
I have had the FIR sauna about six (6) weeks and I want to let you know how I am doing. Sandie, my wife, uses it with me. Sandie has lost weight, has less pain in her knees, and is energized after our sessions.
With me I hardly know where to begin. I have great reduction in pain which aids mobility hugely. My appetite and taste buds are about too good as weight is coming back to the point that I need to watch it and work on building muscle. I started out getting in the sauna with great effort, pain and help. Today I put the towels in while it was warming up then got myself in then out.
I have graduated from being helped onto a commode (a toilet seat taped to a kitchen chair with the cushion removed) to getting myself onto and off the regular toilet plus being able to wipe. I have gone from slide board transfers with help to standing transfers by myself, except for getting out of the recliner where I sometimes need help - from being in my wheel chair or recliner all the time to being able to keep the walker moving at a steady pace (slow but steady), instead of step push, step push.
Most of the numbness has gone out of my right hand and foot, but the left are lagging behind. I still have a lot of trouble with the right hip where the infection seems to have started and seated in the worst. I hadn't really thought about what the bacteria did beyond fever until Laura got me to thinking about the havoc they raise and scar tissue they leave behind. I still have quite a ways to go, but I am a far cry from the concentration camp like skeleton Sandie brought home from the hospital.
All in all not too bad for a guy who was resuscitated three times, died once, and had two allergic reactions to systemic antibiotics. My hands, wrists and right hip are my biggest health problems and I am open to suggestions. However, they are getting much better with time and temp - FIR temp that is. (Note from Laura: Dean is referring to far infrared light, which creates warmth.)
A very deep heart felt thanks to you, Laura for listening and sharing information with me!

Following is an except from a letter I wrote to the Cleveland Clinic Center for the Spine. Alaska Electrolytes® Plus products and specific back and neck Pain Relief Movements helped me to heal.
The Excerpt: "When I arrived at the Cleveland Clinic, I had a severe headache and numbness, aching and tingling throughout my upper back, shoulders, arms, hands and fingers. I was very concerned about a twitch that had developed in my face, neck and shoulders and my manual/writing limitations. After completing two sessions, my headache of two-and-a-half years had decreased appreciably. By the end of the fourth session, I had learned to reduce and/or eliminate discomfort as it occurs."
