Benefits

Feel-Good Hormones
Spending time in a sauna can have an impact on hormones, helping to induce the release of dopamine, endorphins, and serotonin. This can help improve mood and increase relaxation.

Decreased Stress
Studies suggest that saunas may lower cortisol (also known as “the stress hormone”), which can help people feel more relaxed and less stressed.

Improved Immune Function
Sauna blankets boost immune function by raising core temperature and the following cool-down period stimulates the immune system and boosts white blood cell counts.

Improved Cardiovascular Health
By increasing circulation and reducing inflammation, infrared light penetrates deep into the body's tissues and muscles, helping to reduce stress on the heart.

Detoxification
Sauna blankets make you sweat, and that sweating can remove toxins from the body acting as a detoxifying process for the body.

What colour LED do I need?

RED Light Therapy: For calming and plumping
(Wavelength between 620nm to 750nm)
Used for its anti-aging benefits because of its ability to stimulate collagen and elastin production. Also believed to reduce cytokines, which cause inflammation.

At the lighter end of the spectrum, red light works to soothe inflammation and redness, while deeper shades penetrate the skin further to prompt cellular repair and circulation, resulting in a plumper, more vibrant complexion.

BLUE Light Therapy: For acne and breakouts
(Wavelength between 405nm to 420nm)
Used for its antibacterial benefits and therefore used in acne treatment. This specific wavelength stimulates the production of oxygen radicals that kill P. Acnes bacteria (the acne-causing bacteria), without damaging the skin.

Blue light is used to kill the bacteria that leads to breakouts, making it ideal for treating acne-prone skin. Blue light also helps purify the pores and regulate oil glands. Commonly combined with red light.

AMBER Light Therapy: For cell generation & skin irritation
(Wavelength of between 590nm to 620nm)
Used to flush waste from the skin, boost lymphatic flow and increase cellular growth, aiding in cell-turnover, or production of new skin cells.

Amber/Yellow light is known to have a shallow penetration level, making it perfect for several skin issues. With the stimulation of red blood cell creation, these red blood cells eventually help to improve the rejuvenation of skin cells and speed up healing for wounds and other scars, reducing any swelling and increasing radiance.

Infrared Light Therapy: For a collagen and elastin boost
Invisible to the naked eye, this light penetrates deeper than any other colour in the spectrum. It combats the signs of ageing by replenishing dermal and epidermal cells, stimulates the natural production of collagen and elastin, and speeds up the recovery process.

Directions

1. Lay the Blanket on a Flat Surface
   Choose a space that is completely flat and provides sufficient room for the blanket to be fully unfolded, and a surface that is heat resistant to avoid damage while the blanket is in use.
   
   
2. Set Temperature & Duration
   Switch the sauna blanket on, set your temperature and a time duration.
   - Beginners to spend 10 to 15 minutes, 4 times per week.
   - When accustomed, spend 30 to 40 minutes, 4 times per week.
   
   
3. Preheat
   The length of time needed to preheat will depend on the temperature you have set. In general, you should allow 5-10 minutes for the device to reach operating temperature.
   
   
4. Dress Appropriately
   When using a sauna blanket you need to cover your body in clothing from neck to toe. This prevents direct contact between your skin and the hot blanket surface. You should change into something loose-fitting that feels comfortable against your skin.
   
   
5. Climb In
   Position your body inside the blanket, with your neck and head always on the outside of the blanket. Then, wrap the blanket closed around you and redo the velcro or zipper.
   
   
6. Lay Back & Enjoy
   Once inside all you have to do is lay back, relax, and enjoy. The infrared heat energy will begin working its way into your body and gently warming you right to the core. Use this time to practice breathing exercises or some meditation. If you begin to feel uncomfortable at any time, switch the device OFF and climb out.
   
   
7. Cool Down
   When your session is complete you should allow yourself some time to cool down. Your body will be at an elevated temperature and it will take time to readjust. You may find you continue to sweat during this time. Rest up for 5-10 minutes and your body will slowly work its way back to regular body temperature.
   
   
8. Shower & Freshen Up
   Rinse off immediately after your session in a shower. Not only is this a rejuvenating and invigorating experience, it will wash away any impurities and toxins flushed to the skin surface while sweating, and help you cool down.
   
   
9. Clean & Pack Away
   Follow the care instructions to clean the Infrared Sauna Blanket, and pack it away.

Tips

• Use It At the Same Time Nightly

• Listen to Your Body
  If at any time, you experience adverse effects during or after a sauna blanket session (for example, dizziness or nausea), then stop using the sauna blanket and consult your doctor.

Before you begin, ensure your mask is charged using provided Micro-USB cable (est. 30 mins)

Instructions

1. Cleanse your skin thoroughly to remove make-up and oil, ensuring your skin is bare. (The shine from skincare products will cause a reflection, meaning the wavelengths of the light won’t penetrate as deeply.)
   
   
2. Place the shield comfortably over your face. (Although there are no lights around the eye area of this mask, it's best to wear eye protection/goggles when using any LED face masks to protect your eyes.)
   
   
3. Press the power button located on the device to start your LED therapy session
   
   
4. To switch to another color press the power button to select between Red, Blue, or Amber depending on desired treatment therapy
   
   
5. The mask is on a self-timer in 15-minute increments.
   
   
6. To power down press and hold the power button until the light has turned off (about 2-3 seconds)
   
   
7. Apply products after your treatment, as the boost in circulation will enhance absorption.
   

Which Serum to Use?

To tackle breakouts, salicylic acid is ideal, or try a vitamin C serum for brightening, or maybe a hydrating hyaluronic acid as a booster. As always, seal with a moisturiser and don't forget the SPF by day.
