I bought an Infrared Sauna Blanket That was $400 on Amazon But It was $200 On This Site!

I'm the first to admit I've tried some wacky things in the name of wellness. I once ate raw garlic cloves every morning for two weeks straight as a natural alternative to antibiotics. (Not advised, if only for the garlic breath.) I brush my hair with a comb carved from a clear quartz crystal to purify my crown chakra. (Totally advised, if only for the aesthetic.)

Most recently, I dropped $200 on an infrared sauna blanket from DYML, so I could "detox" daily from the comfort of my own home — but that one's not as "out there" as it sounds. In fact, experts agree that infrared sauna therapy can improve digestion, reduce pain and inflammation, benefit cardiovascular health, and even clear up acne. 

I experienced the benefits of infrared sauna therapy firsthand almost a year ago. It was two months before my wedding, and I didn't fit into my dress. Desperate to lose a little weight before the big day, I added biweekly sauna appointments to my nutrition and fitness plan.

But what I noticed most after a couple months of regular sweat sessions wasn't the weight loss (although it helped in that department — my wedding dress fit like a glove). It was how energized I was afterward. How completely glow-y my skin looked. How cooking for an hour at 170 degrees Fahrenheit motivated me to make better choices for the rest of the day; I just felt healthier and happier, and wanted that feeling to last as long as possible.

According to Dr. Josh Axe, D.N.M., C.N.S., D.C. — the founder of Ancient Nutrition and DrAxe.com, and author of the upcoming book "Keto Diet" — this all checks out.

What To Know For Your Sweat Session:

Before Session – Your body will be totally wrapped in a disposable liner inside the infrared blanket wrap, you will have free movement of your arms. The effects are similar to exercise so a light meal or snack and hydration prior to your appointment is recommended!

During Session – Relax, Sleep, Meditate or bring your headphones and cell-phone/ device to listen to music, watch a movie or bring a book to read! Our highly trained Therapist will check-in periodically to monitor your comfort and provide water, cool towel and hydrating mist. Water, fan and clean towel will be provided during & after treatment.

After Session – Drink plenty of water to replenish fluids and electrolytes after a detox session! We happily provide Orange Juice and water bottles for you after your treatment. It is highly recommended to wait 1-2 hours before showering to allow the body to finish the full detox process. Wait several hours before eating to allow for maximum fat cell reduction if this is your goal.

What to Bring/ Wear:

We recommend bringing a change of loose comfortable clothes to sweat in such as loose t-shirt, workout shorts or bathing suit. Also please bring a bag to put sweaty clothes into after session. Bring a device to listen to music/ headphones/ book to read or nothing at all and zone out & relax while you detox. We provide cell phone/ipad stand in room for comfort/ convenience.
