Steam Embrace CabinetSauna and Steam Therapy for Better Health-
A Mini Vacation is Waiting!

Heat therapy has long been used by many cultures because of its soothing and purifying benefits.

Steam bathing is known to be extremely helpful for people with respiratory ailments, such as asthma, bronchitis and allergies. It also soothes muscles, bursitis, and rheumatism. Steam creates a relaxing atmosphere, aids in perspiration and deep cleansing of the pores. Steam therapy stimulates the cardiovascular system to improve circulation without raising blood pressure.

The sauna’s dry heat will strengthen your immune system by creating an artificial fever, thus increasing white blood cell formation. Saunas deep clean and moisturize the skin. They increase blood circulation, relieve acne, eczema and psoriasis and help open wounds heal more quickly with reduced scarring. A 20-minute sauna session may burn as many calories as you would rowing or jogging for the same amount of time.

The body’s sodium levels are depleted after use of the steam and sauna. Therefore, it’s important to drink plenty of water before and after to replace fluids lost during the treatment.

ENJOY THE PROCESS. Do not push your body beyond its comfort level; the point is not to “sweat if out” the longest, but to allow your mind and body to luxuriate in this invigorating miniature spa treatment.

NOTE: Only clients in overall good health should be exposed to whole-body steam treatments. Consult with your doctor particularly if you are over 45 with heart problems or other serious health issues. Treatment is NOT advised for pregnant women, small children, or if you have a fever.

Aromatherapy: you may choose oils to add to your steam depending on your needs such as stress relief, insomnia, allergy or cold relief, or others. Use some deep-breathing to inhale the aroma.

After your steam treatment, wipe down your body with a towel to remove any excess oils or purged toxins. This is a perfect time to massage a vitamin-enriched moisturizer into the skin.
