HEALTH BENEFITS
Saunas are warm, welcoming retreats with many social and therapeutic benefits. Now you can enjoy
the benefits of a centuries-proven thermal therapy in the comfort and privacy of your own home with a
Cal Heat Sauna. Our saunas combine advanced engineering with distinctive innovations and styling and

Rejuvenate In Comfort
Just a few minutes in the warmth of your Cal Heat Sauna will soothe nerves, relieve tension and relax
tight muscles. With Cal Heat’s wide selection of sauna styles, sizes, options and accessories, you can
customize the perfect sauna to meet your Home Resort and budget ideals.
Detoxify the Body
A sauna’s beneficial heat enhances the body’s natural detoxification process through the process of
sweating. Warmth causes capillaries to dilate and increases blood flow, which pushes the heart to pump
faster. Increased circulation allows the body to collect and flush out waste products. Sweat carries these
waste products out of the body through the pores.
Promote Weight Loss*
Studies have shown that a heat bath can burn hundreds of calories. As the body works to cool itself, the
heart rate, metabolic rate and cardiac output increase. As a result, blood circulation increases substantially, which promotes cardiovascular conditioning.

Improve the Immune System
During a sauna session, the body’s temperature increases to a feverish level. A fever is the body’s natural
defense to combating bacteria and viral agents, neither of which survive well at temperatures higher than
normal body temperature. When fighting a cold, sitting in a sauna also helps to relieve nasal congestion
and minor respiratory discomforts.
Relieve Muscle & Joint Stress
Soothing heat from a sauna provides relief to stressed joints and tight muscles. As muscles are heated
and warmed, they become more flexible and limber. Exposed to high heat, the body releases endorphins,
which are the body’s natural pain relieving chemicals. Increased blood circulation also delivers oxygenrich blood to tired muscles to aid in muscle recovery.
Improve Skin Complexion
Cal Heat Saunas also aid rejuvenation of the skin for a vibrant complexion. As your body sweats, skin is
cleansed from the inside out as increased circulation draws the skin’s own natural nutrients to the surface. As the heart pumps harder, more oxygen is delivered to the skin. Regular sauna usage promotes
improved skin tone, elasticity, texture and clarity.
*Always consult your physician prior to beginning any weight loss program.

TYPES OF HEAT
Cal Heat Saunas are designed to alleviate muscle tension, promote deep relaxation
and naturally detoxify the body using one of three types of heat: Steam, infrared or
carbon fiber.
Steam
Steam or “traditional” heating (found on our Custom and Outdoor series) uses an electrical element to produce steam from
the combination of heated rocks and water. Rocks efficiently
store heat and provide an excellent surface for the release of
steam when water is applied. By using rocks in the entire heater, the Cal Heat design ensures an even distribution of heat and
steam for a more comfortable and effective sauna experience.
Our steam saunas are designed to maximize airflow and to ensure fast, effective and efficient heat distribution.
Infrared
Infrared or “Far Infrared” heating (found on our Infrared Series)
uses a wavelength of energy found in sunlight’s invisible spectrum to provide soothing heat. In an infrared sauna, the heat
passes through the skin, warms the body through molecular
vibration and promotes perspiration. Infrared saunas are generally much cooler than steam saunas because the body absorbs
most of the wavelengths. While steam saunas regularly reach
temperatures from 140° to 190°, infrared saunas provide many
of the same health benefits of traditional steam saunas but only
raise the indoor temperature from 105° to 140°. The benefits
of an infrared sauna are felt quickly due to the relatively short
amount of time needed to preheat.
Carbon Fiber
Carbon Fiber heating (found on our Carbon Fiber Series) operates similarly to infrared heating. In a Carbon Fiber sauna, the
wavelength is optimized to more deeply diffuse through the
skin and heat the body. The human body is made up primarily of
carbon and water, so the spectrum from a carbon fiber heater
is easier for the body to absorb. Carbon fiber heaters emit the
most even and direct deep penetrating heat, enhancing detoxification, pain relief and increasing blood flow. Also, lower surface temperatures of the carbon fiber heater and lower indoor
temperatures from 100° to 125° make this type of sauna both
extremely comfortable and effective.

circulation. One vent allows a flow
of fresh air and oxygen to enter the
sauna while the other vent enables
the release of excess heat.
