Infrared Gym in Westchester County
Infrared heat has been gaining much traction lately in the health and fitness world, and for good reason! It’s not only incredibly soothing and energizing but also offers a variety of notable health benefits. Working out at an infrared gym can directly warm your body, allowing you to experience a more intense sweat while you exercise.
Even though sweating has a bad reputation, it’s actually a good thing! It’s one of the body’s most natural detoxing methods (expelling toxic components). Sweat contains substances like lactic acid, urea, uric acid, and ammonia. Do you know what other bodily fluids contain several of these same elements? Urine! That just goes to show how important sweating is for waste elimination.

Controlled Infrared Heat vs. Sunlight
Sunlight emits two primary forms of energy: invisible infrared energy, and visible radiation. We perceive the former as heat and the latter as light. Some may wonder why they should go to an infrared studio when they can soak up infrared energy directly from the sun. Unfortunately, intentionally exposing yourself to excessive sunlight can backfire in a big way.
The problem with intentionally getting infrared energy from sunlight is that it also comes with a dose of harmful ultraviolet radiation. That’s the stuff that’s linked to premature aging, sun spots, and even skin cancer.1
Exposing yourself to more controlled forms of infrared heat, such as those emitted from the infrared heaters in our studio room is safer. Our heaters offer all the health benefits of infrared heat without exposing you to harmful UV rays.
What to Expect From Infrared Workouts
If there’s one thing you can expect from an infrared workout, you’ll sweat… a lot. Infrared workouts look pretty similar to typical gym workouts. However, the addition of infrared heat ramps up the intensity and the health benefits.
It’s essential to bring water with you to our infrared studio. You’ll need to optimize your fluid intake before, during, and after your workout to make sure you don’t get dehydrated. You should also pay close attention to your body and ensure you don’t overdo it during your first few infrared workouts. Give your body time to adjust to the increased intensity gradually.
