Salt Therapy + Far Infrared Therapy

A Practical Integration Guide for Clinics & Spas

1. What is Far Infrared Therapy?

Far Infrared (FIR) is a form of light therapy, not just heat. Unlike traditional saunas that warm the air, FIR penetrates 2–5 inches beneath the skin, where it resonates with water molecules and stimulates circulation, oxygenation, and cellular repair.

  • Medical view: FIR works at the microcirculatory level, reducing inflammation, supporting detoxification, and easing chronic pain.

  • Spa & wellness view: FIR creates a uniquely pleasant heat—deep, soothing, and rejuvenating—that clients can feel immediately.

2. Why Pair FIR with Salt Therapy?

Salt rooms clear the respiratory system. FIR restores the body. Together, they form a synergistic experience:

  • Clients breathe deeper, recover faster, and feel lighter after sessions.

  • Bundling salt + FIR extends session value and keeps clients in your facility longer.

  • For medical practices, the dual therapy offers complementary benefits for respiratory, circulatory, and musculoskeletal conditions.

3. Evidence-Based Benefits of FIR

Clinical research shows FIR supports:

  • Improved circulation & oxygen delivery

  • Pain relief & inflammation reduction

  • Detoxification of heavy metals and microplastics

  • Skin rejuvenation & wound healing support

  • Relaxation and improved sleep quality

Note: Relax far infrared generators are FDA-cleared for pain relief and increased circulation.

4. Business Integration

  • Salt Therapy Studios: Add FIR as a “premium layer” to existing salt sessions or offer packaged memberships.

  • Medical Clinics: Integrate as a safe adjunct to chiropractic, PT, or integrative treatments.

  • ROI: Compact FIR saunas require minimal space, operate on standard outlets, and are easy to sanitize between clients. Many centers see payback in under six months.

5. Why the Relax System?

Not all infrared is created equal. The Relax Sauna is FDA-registered and uses a patented semiconductor chip that emits a pure, concentrated band of far infrared (4–14 µm), peaking at 9.4 µm—the wavelength shown to resonate most strongly with the body’s water molecules in clinical research. Unlike generic heaters, it delivers consistent medical-grade power (40–45 mW/cm²), producing faster, deeper, and more effective results in minutes.
