Sweat. Reset. Recover: Why Our McKinney Sauna Experience Is More Than Just Heat

The Wellness Room is McKinney’s go-to destination for whole-body wellness and recovery. Our Clearlight® full-spectrum infrared sauna offers more than just a place to sweat; it provides a comforting experience where you can relax, recover, and recharge from the inside out.

The History of the Sauna

Did you know that the use of saunas goes back 10,000 years? The earliest versions of these were pits dug into the ground, with a pile of stones at the bottom, which was then heated with a campfire.

Over the centuries, saunas have been unearthed all over the world, from Bronze Age Ireland to the indigenous cultures of North America to Japan’s mushi-buros. They have been used for more than health and wellness, but they have a long history of use in everything from religious rites to household chores.

Unlike other passing health fads that come and go in a couple of years, saunas have remained a cornerstone of cultural health and wellness worldwide because of their efficiency. The Mayo Clinic reports that sauna bathing “is linked to a remarkable array of health benefits.” Going beyond the traditional benefits of a sauna, infrared saunas are a next-level wellness experience.

The Benefits of Infrared Saunas

At The Wellness Room, we offer our clients the Clearlight® full-spectrum infrared sauna. Why are infrared saunas a step up from traditional saunas?

Infrared heat is the same heat produced by the sun, providing thermal energy in one’s joints, muscles, and tissues. Unlike the sun, which delivers UV light, infrared light from saunas promotes natural healing. Essentially, this infrared sauna promotes deep detox, circulation, and relaxation without the intensity of traditional saunas or lying out in the sun.

McKinney Sauna Sessions at The Wellness Room

When you visit The Wellness Room, it’s more than just a sauna. Our McKinney sauna is paired with our cold plunge in a private recovery suite. Here you have access to the Clearlight® full-spectrum infrared sauna, a Plunge® cold tub, plus shower access, towel service, and a hair dryer so you can leave feeling refreshed

During your session, you will have 50 minutes to utilize the room to its fullest. Whether you want to start in the sauna or the plunge, you can alternate as much as you like and adjust the temperatures to your comfort.

By combining these two services, which we call contrast therapy, you can benefit from:

• Muscle soreness relief and recovery

• Stress relief and nervous system reset

• Mental clarity and mood boost

  
  

So whether you are a busy professional, an athlete, or someone who wants a quiet place to relax, unwind, and boost your health, our McKinney Sauna and Cold Plunge Suites are the perfect way to feel recharged for the rest of the day.

We encourage you to drop by for an intro session, solo or with a guest, and see if our service resonates with you. Schedule your appointment today to visit The Wellness Room Chiropractic + Recovery.
