City Sweats is Seattle’s premiere infrared sauna and spa. They have locations in Wallingford, Madison Park, Bellevue, and West Seattle. City Sweats is known for their infrared saunas, but they also offer cold plunging, lymphatic drainage massages, infrared sauna wraps, therapeutic massages, dry brushing, organic facials, and ultrasonic body contouring.

Infrared saunas use heat and infrared light waves to heat the body deeply in order to release stored toxins more efficiently than traditional saunas. There are so many benefits to infrared saunas, including:

Health & Vitality: Infrared saunas calm blood pressure and cholesterol levels, improve circulation, normalize blood sugar levels, decrease inflammation and stored toxins, and boost the immune system.

Detoxing: Infrared saunas help cellular level rejuvenation and detoxify the body 7x more efficiently than traditional saunas. They help to replenish the body back to a state of harmony.

Stress Management: Spending time in an infrared sauna calms the mind, increases mental clarity, and may even help get rid of brain fog. Infrared saunas decrease cortisol levels and increase serotonin levels.

Skin Benefits: Infrared saunas expel wrinkle-causing free radicals, and they increase cell turnover. They also balance skin-tone and hydrate dry skin.

Weight Management: Sweating in an infrared sauna releases excess water weight and toxins, increases metabolism, lowers cortisol levels, and you can burn up to 900 calories per session.

Pain Management: Far-infrared light waves increase the flow of nutrients to the joints, muscles, and tissues, which increases mobility. Infrared saunas also loosen stiff muscles.

At City Sweats, chromotherapy is included in your infrared sauna session. Chromotherapy is the science of using color to adjust body vibrations to frequencies that result in health and harmony. Each color is related to different physical symptoms. Visit the City Sweats website for more information on the different colors of chromotherapy and which benefits each one provides.

I love the City Sweats’ relaxation room where I can wind down after my session. They provide complimentary tea and oranges for you to enjoy while dipping your toes into soft sand. City Sweats also offers house-made tonics that you can drink before or after your sweat sesh—they all provide different benefits, including promoting gut health and reducing inflammation.

City Sweats offers memberships, single sessions, packages, and various specials. For more information or to book a session, visit www.citysweats.com.
