Summer can be hot. Maybe it’s a dry heat or thick humidity, either way it can sometimes feel like a sauna. So why jump in the Wellness Pod when you can just go outside? 

Here are 10 reasons to encourage you to continue your sauna routine throughout the hot months of summer:

1) Manage Summer Heat

If you are spending 20 minutes enjoying the variable heat of  the wellness pod, then the 36 degree day outside isn’t going to feel as hot as it did prior to the pod. It’s also a great way to enjoy the heat away from the damaging rays of the sun. 

2) Muscle Relaxation

Wellness pod provides a calming and relaxing space. Being immersed in a pocket of hot air is therapeutic for sore joints and achy muscles. If you suffer from arthritis or other physical pain, Wellness pod is a wonderful way to relax those muscles and put your entire body and mind at ease.

3) Mood Booster

Studies show that the infrared and heat therapy has the same effect on your body as a mini workout. Endorphins are released, giving you a jolt of new energy to face the rest of the day or to relax even more deeply for a good night’s sleep.  

4) Stress Reducer

Escaping to the quiet and calm of a pod helps to lift the burdens of a chaotic day. Take a deep breath and let the heat and steam do all the work. 

5) Burning Calories and Shedding Water Weight

The days of summer are longer and that might mean staying up later and doing more activities, but it can also mean more time to eat. What better way to burn a few burger calories and shed all that watermelon weight than by jumping in the pod for a short session. With an increase in heart rate, your metabolism starts to rise prompting the body to burn more calories. 

6) Improves Skin

The intense and controlled heat of a Wellness pod stimulates circulation within your body. This helps remove dead cells, relax facial tensions, improve skin elasticity, and detoxes out unhelpful bacteria. Ultimately leaving your skin refreshed, nourished, and glowing. Red light therapy is brilliant for anti aging for your full body. 

7) Pain Relief

Heat reduces inflammation releasing any stress, tension, or aches in the body. The high heat of the Wellness pod immediately relaxes every part of the body, encouraging blood circulation and any pain that is held or ignored throughout the day.  

8) Aids the Immune System

Is there anything more obnoxious than a summer cold? The Wellness pod can help boost the immune system. The high heat tricks your body into thinking you have a fever. Your body will then naturally produce more white blood cells to fight off any infection. The steam also helps clear sinuses and airways. So sit back and breathe deeply. 

9) Athletic Training

Running a marathon this summer? Or just beginning a new training program? The Wellness pod can help! The pod helps acclimate the body to higher heat to better prepare you for a hot or humid race day. The high heat also increases production of red blood cells giving you more energy and oxygen for a longer and harder workout. And the best part? A Wellness Pod session helps you to recover more quickly after a workout. 

10) Relaxing Escape

Summer can be chaotic, so escape to the quiet sanctuary at AWS and Wellness Pod for some peace and quiet. The Wellness Pod is designed to be enjoyed all summer long, and continuing your sauna routine will lead to nothing but goodness.
