Here's the old email I received in June about the sauna. Maybe I should have read it before you mentioned this Tella:

What is an Infrared Sauna, you may ask? Unlike traditional saunas that heat the air
around you, infrared saunas use infrared light to directly warm your body,
promoting a range of benefits that can support your CrossFit performance.
Here's why you should consider incorporating infrared sauna sessions into your routine:
1. Enhanced Muscle Recovery: Intense CrossFit workouts can lead to muscle soreness and fatigue. Infrared sauna sessions can help accelerate the recovery process by increasing blood circulation, delivering oxygen and nutrients to your muscles, and flushing out metabolic waste products.
2. Detoxification: Sweating is a natural way for our bodies to eliminate toxins. Infrared saunas induce a deep, penetrating sweat, which helps remove toxins such as heavy metals, pollutants, and chemicals from your system. This can leave you feeling rejuvenated and revitalized.
3. Pain Relief and Joint Health: If you're dealing with any discomfort from your workouts, the infrared sauna may offer relief. The gentle heat can help alleviate muscle and joint pain, improve flexibility, and promote better range of motion.
4. Stress Reduction and Relaxation: We all know that stress can hinder our progress in the gym. Infrared saunas provide a tranquil environment where you can unwind, relax, and recharge. The warmth and gentle light can help soothe your mind, reduce stress levels, and improve sleep quality.
5. Improved Skin Health: Sweating in the infrared sauna helps open up your pores and cleanse your skin deeply. This can lead to a clearer complexion, improved skin tone, and a healthy glow. Say hello to post-workout radiant skin!
