There’s always been something captivating about the look and feel of a log cabin sauna.

Maybe it’s because the traditional look is rooted in ancient sauna culture, or that the texture of the timber is somewhat raw and nomadic, or even that the wonderful aroma of the timber can seemingly take you away to a faraway place where you can relax and forget about modern life.

Whatever the reason, log cabin saunas have always been a popular choice in aesthetics for a home sauna. The Premier 2 Infrared Sauna is the amalgamation of all of these reasons and incorporates the cutting-edge technology and science of today’s leading infrared saunas.

What makes a sauna good comes down to the core reasons why an individual would desire a sauna. For us, we’ve broken it down to:

  • the look and feel
  • the quality and features
  • the health benefits it provides

This article is about the Premier 2 infrared Sauna and how it ticks all the boxes for the best log cabin sauna.

Health Benefits Of An Infrared Sauna Log Cabin

The health benefits of the Premier-2 come down to the True Wave™ far-infrared heater panels being the highest quality infrared heater available. Endorsed by the likes of Ben Greenfield and Gwyneth Paltrow, the True Wave™ heaters provide a plethora of health benefits.

Detoxification:

The True Wave™ heaters penetrate deep into the fat cells of the human body, melting away and releasing any stored heavy metals and toxins. By releasing these toxins into the bloodstream the body can excrete them or detoxify through the means of sweating, the lymphatic system, and the organs. This is only possible with far-infrared wavelengths and cannot be achieved by traditional saunas or steam rooms.

Cardiovascular health:

The True Wave™ heaters improve cardiovascular health in users by increasing the heart rate, dilating blood vessels, and lowering blood pressure. There is a growing body of evidence that shows that consistent use of far-infrared heat lowers the risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality rates.

Weight loss:

Our Clearlight® Premier models have been specifically used in a study by the Binghamton University (SUNY) in New York that found that three sauna sessions a week at 30 minutes per session dropped an average of 4% body fat over a four-month period.

Muscle Recovery:

The Premier-2 increases circulation and lowers inflammation using therapeutic heat from the True Wave™ far infrared heaters. It has been shown that the far-infrared heat is favorable for the neuromuscular system to recover from maximal endurance performance.

Pain Relief:

A great tool for muscle and joint pain, aches, and stiffness. Infrared saunas have been shown to be beneficial for sufferers of arthritis, sprains, neuralgia, bursitis, muscle spasms, joint stiffness, and many other muscular-skeletal ailments.

Stress reduction:

It’s not just the act of sitting still in peace for a prolonged period of time that helps to lower your stress. Infrared saunas have been shown to lower cortisol levels related to stress, and help alleviate the symptoms of depression and anxiety. A recent study also shows the use of infrared heat as a treatment for chronic depression.

Overall, the Premier-2 provides an amazing amount of health benefits to the user, more than your traditional log cabin sauna. The Premier-2 also has the option for our Clearlight® Wellness Enhancements - complementary therapy technologies that can be added to your sauna as later upgrades.
