At Iowa Wellness Center, we use the mPulse IR sauna to promote improved circulation and relaxation. The sauna uses IR technology to directly heat the body, rather than the air around you—allowing the heat to penetrate deeper tissue. The gentle heat stimulates sweat production, which aids your body with detoxification, flushing out impurities and getting rid of toxins.
