So whenever I tell anyone that I work at Holland Home Leisure, they usually reply with “ohhh, that’s the pool store right?” or “I know someone who got a hot tub there” and then of course there’s always the “can you get me a good deal?”. It seems that almost everyone knows about pools and hot tubs, and the benefits of owning them! There is a real interest in creating that backyard oasis that can be fun, refreshing, and beneficial to your health.
Not everyone knows that Holland Home Leisure also sells the perfect item for your INDOOR oasis! Infrared Saunas have been steadily increasing in popularity since they were introduced to our leisure line-up in 2007. Aside from being a great way to break that chill you can’t seem to warm up from, these indoor saunas also have HUGE health benefits associated with them!
Benefit #1: DETOXIFICATION
Toxins such as sodium, alcohol, nicotine, cholesterol and carcinogenic heavy metals (lead, zinc, nickel) accumulate in the body during modern daily life. The body eliminates most toxins naturally by sweating. A quick session in your infrared sauna can stimulate the sweat glands that cleanse and detoxify the skin. The heat simply speeds up the body's natural process.

Benefit #2: PAIN RELIEF
Heat relieves pain by expanding blood vessels and increasing circulation. Better circulation allows more oxygen to reach injured areas of the body and helps reduce pain and speed up the healing process.
Benefit #3: WEIGHT CONTROLPerspiring is part of the complex thermoregulatory process of the body that increases the heart rate, cardiac output, and metabolic rate. The process requires a large amount of energy and reduces excess moisture, salt and subcutaneous fat. Fat becomes water-soluble and the body sweats out fats and toxins.

Benefit #4: EXERCISE
REALLY?
I can exercise just by sitting on my bum, listening to some tunes in a little room?
During a 10-20 minute sauna session, your heart rate increases by 50-75%. This provides the same metabolic result as physical exercise. The increased cardiac load is the equivalent to a brisk walk. AWESOME!
Benefit #5: REDUCE STRESS
Heat therapy loosens the muscles and relaxes the body. Many massage therapists use heat to provide more thorough and effective treatment. Who doesn’t need a good stress reliever in their life!

Holland Home Leisure has saunas of various shapes and sizes, for the person who wants to sweat it out alone, and also for those who like to detoxify in the company of family or friends! Our saunas also offer some great bonus features, such as light therapy and built in radio/CD players!
Why not stop in and check them out, and if you ask REALLY nicely, we’ll even heat one up for you so you can see what all the fuss is about J
