The concept of the sauna was created in Finland nearly 2000 years ago and it’s no wonder that it is still heavily used today as a great way to unwind…but did you know that it provides numerous health benefits as well?
The infrared heat from a sauna can provide relief from muscle aches, joint pain, and stiffness. It can also help reduce inflammation and promote faster muscle recovery after exercise or physical activity. It can improve your skin and even help you lose weight and improve your circulation.
Julie Bishop, a local natural health consultant and authorized Clearlight sauna reseller experienced first-hand the tremendous health benefits of using a sauna. Learn more about her journey which led her to creating her own business, The Sauna Life.
LINK nky: Can you tell us about your journey and what inspired you to become involved in the sauna industry?
Julie Bishop: In 2017, I was given a diagnosis of three months to live due to Breast Implant Illness. I had multiple sets of breast implants due to having issues with them which led to severe sickness.
After searching for answers, I came across a Facebook group discussing the same issues I was experiencing. I consulted a holistic surgeon in Cleveland, OH, who removed my implants and helped me detoxify my body. During my health journey, I discovered the benefits of infrared saunas and saw positive changes in my health within a few months. This experience made me realize the number of people suffering from illness in our toxic world. I wanted to make a difference and be able to take care of my daughter. I became an authorized reseller for Clearlight saunas which now allows me to work from home and help others improve their well-being.
LINK nky: What are some of the key benefits you’ve witnessed through your work in the sauna industry?
Julie Bishop: The most significant positive change that people notice is the improvement in their skin. Using saunas promotes vasodilation, which opens up blood vessels and leads to a “sauna-glow.” The sweating process helps detoxify the body through the pores, resulting in softer, smoother skin. Personally, I’ve seen brighter, more colorful skin and fewer wrinkles. Additionally, many people experience reduced pain in their bodies, better sleep, and a sense of calm and relaxation. In some people, saunas can also help lower blood pressure by promoting dilation and sweating out impurities and toxins. Some people have also lost weight and improved their circulation with sauna use.
LINK nky: How often do you use the sauna, and at what time of day do you find it most beneficial?
Julie Bishop: I personally use the sauna 5-6 times a week and stay in for 30-40 minutes each session. While some people prefer morning sauna sessions for an energy boost, I find that using it at night works best for me. It helps me sleep better and wind down after a busy day.
LINK nky: What sets The Sauna Life apart from other companies in terms of product quality, innovation, and customer satisfaction?
Julie Bishop: I conducted extensive research by reaching out to 30 sauna companies, including those available at Costco and Amazon. Clearlight saunas stood out for several reasons.
First, they prioritize reducing electromagnetic frequencies (EMFs), which can be harmful. Clearlight saunas provide a quiet place free from EMFs.
Second, Clearlight saunas source wood without volatile organic compounds (VOCs), avoiding toxic materials like formaldehyde that could off-gas when heated. The use of TRUcarbon ceramic heaters, designed by Dr. Raleigh Duncan, ensures optimal heat distribution and safety. These heaters consist of a carbon-ceramic-carbon layering that prevents melting or fires.
Lastly, The Sauna Life offers a limited lifetime warranty, providing customers with peace of mind. Clearlight’s commitment to quality, safety, and a non-toxic sauna cabin makes them the superior choice in the market.
LINK nky: How does The Sauna Life prioritize eco-friendly manufacturing processes and materials in its sauna products?
Julie Bishop: At The Sauna Life is committed to reselling Clearlight saunas because all of the wood in a Clearlight sauna is sourced from sustainable forests and undergoes eco-friendly kiln drying. There are no formaldehyde or toxic glues used in the manufacturing process. Instead of using glue, Clearlight uses small nails for assembly. The focus is on creating a safe and environmentally friendly sauna experience.
LINK nky: Are there any new sauna models or features on the horizon that you’d like to highlight?
Julie Bishop: We have an exciting Father’s Day special, offering discounts of $400-600 on your next sauna, depending on the size of your sauna.
