Infrared Sauna
Infrared Sauna Therapy in Woodbridge — Deeper Heat, Better Results, Total Comfort

A Deeper, More Effective Sweat — Without the Suffocating Heat
Traditional saunas heat the air around you using steam or convection, requiring very high ambient temperatures to produce a sweat — which many people find uncomfortable or difficult to tolerate for long periods. Infrared saunas work completely differently.
Infrared light penetrates directly into your body’s tissues, heating you from the inside out rather than heating the surrounding air. This means localized heat is delivered right to the source — producing a deeper, more meaningful sweat at temperatures that feel genuinely comfortable, rather than oppressive.
The result: a more tolerable session that produces better outcomes than a traditional sauna at higher temperatures.
Infrared vs. Traditional Sauna
- Heat source: Infrared light penetrates the body directly — traditional saunas heat the air and rely on humidity
- Temperature: Infrared operates at 45–65°C vs. traditional sauna at 80–100°C — far more comfortable
- Penetration: Infrared heats tissue up to 4cm below the skin surface — traditional heat stays superficial
- Sweat quality: Infrared sweat contains more toxins and metabolic waste per unit than traditional sauna sweat
- No steam or humidity: No suffocating feeling — you can breathe normally and stay comfortably for the full session
- Caloric burn: Up to 600 calories in a 50-minute infrared session
Naturopathic Hydrotherapy Option
NatCan also offers Infrared Sauna as part of a Naturopathic Hydrotherapy program — supervised by our licensed Naturopathic Doctors (Dr. Perfetto, Dr. Sachdev, and Dr. Santos). This approach integrates the sauna into a structured naturopathic treatment plan, with an initial assessment to confirm suitability and set therapeutic goals.
A Naturopathic Hydrotherapy Infrared Sauna Assessment or Naturopathic Initial Intake is required before the first ND-supervised session. See pricing below. Packages and discounts are not available for ND-supervised sessions.

Benefits of Infrared Sauna Therapy
Infrared sauna delivers a range of well-documented physiological benefits that make it one of the most versatile and accessible wellness therapies available.
The heat from infrared sauna significantly elevates heart rate and metabolic rate — producing a cardiovascular and caloric effect comparable to moderate physical exercise. An effective complement to a weight management or fitness program.
Infrared heat causes blood vessels to dilate, increasing circulation throughout the body. Improved blood flow supports tissue healing, reduces muscle soreness, and delivers oxygen and nutrients more effectively to every organ and system.
Infrared sauna induces a deep, metabolically active sweat that releases toxins, heavy metals, and metabolic waste at concentrations higher than those produced by traditional sauna or exercise-induced sweating alone.
The elevated core body temperature produced by infrared sauna mimics a natural fever response — stimulating the immune system, increasing white blood cell production, and creating an environment that is inhospitable to pathogens.
The warmth of infrared sauna activates the parasympathetic nervous system — promoting deep relaxation, reducing cortisol levels, and leaving most clients feeling profoundly calm and restored after their session.
Infrared heat penetrates deep into muscle and connective tissue, reducing lactic acid buildup, relieving joint stiffness, and accelerating recovery after physical activity or injury — making it a popular tool among athletes and active individuals.
What to Expect at Your Infrared Sauna Session
Infrared sauna sessions at NatCan are simple, comfortable, and completely self-directed. Here is what to expect:
Book Online
Select your session type (30 or 50 min, 1 or 2 people) and preferred time. Tuesday and Friday sessions qualify for the 50-for-30 promotion. Book well in advance on popular promo days.
Arrive & Prepare
Arrive well hydrated. Bring or use the provided towels. Wear minimal clothing or a swimsuit inside the sauna. Avoid eating a heavy meal immediately before your session.
Your Session
Relax inside the infrared sauna for your chosen session length. You will begin to sweat meaningfully within the first 10–15 minutes. Sessions are private and comfortable — you can listen to music, meditate, or simply rest.
Post-Session Care
Allow time to cool down and rehydrate thoroughly after your session. Many clients feel deeply relaxed and lighter after. Avoid cold showers immediately — allow your body temperature to return to normal gradually.
What Our Clients Are Saying
“I have been coming to NatCan for the infrared sauna every Tuesday and Friday for the promotion and it has become one of the highlights of my week. The difference in how my body feels — less tense, less bloated, more energized — is genuinely noticeable. I can’t recommend it enough.”
“My ND recommended infrared sauna as part of my naturopathic hydrotherapy plan and the results have been impressive. I was sceptical at first but the deep sweat at comfortable temperatures is completely different from a gym sauna. I feel like I’m actually doing something meaningful for my body every session.”
“My partner and I book the 2-person session on Fridays for the promotion and it has become our weekly reset ritual. The sauna is private, clean, and genuinely comfortable — not the suffocating experience we expected. We always leave feeling incredible. The Tuesday / Friday deal is unbelievable value.”
