At AGEIST, we’ve been turning up the heat and diving into the world of heat therapy technology to increase our thermo-flexibility and improve our overall well-being. The benefits of sauna bathing are many, and while there are different types of saunas out there, none of them are as convenient, private, portable, cost-effective, and easy to clean as the Infrared Sauna Blanket by the multi-award-winning brand BON CHARGE. This sauna allows you to access the benefits of heat therapy with ease, in the most comfortable setting of all—your home.
Heat Therapy at Home
Using evidence-based technology, BON CHARGE’s portable, foldable sauna blanket uses far-infrared red light therapy, which generates heat. What makes their Infrared Sauna Blanket so sweet is that it allows you to get closer to the heat source than a regular box infrared sauna, so you can have a more effective session.
While using a traditional box sauna welcomes a communal aspect to the experience, this option provides privacy and full control over your session. With a timer function that ranges from five minutes to one hour and a temperate range of 77 to 176℉ (25 to 80℃), you can fully personalize your sauna experience using a controller. Simply set it, crawl in, zip yourself up, and get your sweat on. (Think of it like a sleeping bag with superpowers.)
The Benefits of the Infrared Sauna Blanket
With optimal use, BON CHARGE’s Infrared Sauna Blanket can help you on your journey toward better sleep, recovery, beauty, and wellness.
- Sleep Better: Lower your stress, fall asleep faster, and enjoy a deeper, more restful sleep.
- Recover Quicker: Soothe your aching muscles and accelerate your recovery time between workouts more effectively.
- Boost Your Beauty: Improve your overall complexion and skin well-being by reducing puffiness and achieving more vibrant skin.
- Live Well: Getting a good sweat not only helps support your body’s purification pathways, but it can also support weight loss and leave you feeling more energized.
Four Tips to Sweat the Best
Our founder, David, loves his Infrared Sauna Blanket by BON CHARGE. In fact, he found that it was just as effective as raising his core temperature as other saunas he’d used. How did he know that? By measuring his heart rate. For David, sitting in a sauna that was roughly 183℉ for 20 minutes raised his heart rate to 95 bpm, and he got the same result when chillin’ in BON CHARGE.
Recently, he shared some tips to sweat the best and make the most of your sauna blanket:
1. Dress Accordingly
Change into some clothing you don’t mind getting wet—because you’re going to get really hot. If you have a set of long-sleeved cotton PJs that have seen better days, you’ve just found a new use for them. Hot tip: Try to avoid using the blanket with lots of exposed bare skin and don’t wear synthetic fabrics. These trap heat and moisture, which can cause skin irritation. Plus, some synthetic materials may release chemicals when exposed to high heat, and you don’t want to absorb those into your body. Opt for natural fibers to let your skin breathe properly and sweat effectively.
2. Chill Out While You Heat Up
Lay on the sofa while you listen to some music, a podcast, or an audiobook. Since your head is positioned outside of the blanket, you can pop on some headphones and choose your ideal soundscape to fully immerse yourself in the experience.
3. Wipe to Clean
After you’re done getting your sweat on, simply take a damp cloth and a mild disinfectant to spray and wipe down your blanket so it’s clean and good to go for your next session. Hot Tip: Use the Infrared Sauna Blanket Insert. Made of premium, moisture-wicking waffle cotton fabric, it’s designed to fit right inside the vegan leather sauna blanket to keep your drier, absorb your sweat, and make your cleanup post-session easier.
4. Get in a Routine
The best way to use your blanket and feel results is to use it consistently, ideally two to three times a week. For David, he found that sticking with a routine resulted in better sleep.
