Body temperature regulation for performance and recovery
Alternating hot and cold exposure for enhanced recovery, circulation, and reduced muscle soreness
Saunas using infrared light to heat the body directly rather than heating the air. Lower temperatures than traditional saunas (110-150°F vs 150-200°F), may be more tolerable for some. Growing evidence for cardiovascular and pain benefits.
Incandescent heat lamps emitting near-infrared light (700-1400nm) for combined photobiomodulation and radiant heat therapy. Deeper tissue penetration than LEDs, with heat as a feature rather than byproduct.
