Infrared Sauna Therapy in Greenville, SC
Infrared Sauna Therapy at IHP Greenville. Dr. Hendry, DAOM — functional medicine, root-cause diagnostics, personalized care. Call (864) 365-6156.
Infrared sauna therapy uses far-infrared radiant energy to heat the body from within — penetrating 1.5–2 inches into tissue, raising core body temperature, and inducing deep, profuse sweating at lower ambient temperatures than conventional saunas. At Integrative Health Partners, Dr. Hendry offers infrared sauna therapy as part of detoxification, cardiovascular support, pain management, and recovery protocols.
How Infrared Sauna Therapy Works
Infrared sauna sessions run 20–40 minutes at 110–140°F (compared to conventional sauna's 160–190°F). The lower temperature improves tolerability while the far-infrared wavelength penetrates more deeply, producing equivalent or greater core temperature elevation than conventional saunas. Sweating facilitates elimination of heavy metals, environmental toxins, and metabolic waste products through the skin.
Conditions Treated with Infrared Sauna Therapy
Your First Appointment
Inform Dr. Hendry of any cardiovascular conditions, multiple sclerosis, or heat-sensitive neurological conditions. Drink 16–32 oz of water before each infrared sauna session and replenish electrolytes afterward. Avoid sessions immediately before or after vigorous exercise.
Why Dr. Hendry for Infrared Sauna Therapy
Dr. Hendry incorporates infrared sauna as a targeted element within comprehensive detoxification and recovery protocols — using it purposefully rather than as a generic wellness add-on.
