Perspire Sauna Studio to Open First Texas Location in Austin - Summer 2019

New Health and Wellness Infrared Sauna Studio in West Lake Hills to Feature Full-Spectrum Infrared and Light Therapy AUSTIN, TX (March 21, 2019) – Perspire Sauna Studio, an original infrared sauna therapy spa with locations in California and Atlanta, is excited to announce the opening of its first Texas location, in Austin. The 2,045-square-foot infrared sauna studio is slated to open its doors in the Westbank Shopping Center in West Lake Hills in summer 2019. “I was shocked that a health-centric city like Austin had such limited access to infrared sauna therapy,” says Perspire Sauna Studio Austin Owner Doug Schaaf. “When I was visiting Orange County, I discovered Perspire and immediately fell in love with the brand, its mission, and its values. Perspire aims to provide people from all walks of life with the opportunity to benefit from infrared sauna therapy, and I’m excited to finally bring this therapy to Austin.” Perspire will offer forty-minute infrared sauna sessions, complete with private rooms, featuring premium amenities, including Smart TVs programmed with Netflix and Pandora, and cold towel service after each session. The saunas are equipped with full spectrum infrared heat waves that penetrate deep into the cells, joints, muscles, and tissue, speeding oxygen flow and increasing circulation while removing impurities that build up over time. Regular infrared sauna sessions help detoxify the body as it rids itself of accumulated highly toxic materials, such as lead, mercury, nicotine, pesticides, and other organic and inorganic compounds. As the body is producing sweat and pumping blood, it is also burning 200-400 calories per session. A sauna session eliminates deeply embedded impurities and dead skin cells, helping with skin purification and leaving the skin glowing and immaculately clean.   In addition to Perspire’s infrared sauna therapy, each sauna comes equipped with medical-grade chromotherapy technology, a method of treatment that uses colors of electromagnetic light to treat various diseases and ailments. Color Light Therapy, also known as color light therapy, has been used to treat all kinds of medical conditions, from reducing swelling and inflammation to pain relief, accelerating healing, improving circulation, sleeping patterns, and regulating mood.   "We have seen amazing growth each year as more people seek healthier alternatives to harmful pharmaceuticals in order to feel better,” says Perspire Co-Founder and CEO Lee Braun. “The word is spreading, and, since Austin is one of those communities that has been at the forefront of progressive health and wellness, we're really excited to bring this transformational experience to the city.”   As the first of its kind in Austin, Perspire’s infrared saunas provide a gentle and soothing therapeutic heat that supports relaxation, relieves aches and pains, and helps muscles recover faster, leaving customers fully refreshed, rejuvenated, and renewed. The new Texas location will feature thirteen rooms, each equipped with a state-of-the-art infrared Clearlight Sanctuary® Sauna, which offers the lowest and safest electromagnetic fields and extremely low-frequency levels of any infrared sauna technology. Five of the sauna rooms will include a personal shower, including an ADA-compliant sauna room and shower. Design elements of each sauna room will feature a detailed glass-front design, recessed accent lights for mood and reading, and a glass skylight roof.   Each sauna session can be purchased and scheduled through either the Perspire Sauna Studio app, Mindbody app, or Perspire’s website. New clients can opt for the Introductory Week Pass or purchase a special founding membership that offers members access to discounted prices.   The first Austin Perspire Sauna Studio will be located at 3300 Bee Cave Road, Austin, TX 78746.
