We bring light, hope and happiness to people everywhere.
Sunlighten’s story began over 25 years ago when Connie and Aaron Zack watched her brother’s life transform with the help of infrared light. A decade of failing to find relief from debilitating illness had brought him to a dark place in his health battle with chronic fatigue, mercury poisoning and spinal injury. A dentist recommended infrared light therapy, and it changed his life. He came to life again, able to create his art and do what he loves once again. He founded Sunlight saunas to share what he had found and bring this healing light to others.
Inspired by his experience, the Zacks harnessed their history as pharmaceutical associates and committed everything they had to growing Sunlighten and mastering infrared light, bringing the most amount of infrared—and most health and longevity benefits—into the body so others could live their best lives, too. They’ve poured their lives into helping others through innovating and leading the infrared sauna industry.
Most sauna studios buy their cabins in from a manufacturer. Here, the manufacturer runs the studio.
That matters when you have a question about the saunas. We designed these saunas and hold the patents on them, so when you ask a question like: “How do I get the most out of my session?” or “How do I build a session around recovery?” you’re asking the people who engineered it. Not someone working from a manual.
More than anything, we care about you and your long-term well-being. We’re committed to innovating wellness products and services you can use to improve and extend your quality of life. And for over 25 years we’ve been building a global community of businesses, consumers, and trusted experts to support you every step of the way.
Four things carry the claim, and all four are checkable. Two are patents, one is an independent laboratory result, and one is simply the physics of the light itself.
Sunlighten’s heating technology, and the reason the Amplify can run at a higher heat without giving up the shorter wavelengths. Aimed at fitness recovery and deep detox.
In the mPulse: red light, near, mid and far infrared each on their own control rather than one blended output, with six preset wellness programmes built on top of them.
Tested independently by Vitatech Electromagnetics rather than measured in-house. It is the quietest of the four claims and the one that took the most engineering.
Infrared is the part of sunlight you feel as warmth. It’s what our heaters produce, and it isn’t ultraviolet, the shorter wavelength that causes burning and skin damage. The warmth of the sun, none of the harm.
The published studies and the patents behind all of this sit in Sunlighten’s clinical library.
