Why your next skincare or wellness session at Lux Aesthetics should include infrared therapy.
Infrared body treatments aren’t just trendy—they’re incredibly effective. More and more clients are discovering the power of non-invasive light therapy to address not just one, but multiple concerns at once. At Lux Aesthetics in Indianapolis, we’ve integrated infrared therapy into our menu to deliver results that go far beyond a traditional facial or spa visit.
In this blog, we’re diving into the top benefits of infrared therapy, how it works, and why it’s one of the smartest investments you can make for both your skin and your overall wellness.
What Is Infrared Therapy?
Infrared therapy uses invisible wavelengths of light—specifically near-infrared and far-infrared wavelengths—to penetrate deep into the body. These wavelengths gently raise your core body temperature and stimulate your cells from within.
Unlike topical treatments that stay on the surface, infrared light:
- Increases circulation
- Stimulates collagen and elastin
- Promotes detoxification through sweating
- Reduces inflammation and discomfort
At Lux Aesthetics, our infrared sessions are done using FDA-cleared equipment, with each treatment tailored to your specific goals.
The Beauty Benefits of Infrared Therapy
🌟 1. Glowing, Even-Toned Skin
Infrared therapy boosts circulation, bringing oxygen-rich blood to the skin. This leaves you with that fresh-from-vacation glow, improved skin tone, and better nutrient delivery to your cells.
📈 2. Boosted Collagen Production
Infrared light encourages fibroblast activity, helping your skin produce more collagen and elastin. Over time, this can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improve elasticity, and firm the skin’s texture.
💉 3. Reduced Acne and Inflammation
Infrared therapy has powerful anti-inflammatory properties, making it ideal for acne-prone skin. It calms redness, reduces breakouts, and accelerates healing after extractions or peels.
🩷 4. Supports Post-Facial Recovery
Pairing infrared with treatments like dermaplaning, chemical peels, or microcurrent facials helps your skin recover faster and respond better. Think of it as the ultimate add-on to amplify your facial results.
The Wellness Benefits of Infrared Therapy
🏋️♂️ 1. Detoxification
Sweating via infrared helps flush out toxins through your lymphatic system—without the extreme heat of a traditional sauna. It’s a gentle, effective detox that leaves you feeling lighter and more energized.
✨ 2. Muscle & Joint Relief
Clients who experience joint pain, muscle soreness, or inflammation love infrared therapy for its deep-penetrating relief. Whether you work out, sit at a desk, or just want to unwind, this treatment offers lasting comfort.
🌌 3. Improved Sleep & Stress Relief
Infrared therapy encourages relaxation, reduces cortisol, and improves serotonin levels—which means better sleep and mood regulation. Many clients say they sleep more soundly after just one session.
⏰ 4. Time-Efficient, Full-Body Results
Each 30- to 45-minute session benefits your entire body. Unlike treatments focused on one area, infrared supports head-to-toe health in one seamless visit.
Why Infrared Makes Every Other Treatment Work Better
At Lux Aesthetics, we often recommend infrared as a booster to:
- Facials (increase product absorption + reduce inflammation)
- Body sculpting (enhance circulation and lymphatic flow)
- Post-treatment healing (speed skin recovery)
- Monthly skin maintenance (keep the glow going)
Think of infrared as the foundation that supports and amplifies your entire skincare and wellness routine.
