Infrared light therapy is a proven, pro-active method of tackling persistent painful back issues
Allison Huff, the founder of SweatLounge, recalls the personal experience that inspired the business. ‘For years I had suffered with debilitating back pain. Then, when I was five months’ pregnant, I lost complete control of my leg while getting into a bath. I wouldn’t wish the agony on anyone. My spinal surgeon diagnosed degenerative disc disease and two prolapsed discs in my lower vertebrae. I was told I could limp for the rest of my life.
‘For the next year, I lived with continuous pain. But then, while visiting the USA, I discovered infrared light therapy. After three sessions, my back problem had disappeared. I could move and sleep and my outlook was changed. The infrared concept was unknown here, and that’s why I launched SweatLounge: everyone deserves to live a vibrant pain-free life.
‘You will enjoy an amazing, spa-like experience at our High Road Studio. However, we are not a spa: we are a preventative healthcare and recovery business. We help people to focus on their health: if we make just one person feel better every day, it is worth it.’
Sian van Tongeren is a SweatLounge member. For her, regular infrared heat therapy has been a life-changing experience. ‘After years of struggling with my lower back due to degenerative disc disease, I had resigned myself to being in constant discomfort: sitting for long periods was painful and my walking felt restricted. However, since starting a routine of twice weekly sessions at SweatLounge, I can now sit, move and walk with ease and they have also made a noticeable positive difference to my pain levels and overall wellbeing.
‘The pods are relaxing and beautifully designed and the friendly team has built something truly special. It is an absolute game-changer for anyone who needs an natural and effective way to deal with back issues or simply wants to invest in their general health. I highly recommend SweatLounge!’
