What to Expect

Body Wrap Services

With COVID-19 in mind, please reschedule your appointment if you've been sick, or been around someone who's sick. We are taking preventative measures such as wearing gloves, face masks and gowns during your session to keep you, our family, & our community safe.  You will be directed to use the restroom and to wash/sanitize your hands upon entering our studio.  Face masks or face coverings are optional to wear during your appointment. We have the right to deny service to anyone who doesn't comply with our policies. Please do not bring any extra guests with you. We thoroughly clean & sanitize before, during and after each client. Clients cannot exceed 250lbs.

​

This service is not recommended to those who are claustrophobic. 

​

We do require undergarments (underwear/bra) during the body wrap. Shorts are required for men. Bring extra undergarments and socks to your appointment. Please do not apply make-up. Do not drink caffeine 2 hours prior to your appointment. Aim to drink least 64oz of water or a gallon of water the day before your wrap. Eat something light 2 hours prior to your wrap. The Infrared Body Wrap is similar to a heated sleeping bag. You will be placed in our treatment bed. Our staff will assist you in getting in and out of the infrared wrap. The wrap will not get hot enough to burn your skin, since it is heated by Infrared. Infrared heat is absorbed into your body, versus the traditional sauna, which heats the area that you step into. Your body temperature is what increases and where the feeling of being "hot" comes from. Your heart rate will also increase during the detox, but at a slower, deeper rhythm than traditional exercise. The first 20-to-30 minutes of the 50 minute detox is generally described as being "easy" and "cozy". Most feel that around the 35 to 40-minute mark, you will notice the heat, and your heart rate and sweating becomes more intense.
 
We will check on you throughout the session and provide water and a fan to keep you cool during your sweat session. Your body is receiving the maximum benefits in those last 15-minutes and the goal is to try to stay in the wrap for the full 50 minutes. However, if at any time a level of discomfort takes place during the session, please notify our staff to stop. Participants may feel dizzy and lightheaded after the session. So we recommend getting up slowly and taking a few moments to relax before changing.  
 
Finally, the sweat you experience during the Infrared Body Wrap is different than the sweat you experience at the gym or exercising. It generally will have a different feel and smell on your skin, because it pulls out the deepest layer of toxins. You will notice you tend to stop sweating almost immediately after toweling off. Another common reaction is that people do not have that sense of feeling "sweaty" or "dirty" after the detox. 

​​

It is not recommended to shower for at least 30 minutes after your sweat session. Your heart rate and metabolic rate is still at an elevated level and should slowly come down to your normal body temperature on its own. Your body is still receiving the benefits and burning calories for a few hours after you complete the sweat session.


Have realistic expectations. The Infrared Body Wrap treatment combined with a healthy lifestyle will get you the results you desire more quickly.

Body Sculpting is a non-invasive, non-surgical way of losing inches and getting rid of body fat. It reduces your body circumference and can help you gain the body shape you have always wanted. All Treatments are safe, non-invasive, painless and with no downtime. 

​

It is essential that you follow these instructions for optimal results from body sculpting services. ​

  • Treatments are 60 to 90 minutes long, and are best performed in a series of 9-12 sessions, twice a week for the first 2 treatments and once a week moving forward, depending on area treated.

  • Treatment areas are: Stomach, Hips/Butt, Thighs, Upper Arms, Back and Chin.

  • Treatments are focused on only one area per series. 

  • Treatments do not hurt, and are FDA approved.

  • Although your treatment is completely painless, you will hear a pitched hum or low to high ringing in your ears. This is completely normal/safe, and should be expected. If you feel that is causing discomfort then please let our staff know and she will adjust the frequency for you.

Who is a GOOD candidate?

A good candidate for these treatments is someone who is dedicated and committed to a more healthy lifestyle. Physically and mentally. Someone who works out 3-5x a week and practices a low carb diet. It is necessary to drink at least 2 liters of water before and after each treatment in order to eliminate the dissolved fat. Lastly, spend approximately 30 minutes of mild exercise of your choice to increase your metabolic rate to aid in the elimination of the liquified fat. 

​

Please remember that you have lost a significant amount of fat from one area of your body but the weight loss can be reversed by drinking alcohol, binge eating, and eating too many carbohydrates.
