Infrared Sauna in Leamington Spa at ReGen Rooms
Heat-Based Therapy to Support Recovery, Circulation & Stress Reduction
Infrared sauna therapy uses controlled infrared heat to support circulation, muscle recovery and relaxation. At ReGen Rooms in Leamington Spa, we use advanced Sunlighten mPulse® infrared sauna technology to deliver targeted heat exposure designed to support the body’s natural recovery processes.
What Is Infrared Sauna Therapy?
Infrared sauna therapy differs from traditional saunas by heating the body directly rather than warming the surrounding air. Infrared wavelengths penetrate the skin and gently raise core body temperature, creating a physiological stress that encourages circulation, sweating and metabolic activity.
This heat-based stimulus can be beneficial for individuals looking to support recovery, relaxation and cardiovascular conditioning when used appropriately and at the right intensity.
Located in the heart of Leamington Spa, ReGen Rooms offers clinically guided infrared sauna therapy using Sunlighten mPulse technology. Clients visit us from Warwick, Kenilworth, Stratford-upon-Avon and across Warwickshire for evidence-led recovery and nervous system support.

Avoid Use on Open Wounds
HEAL BEFORE LIGHT
