Beyond Pills: How Infrared Therapy Targets the Root of Chronic Inflammation


Listen Later

Connie Zack explains how infrared sauna therapy reduces inflammation, boosts mitochondria, and supports whole-body healing beyond pills.


Connie Zack, co-owner of Sunlighten, breaks down how infrared therapy helps lower chronic inflammation by improving mitochondrial function, circulation, detoxification, oxidative stress, and stress resilience. She explains the differences between far-, mid-, near-infrared, and red light; why infrared feels gentler and more effective than traditional saunas; and how users can optimize sessions through hydration, binders, temperature flexibility, and consistent use. Connie also discusses choosing a safe, non-toxic sauna and how infrared therapy supports mood, longevity, and whole-body healing.


Connie Zack is the co-founder of Sunlighten™, the global leader in infrared light therapy and infrared sauna manufacturing. After seeing how spending time in an infrared sauna transformed her brother’s traumatic health issues, Connie and her husband committed everything they had to helping others through the benefits of nature’s healing infrared light.

They’ve now spent nearly 20 years bringing light, hope, and happiness to people around the world with locations in 13 countries, as well as operating an award-winning day spa at its headquarters location in Kansas City. Sunlighten delivers its promise to help people feel better so they can do more of what they love and live fully through a caring approach that drives innovation, investment, and relationships.
