CurrentBody Wellness Infrared Sauna Blanket

I have been intrigued by Sauna Blankets for quite some time, I have seen them pop up on targeted ads on my social media feed and I have read quite a few articles about them, so I was really excited to try my very own from CurrentBody which arrived around 12 weeks ago now.  I wanted to really try this blanket out and give it a thorough review before sharing it and the only thing I can say in short it - I didn't know I needed one until now.
CurrentBody Wellness Infrared Sauna Blanket
If asked would you burn calories and reduce stress at home with infrared heat therapy then the answer is always going to be yes, coupled with any excuse to get out of the ironing and lay down and relax.  The Infrared Sauna Blanket ticks all of those boxes without the need to go to the gym and sit in their sauna or pray for a spa day to take advantage of what is to offer there. 

So what is the CurrentBody Wellness Infrared Sauna Blanket

The CurrentBody Sauna Blanket is to all intents and purposes a portable infrared sauna wrap designed for easy use at home or wherever you choose to take it. It works by emitting infrared heat which penetrates deep into muscles and tissues, providing therapeutic benefits similar to a traditional sauna. Unlike the full, wooden infrared saunas you might be used too, the CurrentBody Sauna Blanket is not only compact but also foldable, and easy to store. So if you are short of space, but don't have time to go to a sauna, this is an ideal compromise.

Before and after your session

Like any treatment, it is recommended to drink 200ml to 300ml of water before your session, and drinking a glass afterwards to replenish your body’s hydration levels and trust me, you will be needing that water.

Getting Started

This Sauna Blanket is so easy to use, I assumed I had been using it wrongly, despite reading the 'how to' advice online.  You simply need to find a flat surface - the floor or bed being perfect, you grab a towel to lay on inside the blanket (it comes with one and a pillow) and also wear very loose clothing or you can wear nothing if that is your preference.  At this point, the default setting on the timer of the blanket is 45 minutes, but the available range is 30 to 60 minutes, so depending on the time you have available you can change the options to suit you. Then comes the temperature. I would advise not trying it on the highest temperature for the first time, but slowly work your way through the heat settings until you are comfortable. This Sauna Blanket gives you the option to adjust the temperature from 30˚C to 75˚C, once chosen you are ready for some R&R.
CurrentBody Wellness Infrared Sauna Blanket
Unlike traditional saunas which heat the air around you, the infrared saunas use infrared lamps to warm your body directly. In doing so, this generates chemical reactions, raising the body's internal temperature and triggering the natural cooling response—sweat and when you sweat your body eliminates toxins.  As well as the ability to burn up to 600 calories an hour, what I use this Sauna Blanket for is stress relieving and the excuse to grab my phone, put on a serial killer podcast and just do nothing, not only does that elevate your mood but it is just so relaxing to use. For reference purposes, it is 180cm x 180cm and is very roomy!

Here’s how the Infrared Sauna Blanket benefits your body:
  • Burns calories as you relax
  • Regulates stress and anxiety
  • Improves your mood with endorphins
  • Reduces inflammation
  • Strengthens your immune system
  • Eliminates toxins as you sweat
  • Improves sleep
  • Increases mental focus and clarity

Review

I have a very stressful job, blogging and social media provide light relief from a manic day in the office. Sitting for long hours at a desk can play havoc with my back, neck and shoulders, so any form of relief is always welcome.  I also have an old pre-covid ankle ligament injury which is still painful most days and is swollen, couple with Plantar Fasciitis, walking can be quite the chore.  So having read that infrared lights can help with inflammation, rather than wrap my CurrentBody LED Mask around my ankle, I now use this blanket to help - and it really does help.

For me personally, I have noticed a big difference in both water retention and bloating which has culminated in a loss of around 8lbs (3.6kg) in what was just over 5 and a half weeks of use. So whilst it is just water weight rather than fat loss – I do feel and look much better and my clothes now fit much better.  

However, the biggest benefit for me is that it is just incredibly relaxing to just lay inside the blanket and be warm, whether I am laid listening to a podcast, or just taking a moment to do absolutely nothing - not something I excel at doing!

How much does it cost?

The CurrentBody Wellness Infrared Sauna Blanket is currently on sale for £549. However, if you use my code RACHELCB you get 10% off and it will work on all CurrentBody products.

Frequently Asked Questions

As always, please consult your GP or other medical professionals to seek advice on whether this is the right device for you, especially if you are on any medication.

1. Is the CurrentBody Sauna Blanket Safe?
Yes, the CurrentBody Sauna Blanket has been designed with safety in mind. As with any sauna device, it is really important to stay hydrated and avoid excessive use, so ensure you drink a glass of water before and after use. Also check the contraindications of sauna on health before purchasing.

The blanket also has built-in safety features, including an automatic shut-off function.

2. How Long Should I Use the Sauna Blanket?
As advised, anyone trying a Sauna Blanket for the first time should start with a 15-20 minute session and then gradually work up to the full hour. You should also start at a lower temperature and then gradually increase it to higher temperatures, during this time you will find the setting that is right for you.

3. How Often Can I Use It?

It is said that most people will benefit from using the Sauna Blanket 2-3 times per week, though many do enjoy it daily. When mine arrived, I started with a few sessions per week and now use it 3-4 times a week if time allows.

4. Does the Sauna Blanket Really Help with Weight Loss?
The sauna blanket can aid in temporary weight loss through sweating and calorie burning. However, as with all things, for sustainable weight loss, it should be used alongside a balanced diet and regular exercise.

Introducing Achillea Beauty

I was introduced to Achillea Beauty quite a few months ago now, before Christmas in fact and since then, I have been getting to know a few of their products.

Introducing Achillea Beauty

Achillea Beauty is pioneering a unique approach to skincare by developing products specifically designed to enhance and protect your skin during physical activity. Their innovative, motion-activated beauty trio is crafted to work in harmony with your body's natural responses to exercise, ensuring your skin receives optimal care before, during, and after workouts.

The Science Behind Exercise-Activated Skincare

During exercise, increased blood circulation delivers more nutrients and oxygen to skin cells, boosting cellular turnover and collagen production. Achillea Beauty leverages this heightened state by formulating products that maximize the delivery and effectiveness of active ingredients when your skin is most receptive. This targeted approach ensures that your skincare routine works in sync with your fitness regimen for optimal results.

Achillea Beauty's Signature Product Line

Achillea Beauty offers a curated selection of products tailored to support your skin throughout your workout journey:

  • A Drop of Magic Spray

  • Kick Some Dirt Cleanser

  • Jelly By Now Mask

I have been kindly gifted two of these products - A Drop of Magic Spray and Kick Some Dirt Cleanser.

Starting with Kick Some Dirt Cleanser which is described as being a versatile micellar cleanser designed for both pre- and post-workout skincare routines. 

This rinse-free formula effectively removes makeup, dirt, and impurities without stripping the skin's natural moisture, thanks to nourishing ingredients like Rosa damascena flower water, Aloe barbadensis leaf juice, and Achillea millefolium extract. 

I cannot explain to you just how incredible this smells, if you love the scent of fresh roses, then that is the scent in a bottle, I love it.  'Kick Some Dirt' micellar cleanser is formulated with a blend of natural and effective ingredients designed to cleanse and nourish the skin:
  • Rosa Damascena Flower Water: Known for its soothing and hydrating properties, it helps to calm the skin while providing gentle cleansing.
  • Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice: Commonly known as aloe vera, this ingredient offers moisturizing and healing benefits, leaving the skin feeling refreshed.
  • Citrus Aurantium Amara Flower Water: Derived from bitter orange blossoms, it provides a subtle, natural fragrance and helps to tone the skin.
  • Achillea Millefolium Extract: Also known as yarrow extract, it possesses anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties, promoting skin health.
  • Croton Lechleri Resin Extract: Commonly referred to as dragon's blood, this extract is known for its healing and antioxidant properties, aiding in skin regeneration.
To use, simply soak a reusable cotton pad with the cleanser and gently sweep over your face, eyes, lips, and neck until the pad remains clean—no rinsing necessary. On my skin, I am always amazed at how much 'dirt' is removed from my skin after a day of wandering around London and this cleanser is so gentle it causes no irritation and it leaves you with that squeaky clean skin feeling.

A Drop of Magic Spray is a facial spray which is a results-driven hero product, rich in antioxidants that deliver a burst of hydration to support the skin during exercise. Infused with biologically active tripeptide, fruit stem cell extracts, and hyaluronic acid, it provides time-released hydration without clogging pores, resulting in a plumping effect and luminous finish that lasts beyond your workout. 

For me, walking around London, hopping on and off the tube is a workout in itself and ive carried this mist with me for the last few months and whilst it is a fine mist which doesn't soak the skin through. 'A Drop of Magic' facial spray is formulated with a blend of potent, skin-loving ingredients:
  • Rosa Damascena Flower Water: Known for its soothing and anti-inflammatory properties, it helps to calm and hydrate the skin.
  • Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice: Provides deep hydration and has healing properties that benefit the skin during and after workouts.
  • Achillea Millefolium Extract: Also known as yarrow extract, it possesses antiseptic and anti-inflammatory qualities, promoting skin healing.
  • Pouteria Lucuma Pulp Extract: Rich in antioxidants, it aids in protecting the skin from environmental stressors.
  • Hesperidin Methyl Chalcone: A flavonoid that helps to strengthen capillaries and reduce inflammation.
It smells incredible, it is hydrating and what I love is just how soothing it is, a definite need for those incredibly hot stuffy days!

Commitment to Sustainability and Environmental Conservation

Achillea Beauty is deeply committed to environmental stewardship. They source clean ingredients transparently, ensuring each component can be traced back to its origin. By focusing on materials that support a circular economy and minimizing the use of virgin resources, they strive to reduce their carbon footprint. Additionally, all packaging is 100% recycled and recyclable, reflecting their dedication to sustainability.

In partnership with organisations like Forests Without Frontiers, Achillea Beauty supports conservation projects and educates their audience on the importance of preserving natural resources. Their products are handcrafted with love and respect for the environment, emphasizing the beauty of wildflower meadows, ancient woodlands, and spring waters.

Experience Skincare That Moves With You

Achillea Beauty's innovative approach ensures that your skincare routine complements your active lifestyle. By harnessing the body's natural responses during exercise, their products provide targeted care that enhances your skin's health and appearance. Embrace a skincare regimen that moves with you and supports positive environmental change with Achillea Beauty.

What is family dentistry?

What is family dentistry?
Image Credit

When it comes to maintaining a healthy smile for the whole family, finding the right dental care provider is essential.

Family dentistry is a branch of dental care that focuses on providing comprehensive oral health services for patients of all ages, from young children to seniors.

But what exactly does a family dentist do, and why should you consider choosing one for your household?

What does a family dentist do?

A family dentist offers a broad range of dental services designed to meet the needs of every family member, ensuring continuity of care from childhood through adulthood.

These services typically include:

  • Routine check-ups and cleanings: Preventative care is crucial in maintaining oral health and catching potential issues early.
  • Fluoride treatments and sealants: Especially beneficial for children, these treatments help strengthen teeth and prevent cavities.
  • Fillings and restorations: Treating decay or damage with durable, natural-looking fillings.
  • Gum disease treatment: Helping patients maintain healthy gums through scaling, root planing, and other periodontal treatments.
  • Orthodontic assessments: Identifying misalignment issues early and providing options for correction.
  • Cosmetic treatments: Services such as teeth whitening and veneers to enhance the appearance of your smile.

The benefits of choosing a family dentist

Choosing a family dentist comes with a variety of benefits, including:
  1. Convenience: With one dentist for the entire family, you can schedule appointments for multiple members on the same day, reducing travel time and disruptions to your routine.
  2. Comprehensive care: Family dentists offer a wide array of treatments, meaning you won’t have to visit multiple specialists for different dental needs.
  3. Familiarity and comfort: Seeing the same dentist over time helps build trust and reduces anxiety, especially for children and those with dental phobia.
  4. Preventative focus: Family dentists monitor oral health over the years, identifying patterns and preventing future issues before they become major problems.

When should you take your child to a family dentist?

It’s recommended that children visit the dentist as soon as their first tooth appears or by their first birthday.

Early visits allow the dentist to assess development, guide oral hygiene, and help children become accustomed to the dental environment.

Finding the right family dentist

When searching for a family dentist, consider factors such as location, services offered, experience, and patient reviews.

A welcoming, child-friendly atmosphere and a dentist who takes the time to explain treatments can make all the difference in ensuring a positive experience for your family.

If you're looking for a trusted and experienced St Helens dental practice, consider a provider that offers high-quality family dentistry services tailored to your needs.

Is a family dentist the right choice for you?

Family dentistry is all about providing lifelong dental care, ensuring that every member of your household enjoys healthy teeth and gums. By choosing a skilled and compassionate family dentist, you can make oral health a priority for your loved ones, creating a foundation for beautiful, lasting smiles.

What is PRP hair treatment?

If you are living with thinning hair or even hair loss, it can really affect your confidence.

Whether you are male or female, PRP hair treatment could be the solution for you.

But what is PRP and how does it improve the amount or thickness of your hair?

PRP hair treatment – everything you need to know

PRP hair treatment is a safe, non-surgical option for those looking to stimulate hair growth.

Instead of relying on ineffective and complicated chemicals or proteins found in hair oils and shampoos or complex cosmetic surgeries, PRP hair treatment uses your own blood products to rejuvenate your hair.

PRP (platelet-rich plasma) is extracted from a small blood donation and is injected back into the target area to introduce more growth factors. These growth factors can be used on injuries or more cosmetic concerns like hair loss, to stimulate the body’s natural healing process and improve results.

In the case of PRP for hair growth, if patients come in for treatment for the recommended three sessions, you can expect results such as:
  • Thicker hair growth
  • Reduced levels of hair loss – it should be noted that there will still be a normal level of hair loss, at a maximum of 150 hairs per day
  • Increased hair thickness
  • Reinvigorated hair growth in balding or thinning areas
  • Boosted self-esteem


What is the PRP hair treatment success rate?

You should be aware that results can differ depending on a range of factors, including the severity of your hair loss before treatment, the treatment protocol you undertake (how many sessions and how regularly you have them), and individual patient differences.

However, our experienced practitioners see patients who undergo PRP hair treatment with results lasting 12-24 months, with a small number benefitting from a top-up treatment every 6-12 months. This is expected if you have all three sessions.

Similar results have been found in research and clinical trials, with most patients experiencing success rates of 60-80%. Results included noticeable hair growth and improved hair density, even in those with androgenetic alopecia (male or female pattern baldness).

For this reason, as well as enjoying and styling your new luscious locks, your self-esteem could absolutely skyrocket – influencing all aspects of your life, including your professional, social, and romantic life.

Can PRP be used as part of a combined treatment schedule?

Depending on your unique circumstances, some patients with more drastic hereditary hair loss can be advised to use PRP hair treatment alongside other interventions, like Minoxidil.

Once used to treat high blood pressure, Minoxidil is now used as a topical solution that prevents further hair loss and encourages hair regrowth by increasing blood supply to the hair follicle.

If your GP or pharmacist has prescribed you Minoxidil, be sure to ask if you are eligible for PRP hair treatment – they will be able to advise you if there is a reason you should avoid it.

Choose PRP hair treatment for boosted hair growth

While it might sound a bit space-age and futuristic, PRP has actually been safely used in medicine since the 1970s.

As such, the crossover into cosmetic treatments and hair regrowth strategies is trustworthy and has proven efficacy, so as long as you choose a reputable provider, you should be good to grow!

You’ll have long and lovely locks in no time!
