Boston’s Hotel Commonwealth Adds In-Room Wellness and Recovery Amenities Seldom Found Outside a Professional Gym or Spa: Featuring Clearlight, Hyperice, and The Cold Life Wellness Products, in partnership with Rekova Recovery

Spring Into Recovery and Reinvigoration While Traveling

BERKELEY, CA. March 30—

Just in time for Opening Day at Fenway Park and the 130th running of the Boston Marathon, Hotel Commonwealth is now offering guests in-room wellness amenities that promote recovery, rejuvenation and overall wellbeing. In partnership with Rekova Recovery, the hotel is inviting guests to include their stay cold plunging, red light and hand-held massage therapies, and precision pulse technology in a selection of wellness amenities that can be placed in-room so guests can remain consistent with their recovery routines. These therapies are offered to guests to boost energy, help recover faster after a workout, advance wellness goals, and revive both body and mind.

According to Tyler Therrien, Founder, Rekova Recovery, “Rekova was built to bring elite recovery experiences into everyday life, like traveling, and partnering with Hotel Commonwealth allows us to do exactly that in one of Boston’s most iconic hospitality settings. By combining cold plunge therapy, compression recovery, percussive therapy, and red light therapy, we’re giving guests access to the same recovery tools trusted by professional and world-class athletes, right in the comfort and privacy of their hotel room.”

Therrien says, “You’ll feel more active, alert, attentive, and inspired after a cold-water bath.” And actor and Boston-native, Mark Wahlberg, has publicly shared, “Cold plunging is a non-negotiable for me. It’s about discipline, recovery, and staying sharp every day.”

Says Dr. Raleigh Duncan, founder and CEO, Clearlight, “As someone who travels quite a lot during the year, I know that travel can challenge our bodies in many ways, from jet lag and disrupted sleep cycles to inflammation and muscle fatigue. By offering our FULL BODY Red Light Therapy Tower as part of Hotel Commonwealth’s Rekovery Session, we’re giving travelers a doctor-designed and science-backed way to reset their circadian rhythms, boost their cellular energy, and recover smarter while away from home.

Clearlight® Expands Its Integrated Wellness Universe with the Debut of The Clearlight® Plunge

Completing the Modern Recovery Ritual with Doctor-Designed, Science-Backed Cold Therapy Designed to Work Seamlessly with Heat and Light

Clearlight also Introduces the Next Evolution of InfraredSauna.com, Clearlight’s Online Integrated Wellness Platform

BERKELEY, CA. March 25— Clearlight®, the global pioneer and industry leader in infrared sauna technology and integrated wellness solutions, today announced the launch of The Clearlight® Plunge, a premium cold plunge designed to complete the pioneering brand’s ecosystem of modern wellness and recovery. Orders for the Clearlight Plunge open today, marking a major expansion of Clearlight’s long-standing vision: wellness is most effective and powerful when therapies are intentionally integrated, not experienced in isolation. With the addition of the Clearlight Plunge, Clearlight continues to make the luxury of self-care accessible to everyone through its best-in-class, complete suite of wellness technologies.

The Most Trusted Name in Saunas is Now Powering The Clearlight® Plunge

For nearly three decades, Clearlight has led the category by designing wellness technologies that work together. The company combines infrared heat, red light therapy, halotherapy, aromatherapy, and vibrational resonance therapy to maximize benefits within a single session. The introduction of the Clearlight Plunge brings cold therapy into this wellness and recovery ecosystem, enabling thoughtfully designed contrast protocols that further support recovery, resilience, performance, and other key benefits.

“When heat, cold, and light are designed to work together, the body responds more efficiently. The Clearlight Plunge completes this equation,” said Dr. Raleigh Duncan, Founder of Clearlight, who is widely recognized as one of the most significant contributors to technologies for healing the human body and as a leader in advancing the wellness industry. “We know you’re investing your time, which is one of the most valuable commodities we have, so by having complementary wellness modalities, we up the healing potential for your body.”

The Ultimate Contrast Therapy Companion

Unlike standalone ice baths, the Clearlight Plunge is designed and engineered to complement Clearlight’s infrared saunas and award-winning red light therapy systems, both aesthetically and physiologically. Built with a Stainless Steel basin and Canadian Cedar exterior, the Clearlight Plunge reflects the same top-quality craftsmanship, enduring durability, safety, warranty, efficacy, and premium aesthetic for which Clearlight is known.

The Clearlight® Plunge features a 36°F to 104°F temperature range, integrated ozone sanitation with dual filtration, and SmartLife app control (IOS & Android) for effortless operation. The insulated lid helps maintain thermal efficiency and water cleanliness. Crafted to fit through standard doors (29.5” wide), you can position this wellness solution in various indoor and outdoor spaces. The Clearlight Plunge is a seamless addition to your wellness space as it arrives fully assembled and ready to use. Simply fill it, plug it in, set the temperature, and plunge.

Its ergonomic design includes a natural seated position, eliminating buoyancy issues. Additionally, it can accommodate one or two people, with an optional removable seat available for purchase. The Clearlight Plunge depth allows for full-body immersion and comfort, supporting consistent and effective cold exposure. “Cold therapy should never feel like punishment; rather, like all wellness solutions, it should feel purposeful and a part of your overall health routine,” added Duncan.

The Science Behind Contrast Therapy

“When paired with Clearlight infrared sauna heat and red light therapy, cold exposure becomes part of a larger recovery protocol which is designed to support both physical performance and nervous system regulation,” Duncan noted.

Research shows that regular cold plunging has health benefits, including:

Better Sleep: Encourages parasympathetic nervous system activation which helps with deeper rest and recovery.
Immune System Support: May stimulate white blood cells and enhance immune function.
Improved Circulation: Enhances blood flow by causing vasoconstriction during immersion and vasodilation afterward.
Mental Clarity and Focus: Boosts norepinephrine and dopamine, sharpening alertness and improving mood.
Metabolic Boost: Activates brown fat, increasing calorie burn and improving metabolic efficiency.
Muscle Recovery: Reduces inflammation and soreness by constricting blood vessels and flushing out metabolic waste.
Pain Relief: Triggers endorphin release, acting as a natural analgesic.
Stress Reduction: Helps regulate cortisol levels, promoting relaxation and resilience against stress.

Decades of Craftsmanship Are Powering Your Plunge

The Clearlight Plunge is designed to provide an optimal cold therapy experience, combining advanced cooling and heating technology, an integrated cleaning component, convenience and comfort with a user-friendly design. Key features include:

Temperature Range: The Clearlight Plunge can be adjusted from 37.4°F to 107.6°F, offering both cold and warm therapy options. This allows for a versatile therapeutic experience tailored to individual needs.
Self-Cleaning System: The Clearlight Plunge is equipped with a double-cleaning system that includes an ozone generator and dual filtration (10” x 2.5” 20-micron pleated sediment + mesh filter). This ensures the water remains clean and safe with minimal manual maintenance.
Plug-and-Plunge Setup: The Clearlight Plunge arrives fully assembled and only requires filling with water and plugging into a standard 120V socket. No additional plumbing is required, making setup quick and easy.

Trusted by Athletes, Designed for Everyday Life: Recover Like a Pro™

Clearlight’s approach to recovery has long been trusted by professional athletes, coaches, teams and trainers who also understand the power of stacking wellness modalities. Among them is Los Angeles Dodgers’ catcher Will Smith, a three-time World Series champion, and Olympian and World Fencing League Founder Miles Chamley-Watson. Clearlight’s growing presence in the professional sports world reflects its broader mission: to make “recovering like a pro” accessible to everyone without requiring elite facilities or excessive time commitments. Currently, more than 150 professional athletes, teams and trainers choose Clearlight because they trust the brand’s high standards and quality, and know that using the integrated healing modalities leads to faster recovery and optimal performance.

Perspire Sauna Studio Launches Halotherapy Nationwide with Clearlight® Award-Winning HALO ONE®

Costa Mesa, CA. —March 8—Perspire Sauna Studio, the nation’s leading infrared sauna and red-light therapy franchise, announced the launch of Clearlight® HALO ONE® Halotherapy across its entire franchise system nationwide.

Halotherapy derived from the Greek word halos, meaning salt is the controlled inhalation of pure sodium chloride (NaCl) particles in a wellness setting. The modality is designed to mimic the microclimate of natural salt caves and has historically been explored as a complementary therapy for respiratory support.

At Perspire Sauna Studio, Halotherapy treatment is administered through Clearlight’s HALO ONE® technology, a compact halogenerator placed directly inside the studio’s infrared saunas. The device actively breaks pharmaceutical-grade salt into microscopic particles and disperses them into the air. Guests inhale the concentrated salt in the air while enjoying the benefits of an infrared sauna and red light therapy experience.

“Perspire has always focused on making science-backed wellness accessible and intentional,” said Lee Braun, Founder and CEO of Perspire Sauna Studio. “The addition of Halotherapy across our entire system deepens the value of each session by supporting respiratory wellness and further promoting relaxation.”

“We thoroughly enjoy working with Lee Braun, his entire team and the wonderful franchise owners at Perspire; and we share the same vision when it comes to healing people,” said Dr. Raleigh Duncan, Founder and CEO, Clearlight. “At Clearlight, layering wellness therapies, i.e., combining infrared heat, red light therapy, halotherapy (salt therapy), and other modalities, to maximize the health benefits in a single session is the real secret to elevating your daily health routine. Adding our HALO ONE ® to any Perspire sauna session makes a great deal of sense as it maximizes the therapeutic effects in the same amount of time as a standard infrared sauna session.”

What Is Halotherapy?
Halotherapy involves breathing in fine salt particles in a controlled environment. Emerging research has explored its use as a complementary wellness modality for adults with common colds, bronchitis, asthma, COPD, and other respiratory concerns. The latest studies suggest halotherapy may help improve breathing comfort and mucus clearance, contributing to enhanced respiratory function and overall well-being.

Halotherapy may be particularly appealing for individuals managing seasonal allergies, common colds, or respiratory congestion, as well as those seeking a complementary approach to their overall wellness routine.

Unlike traditional salt rooms or standalone salt caves, Perspire integrates Halotherapy directly into its infrared sauna environment. This pairing allows guests to experience:

Infrared heat, which gently raises core temperature and supports circulation
Red-light therapy, which promotes relaxation and cellular support
HALO ONE® salt dispersal, designed to support respiratory comfort

Each halotherapy session is delivered via a Halotherapy device within the sauna. When the HALO ONE® is activated, the sauna temperature is set around 140°F to ensure optimal experience conditions. Guests may notice sensations such as sinus drainage, or increased mucus clearance, which are expected physiological responses associated with salt inhalation.

While research continues to develop, leading health organizations categorize halotherapy as a complementary therapy and recommend consulting with healthcare providers before incorporating it into wellness routines.

“Our goal is to create a wellness destination where guests can build sustainable habits,” Braun added. “Halotherapy strengthens our commitment to offering modalities that support people to feel balanced, clear and restored.”

The systemwide rollout of Halotherapy marks another step in Perspire’s continued innovation strategy. With nearly 100 studios open nationwide and continued franchise development underway, the brand remains focused on elevating the in-studio experience while maintaining consistency across its franchise network.

Clearlight® is the global pioneer and industry leader in infrared sauna technology, red light therapy, and wellness solutions for nearly 30 years.

About Perspire Sauna Studio

Perspire Sauna Studio is the fastest-growing infrared sauna and red-light therapy franchise in the U.S. The science-based, technology-driven wellness company provides guests a modern-day experience to a centuries-old practice through elevated infrared (IR) sauna and red-light therapy (RLT) and contrast therapy through SNØ Showers. The brand was established in 2010 by Founder & CEO Lee Braun, to expand into major markets throughout the U.S. and further instill its vision of making the infrared sauna experience accessible to all. The company has awarded over 250 franchise licenses, with nearly 100 open studios around the U.S. To learn more about the brand’s services or franchising opportunities, visit www.perspiresaunastudio.com.

“We have more than 150 professional athletes and trainers who choose Clearlight because they trust our high standards and quality. Professional athletes have teams of trainers who know that stacking or layering healing modalities leads to faster recovery and optimal performance. Our endeavor is to make recovering like a pro accessible to everyone,” added Dickie Walsh, Clearlight COO, who oversaw the custom wellness offering.

Professional athletes rely on stacked and complementary recovery modalities to get to and remain at the top of their game. Clearlight’s doctor-designed infrared saunas have become key tools for players focused on:

Recovery: Allowing them to loosen up before games, repair and rebuild muscles, replenish energy stores, and reduce muscle fatigue and inflammation, which is essential after intense physical activity.
Injury Prevention: Increasing circulation and flexibility to remain on the field all season and healthy in the offseason.
Improved Performance: Supporting their general well-being, endurance, mobility, and good mental focus.

“Having access to Clearlight’s advanced wellness tools has been a helpful tool as the team prepares for Sunday’s game,” said Jim Whalen, Head Athletic Trainer for the New England Patriots. “We appreciate their best-in-class technologies to aid recovery and performance and are grateful for their support.”

Less Red Roses, More Red Light: Clearlight® Puts Glowmance at the CORE This Valentine’s Day

BERKELEY, CA — January 26, 2026 —Like most things these days, Valentine’s Day is ever-evolving, and so is the way we show love. In 2026, Clearlight®, the global pioneer and industry leader in infrared sauna technology, red light therapy, and wellness solutions for more than 28 years, invites couples, friends, and wellness-minded communities to skip sending flowers this year for something far more enduring: a wellness glow up. And, with February doing double duty as American Heart Health Month, Clearlight’s award-winning suite of Red Light Therapy Towers delivers modern glowmance, perfect for date nights and Galentine’s gatherings to bro bondings and pals-of-mine get-togethers.

Glow Together From the CORE

This Valentine’s Day, let’s focus on our cores, specifically, the Clearlight® CORE Red Light Therapy Tower. This doctor-designed, science-backed, FDA-registered, 38” wellness solution was created to support your body’s core, where circulation, heart health, recovery, and relaxation begin.

Engineered to integrate seamlessly into all Clearlight Infrared Saunas and also shine on its own, the CORE Tower targets the torso with science-backed red and near-infrared wavelengths shown to support circulation, cardiovascular health, muscle recovery, relaxation, and, of course, a post-session glow. Powered by Clearlight’s exclusive Variable Optics™ technology, the CORE offers a personalized, professional-grade experience, whether the experience is solo or shared.

The CORE Tower anchors Clearlight’s full suite of award-winning red light solutions, which includes the PERSONAL Tower and the FULL BODY Tower, designed so partners and people can scale their wellness routines. Together, this wellness trio offers a flexible ecosystem for use wherever you get your wellness: at-home, at the spa, in your apartment, at the gym or fitness center, and more!

Heart Health is the New Love Language

During February’s Heart Health Month, think about romance as something much deeper than candlelight. Think about the gift of self-love through a science-backed ritual that supports longevity, togetherness, and a glow that will endure well beyond February 14.

Red Light Therapy causes a phenomenon called photobiomodulation (PBM) using near infrared and specific wavelengths of red light that actually trigger the production of energy in the form of ATP in the mitochondria of our living cells. More simply put, photobiomodulation is a way of increasing the life span of the cells in our body, which, by its very definition, causes longevity and anti-aging to occur. Dr. Duncan, founder of Clearlight, explains photomodulation here: Red Light 101, and you can also read more here about Clearlight Red Light Therapy: The Science Behind The Light

From singles who mingle to couples who prioritize longevity and shared rituals, people who turn to their CORE can take their heart health to new levels this Valentine’s Day. Wellness-focused celebrity duos who use the Clearlight Red Light CORE Tower include: actors and wellness brand co-founders, Ian Somerhalder & Nikki Reed (Vampire Diaries, Twilight, The Absorption Company); real estate powerhouses Heather and Josh Altman (Bravo’s Million Dollar Listing), and dancers Hayley Erbert & Derek Hough (Dancing with the Stars).

Made to Last

Unlike trend-driven LED masks, Clearlight’s FDA-registered towers are engineered for full-body versatility, higher irradiance, and long-term safety, delivering professional-grade results without compromise.

Clearlight® Expands Wellness Support for Carmel Fire Department Following Carbon Monoxide Response

Global Infrared Sauna Leader Donates Wellness Package including Infrared Sauna and Two HALO ONE® Salt Therapy Devices after Local Spa’s Act of Gratitude

Carmel, IN — December 4, 2025 — What began as a routine emergency response has transformed into a sweeping show of support for first responders, thanks to a wellness donation from Clearlight®, the global pioneer and industry leader in infrared sauna technology, red light therapy, and wellness solutions for more than 28 years

Earlier this month, the Carmel Fire Department (CFD) responded to a carbon monoxide alarm at Carmel Salt Caves & Spa after staff inadvertently dislodged a pipe connected to a gas heater. Firefighters quickly secured the building and ensured everyone’s safety, which is a reminder of the essential role carbon monoxide detectors play in any home or business using gas appliances.

While on site, firefighters mentioned a long-standing wish: access to an infrared sauna to support muscle recovery, respiratory health, and stress reduction, all of which are benefits increasingly recognized as essential for first responders.

In response, Carmel Salt Caves & Spa immediately donated their Clearlight Infrared Sauna to the Department.

But the story didn’t end there.

When Clearlight learned of the incident and the spa’s donation, the company took swift action to expand the gift beyond anyone’s expectations.

Clearlight is donating a second Clearlight Infrared Sauna to the Carmel Fire Department along with two HALO ONE® Salt Therapy devices, creating a wellness suite to further support the Carmel fire fighters’ respiratory health, muscle recovery, stress relief, and resilience.

“When we learned what happened, we knew immediately that we wanted to be part of giving back,” said Dr. Raleigh Duncan, Founder of Clearlight. “These firefighters stepped in without any hesitation. Offering them more wellness tools is our way of saying thank you for all you do in the community. Their work is physically and mentally demanding, and we’re committed to supporting their long-term health in every meaningful way we can.”

The additional Clearlight Infrared sauna and HALO ONE devices will broaden CFD’s access to therapeutic tools shown to support:

Improved circulation and muscle recovery
Reduced physiological stress load
Respiratory health through dry salt aerosol therapy
Detoxification support, including removal of heavy metals and environmental toxins

Clearlight has long supported firefighter wellness through a number of initiatives for individual firefighters, crews, as well as conducting scientific research for their long term wellness. UCSF is currently using the Clearlight Curve® Far Infrared Sauna Dome to study detoxification of endocrine-disrupting chemicals, heavy metals, and mycotoxins. Clearlight also offers the Clearlight’s First Responder ID.ME program.

Carmel Salt Caves & Spa, known locally for supporting EMS professionals with free and discounted services, expressed deep gratitude for Clearlight’s amplified gift.

“We were honored to give our infrared sauna to the Carmel Fire Department,” said Dr. Skye Winslow, owner of Carmel Salt Caves & Spa. “Clearlight’s generosity has taken this gesture to a whole new level. Their donation will provide powerful, long-term benefits for the health and recovery of our first responders.”

As part of the announcement, Carmel Salt Caves & Spa encourages all residents to inspect their carbon monoxide detectors and ensure they are properly installed — a simple safety step that prevented a more serious incident.

As a Clearlight ambassador, Smith credits his Sanctuary 2 Full Spectrum Outdoor Infrared Sauna and Red Light Therapy CORE Tower with helping him maintain strength, speed his recovery, and keep his performance sharp through the entire 162-game grind.

“I use the sauna before I head to the stadium for the day. I think it helps warm my body up and get it ready for everything I do before the game,” said Will. “I broke my hand in early September. I think that the sauna along with a lot of other treatments have helped speed up the recovery process.”

Will, who also uses the CORE Tower, added, “Being consistent with my Clearlight CORE Tower has helped me perform at my best for the entire 162 game MLB season. My recovery day to day has been better, which has kept my strength and energy at a higher capacity than previous years. My performance has been the most consistent it’s ever been thanks to the Clearlight CORE Tower.”

As the offseason begins and athletes like Will move from celebration to recalibration, Clearlight continues to be the wellness teammate chosen by MLB players. Clearlight’s doctor-designed infrared saunas and award-winning, FDA-registered red light therapy towers have become key tools for players focused on:

Recover Like a Pro™: Allowing them to loosen up before games, repair and rebuild muscles, replenish energy stores, and reduce muscle fatigue and inflammation, which is essential after intense physical activity.
Injury Prevention: Increasing circulation and flexibility to remain on the field all season and healthy in the offseason.
Improved Performance: Supporting their general well-being, endurance, mobility, and good mental focus.

In addition to Smith, Clearlight’s growing MLB wellness roster includes: Ian Happ (Chicago Cubs), Manny Machado (San Diego Padres), Alex Verdugo (New York Yankees), and many more. From rookies on the rise to championship veterans, athletes, celebrities, teams, wellness experts, and influencers are using Clearlight’s Sanctuary Infrared Sauna Line and suite of award-winning Red Light Towers as their go-to recovery essentials.

In today’s game, champions aren’t just made by how they play, but how they recover. And self-care is a critical part of the game.

Infrared Sauna Research Advances: UCSF Clinical Trial Publishes Data Showing Feasibility and Promising Symptom Reduction in Depression Treatment

25 of 29 Participants No Longer Met Criteria for Depression after Combined Whole Body Heat Treatment Using The Clearlight® Curve® Far Infrared Sauna Dome and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Protocol

BERKELEY, CA—October 23, 2025 – In conjunction with October as National Depression Awareness Month, a new UCSF randomized trial underscores the potential of infrared heat therapy in depression treatment. The findings from the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) reveal that whole-body heating (WBH) combined with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) was well-received by patients with major depressive disorder (MDD), and 86.2% of patients no longer met criteria for MDD at their final assessment.

The study, led by Ashley E. Mason, PhD, a clinical psychologist at the UCSF Osher Center for Integrative Health and the UCSF Weill Institute for Neurosciences, tested an integrated mind-body treatment combining WBH, a type of whole-body heat treatment using infrared heating, and CBT as a treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD). The study, which builds on earlier trials led by Dr. Mason (2024 news here) and provides both infrared heat treatments and psychotherapy sessions for the treatment of MDD, was published on October 22, 2025, in Global Advances in Integrative Medicine and Health (https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/27536130251387714). The study used the The Clearlight Curve Far Infrared Sauna Dome, manufactured by Clearlight, the industry leader in infrared sauna and pioneer in innovative health and wellness solutions.

In brief, the trial enrolled 30 adults with MDD. Each patient received eight weekly sessions of cognitive behavior therapy conducted by Zoom (virtual), and biweekly whole-body heating sessions, conducted in a Curve Dome. Of 30 patients, 29 (96.7%) completed the trial, and more than 75% said they would recommend participation to a friend or family member with depression.

Dr. Mason began the clinical trial after being inspired by prior work showing that infrared heat treatment caused rapid reductions in depression. Preliminary results from prior studies and Dr. Mason’s most recent study suggests that infrared heat treatment may help significantly reduce depression symptoms.

“That 25 of 29 participants (86.2 %) saw meaningful reductions in depression symptoms, regardless of infrared heating level, tells us that we have more work to do, but sends a positive and hopeful message,” said Dr. Mason. “It reinforces that we have much to learn about how heat therapy and traditional psychotherapy might work together.”

While Dr. Mason’s future clinical trial testing efficacy will take several years, early results from her feasibility studies are showing that whole-body heating may reduce depression symptoms. In a previous trial with people with depression, Mason also found that the whole-body heating sessions acutely improved mood, and found that these improvements predicted overall response to the treatment. She found similar results in an earlier trial with people who did not have depression; even in this group, the data showed significant improvements in mood and nearly statistically significant improvements in depression symptoms.

Dr. Mason’s studies published in 2021, 2024, and 2025 that showed improvements in mood all used The Curve Infrared Sauna Dome, a compact, portable infrared sauna wellness device manufactured by Clearlight. The Curve allows for precise, consistent heat exposure in a controlled research environment which is a critical component for the research.

“This study on depression builds on Dr. Mason and her team’s incredible work and continues to validate what our customers have shared for decades. People have been telling us how using our infrared saunas has changed their lives by reducing stress and lifting their spirits. We’re honored to see our technology used in this kind of rigorous, meaningful research that may help reimagine how we approach mental health care,” said Dr. Raleigh Duncan, Clearlight Founder. Dr. Duncan is widely recognized for his expertise in infrared therapy as one of the most significant contributors to technologies for healing the human body and as a leader in advancing the industry for more than 28 years.

Go from “Ho, Ho Ho” to “Well, Well, Well” This Holiday Season! Clearlight Unveils 2025 Holiday Wellness Round-Up

In Collaboration with Top Wellness Brands: The Absorption Company, HigherDOSE & Hyperice

Curated Collection of Self-Care Must Haves & Instagram Giveaway (valued at over $6900)

BERKELEY, Calif. — October 15, 2025—This holiday season, you can skip the tinsel and turn up the TLC. Clearlight®, the industry leader in infrared saunas and a pioneer in innovative wellness solutions, invites wellness lovers everywhere to trade “Ho, Ho, Ho” for “Well, Well, Well.” Today, the brand announced its 2025 Holiday Wellness Gift Round-Up, a collection of trusted products from some of the top wellness brands, designed to restore, recharge, and reimagine holiday giving.

Joining Clearlight are: The Absorption Company, co-founded by Nikki Reed and Ian Somerhalder; HigherDOSE, and Hyperice.The round-up doubles as a ready-made gift list for media and a self-care guide for consumers who want to give and receive the gift of wellness.

For Clearlight founder, Dr. Raleigh Duncan, the tradition of giving has always been deeply personal. “Back when I was hacking wellness in my garage and out of my VW bus way before anyone even used the word ‘biohacking,’ I thought about what it really meant to give the gift of health,” Duncan recalls. “It was never a gadget or a fad. For me, it is always a chance to help someone to feel better, reset, and be present in the world with a lot more energy and joy.”

Duncan’s philosophy helped shape the round-up, which features leading innovations from trusted brands. With a mix of science-backed modalities, doctor-designed solutions and elevated design, the collection ensures that everyone from wellness beginners to long-time biohackers can give and get the gift of self-care.

“Now more than ever, I can see that people are prioritizing their well being,” added Duncan. “Through this holiday round-up we are hoping to simplify gift giving, spotlight some of our favorite wellness partners, and help people create a self-care sanctuary at home. When wellness is the gift, everyone wins.”

The 2025 Self-Care Sanctuary Holiday Round-Up

CLEARLIGHT SANCTUARY 2 + RED LIGHT THERAPY CORE TOWER
Clearlight’s Sanctuary 2 Full Spectrum 2 Person Infrared Sauna paired with the award-winning Red Light Therapy CORE Tower delivers year-round benefits that you can enjoy into and well beyond the holiday season. The two-person Sanctuary 2 surrounds you in advanced near-, mid-, and far-infrared wavelengths with Clearlight’s patented True Wave® heaters, and is popular with wellness experts, health enthusiasts, biohackers, athletes, teams, celebrities, entertainers and influencers. Prefer to start your self-care on a smaller level? The versatile CORE Tower stands strong on its own, delivering powerful red light therapy designed to target and recharge your body’s core systems. At 38″ tall, it can be used solo on a stand or seamlessly integrated into Clearlight sauna models including the Sanctuary 2, taking your wellness to a new level. Whether you choose the CORE Tower, the full Sanctuary 2 experience, or the combo, these wellness solutions help you step into the new year refreshed and ready for 2025.

“I use the sauna before I head to the stadium for the day. I think it helps warm my body up and get it ready for everything I do before the game,” said Will Smith, Catcher, Los Angeles Dodgers, 2x World Series Champion and 3x All-Star. “I broke my hand in early September. I think it the sauna along with a lot of other treatments have helped speed up the recovery process.”

Will, who also uses the CORE Tower, also shared, “Being consistent with my Clearlight CORE Tower has helped me perform at my best for the entire 162 game MLB season. My recovery day to day has been better, which has kept my strength and energy at a higher capacity than previous years. My performance has been the most consistent it’s ever been thanks to the Clearlight CORE Tower.”

RESTORE
Restore ($54/month for 28 servings) is a powerful and highly bioavailable hydration and recovery formula that replenishes electrolytes, fights oxidative stress, and supports natural detox. With Liposomal Glutathione, Vitamin C, CoQ10, and key B-vitamins, it helps boost energy, repair cells, support immunity, and optimize recovery and is perfect after workouts or sauna sessions.

“Restore is just on another level,” said Co-founder, Nikki Reed, The Absorption Company. “It’s not your average hydration powder. Yes, it has 700 mg of electrolytes, making it great for hydration, but it also includes Liposomal Glutathione for detox, and Vitamin C for your immune system, and B Vitamins for overall wellness, and Magnesium Glycinate for recovery, so I think of this as more of a multivitamin immune supplement with added hydration benefits, and this is what makes it different. It’s a multi-angled approach formulated in a way that your body can actually absorb and use and feel. I take it every morning.” Video here.

“As someone who views health and wellness holistically, I have incorporated supplements into my diet for most of my life. However, I always questioned how much of each supplement I was actually absorbing. Restore is different and I truly believe it’s because of the Capsoil technology and optimal bioavailability of the ingredients that allows for maximum absorption. I have added Restore to my daily routine for the past two months and I can feel and see a noticeable difference. Restore first thing in the morning (before coffee!) and, when needed, later in the day refreshes and renews. I cannot recommend it more highly!” Restore customer testimonial

Normatec Elite will enhance the experience 10-fold, especially with my schedule, as the product is a great solution for travel during the golf season.”

Clearlight® Infrared Saunas Expands by Bringing State-of-the-Art, Dr.-Designed Infrared Wellness Solutions to Japan

Industry Leader in Infrared Wellness Debuts Clearlight® Japan at HoloLife Summit (Tokyo), The Region’s Premier Biohacking Event

BERKELEY, CA. / TOKYO, Japan – October 7, 2025 – Clearlight®, the Industry leader in infrared sauna technology and wellness innovations, today announced its official expansion into Japan with the launch of Clearlight® Japan (https://www.healifejapan.com/). The move marks a milestone for the California-based, global brand recognized for pioneering safe, effective, doctor-designed, and science-backed infrared therapies and key wellness solutions for nearly three decades.

Today’s announcement comes just ahead of the HoloLife Summit (October 10–11, 2025, Shibuya, Tokyo), known as the Biohacker Summit, where Clearlight will introduce its wellness offerings to a community of wellness leaders and longevity enthusiasts.

“Japan has a special place in the history of infrared wellness,” said Dr. Raleigh Duncan, Founder of Clearlight and widely-recognized infrared sauna technology pioneer. “NASA began exploring infrared technology in the late 60’s in the space program. The first use of infrared that I saw for heating the body came from Japan, and then it migrated from there, eventually reaching the US. It’s deeply meaningful for us to bring Clearlight’s most advanced infrared saunas and wellness solutions back to where the infrared journey began and make them available here and for anyone seeking better health and longevity.”

Clearlight Japan is led by HEALIFE Co., Ltd., who oversee operations, distribution, customer care, and cultural integration for the region.

“We’re truly honored to bring Clearlight to Japan,” said Yuko Ichikawa, Managing Director, Clearlight Japan. “In Japan, we have always had a deep and long-standing appreciation for wellness practices that blend our tradition with science. From Clearlight’s compact saunas designed for our smaller living spaces like The Curve® Sauna Dome, to the award-winning red light therapy towers, we’ll offer a mix of wellness products to fit into the lifestyles of our customers here.”

Product Line-Up

Clearlight Japan will introduce a curated offering from the Clearlight catalog, including select infrared sauna models from the Sanctuary line, such as the Clearlight Sanctuary™ 1 Full Spectrum 1 Person Infrared Sauna and the Clearlight Sanctuary™ 2 Full Spectrum 2 Person Infrared Sauna and other models, designed to fit Japanese homes and apartments. Product line up is here.

Larger, customized sauna builds will also be available for clients seeking full residential or commercial installations.

This launch marks the beginning of a growing product line, with additional Clearlight models and wellness innovations to follow.

A Legacy of Wellness

Founded in Berkeley, California, by Dr. Raleigh Duncan, one of the earliest pioneers of infrared sauna technology and an original biohacker, Clearlight has spent nearly three decades pioneering the industry in wellness innovation. From eliminating harmful EMFs from sauna heaters years ahead of competitors, to developing the first carbon/ceramic infrared heaters capable of deeper therapeutic penetration, Clearlight is considered the leader in infrared therapy worldwide.

Clearlight saunas are beloved by global icons, including Gwyneth Paltrow (Academy award-winning actress, Goop founder), Jeremy Renner (Marvel’s Avengers and Mission: Impossible), and Will Smith (Los Angeles Dodgers, Catcher, 2x World Series Champion and 3x All-Star), among many others… underscoring the brand’s cultural impact and reputation for results-driven wellness.

Meet The Clearlight Team at HoloLife

Clearlight will showcase its technologies at the HoloLife Summit in Tokyo (Dragon Gate, Shibuya, October 10–11), a premier global gathering focused on “The Zen of Longevity.” The event promises immersive experiences in biohacking, human optimization, quantum tech, and longevity, and offers the perfect stage to unveil Clearlight’s expansion into Japan.

“Clearlight has always been about more than saunas. It’s about wellness transformation,” added Duncan. “With Clearlight Japan, we are planting roots in a culture that values both tradition and innovation, and together we’ll help people live longer, healthier lives.”
