Finding Light in the Storm: How SaunaSpace Helped Me Heal from an MS Relapse

This past year tested me in ways I hadn’t expected. An MS relapse crashed into my life like a wave I couldn’t outrun—exhaustion settled into my bones, stiffness locked my muscles, and a fog clouded my mind. As someone who’s lived with MS for years, I’ve learned to navigate its ebbs and flows, but this time felt different—darker, heavier. Yet, through it all, there’s been a steady, glowing anchor pulling me back to myself: SaunaSpace.

For over four years, SaunaSpace has been my quiet refuge, but this year, it became my healer. We’ve nestled the Firelight Sauna in our bedroom, and stepping inside feels like crossing a threshold into peace. The near-infrared heat pours over me like a golden tide, warm and alive, melting the knots that MS tied into my body. It’s as if the stiffness dissolves into the air, leaving me weightless—reborn in small, tender moments. My skin drinks it in too, shedding that weary, washed-out look for a radiance that feels like a whisper of resilience.

Then there’s the Glow Infrared Light—my faithful companion beyond the bedroom. I take it with me when I travel, a portable piece of calm, or set it by my desk when brain fog threatens to derail my day. It's soft, penetrating warmth steadies my nerves, like a hand on my shoulder saying, “You’ve got this.” Together, these tools have woven a thread of recovery through this year’s storm, helping me reclaim pieces of myself I thought I’d lost.

The Benefits That Carried Me Through

What makes infrared light so special? For me, it’s been a lifeline—one grounded in science and felt in my soul. That deep, gentle heat stirs circulation, easing the muscle spasms and fatigue that flared with my relapse. It quiets inflammation like a soothing balm, nudging my cells to repair and sparking flickers of energy I’d forgotten. The sweat it draws out feels like a release—toxins and tension slipping away, lightening the load I’d carried. And for my skin, it’s pure alchemy—boosting collagen, smoothing lines, and leaving me with a glow that mirrors the healing inside. These aren’t just benefits; they’re quiet miracles that held me up when I needed it most.

A Haven in Our Space

Our SaunaSpace sits in our bedroom like an elegant sentinel—sleek, seamless, and radiating peace. It’s more than a tool; it’s a sanctuary, transforming our space into a retreat where I can breathe, heal, and just be. The Glow, with its portability, extends that comfort wherever I go—whether I’m on the road or at my desk, it’s a reminder that wellness can follow me. Together, they’ve turned this year of struggle into one of rediscovery.

I share this not just because it’s my story, but because it’s a possibility for anyone. You don’t need MS to feel the countless ways infrared light lifts your health—it’s a gift to yourself now and your future self. For me, it’s been a light in the dark, a way to soften the edges of a hard year, and a promise that healing is always within reach.
