Abstract
A personal sauna unit with an integrated chromotherapy unit. The sauna unit is configured for use by a single person lying generally prone on a surface. The sauna unit includes a cabin that is disposed to overlie the user and that includes a plurality of infrared heating elements that direct infrared energy toward the user's body. When using the sauna unit, the user's head extends from an open end of the cabin. A chromotherapy light unit is integrated with the cabin to extend along the perimeter of the open end of the cabin and to direct a selected spectrum of visible light toward the user's face for therapy. A pad with additional heating elements may be provided beneath the cabin to provide additional heating and comfort to the user. A control unit is provided to control the heating elements and the light element during a sauna session.
