Chromotherapy
Immerse yourself in a kaleidoscope of healing colors with chromotherapy (or color therapy), turning your sauna session into a vibrant dance of hues that not illuminate the room, and lighten your mood.
Chromotherapy uses the healing power of colors, with each color radiating its unique vibrational energy to influence mood and health.
You can add chromotherapy to your PEMF mat sessions quite easily and free of charge by using mobile apps. Remember to dim your ambient light.

Red Light Therapy
Combine the restorative power of your PEMF mat with red light therapy to give your skin the VIP treatment it deserves.
This pairing offers a dual approach to well-being, particularly in facial care. As your body absorbs the cellular benefits of PEMF, a red light therapy facial mask can simultaneously target your face, promoting focused rejuvenation and glow.
AROMATHERAPY
Let aromatherapy turn your PEMF mat session into an aromatic journey, with each scent adding its own healing power. This combo provides relaxation and mood enhancement.
Create a fragrant and serene atmosphere by placing soy candles or essential oil diffusers in the room. Don't forget that there are matching scents available for almost all self-care goals.

SOUND THERAPY
Tune in to sound therapy during your session, where the only thing more soothing than the heat is the symphony of sounds, taking away your stress one note at a time.
This can be done in various ways. There is a lot of material available online, often for free. Such as guided meditations, music tuned to healing frequencies. You can also use sound therapy with a white noise machine: it has a variety of soothing natural sounds.
HIMALAYAN SALT THERAPY
Himalayan salt therapy is believed to come with specific health benefits, besides purifying the air, such as ameliorate respiratory function and boosting skin health.
Add a Himalayan salt lamp to your room and enjoy during you PEMF relaxation session the soft glow, creating an atmosphere as salty and serene as a wonderful beach holiday.
Other than using these innovative therapies, there is so much more you can do during your PEMF mat session, adding not only to the physical benefits, but also to personal interests and mental well-being. We share some of our ideas:
Breathing Exercises and Mindfulness
Inhale relaxation, exhale tension with breathing exercises and mindfulness, turning each breath into a mini-vacation for your mind, because sometimes the best getaway is just a deep breath away.
Deep, controlled breathing promotes relaxation, and oxygen circulation too, complementing the detoxification process initiated by infrared heat. [1]
Mindfulness exercises, such as focusing on your breathing or participating in a guided meditation, can transform your PEMF session into a sanctuary of mental clarity and calm. [2]
Facial Care with Face Masks
Get a spa experience by treating your face with facial masks during your PEMF sessions.
Whether you choose hydrating, purifying, or anti-aging masks, applying them during your session can lead to a deeper beneficial impact on skincare.
The active ingredients in facial masks can help improve skin elasticity, hydration and overall tone, leaving your skin feeling rejuvenated and radiant.
Engaging in Literature and Audiobooks
Escape the real world by entering the world of fiction and non-fiction without the need for screen time. Whether you dive into the latest novel from your favorite author or listen to an audiobook or podcast, this activity during your PEMF session combines the best of both worlds.
Watching Favorite TV Series or Movies
By watching your favorite TV shows or movies, you can turn your PEMF mat experience into a fun, personal movie theater session. With your hands free and your body enveloped in comforting warmth, catching up on your favorite shows or enjoying a new movie can be exceptionally relaxing.
Guided Visualization and Positive Affirmations
Pairing your PEMF mat sessions with guided visualizations or calming video content can elevate the mental wellness benefits of your routine. Add positive affirmations into the mix, and you’re not just relaxing—you’re reinforcing self-esteem and cultivating a more empowered, positive mindset. [3]
nidra yoga
Nidra yoga is ideal to practice while lying on your PEMF mat because, first of all, it is quite simple. You don't have to be an experienced yogi because it is a guided meditation. Moreover, it is almost the same as Savasana (corpse pose) but more extensive. This form of yoga brings you deep relaxation and withdraws the senses and releases body tension. This eases your posture in the sauna blanket.
Nidra yoga is known to aid in physical healing and help you fall asleep.The duration of a yoga session is approximately the same as your sauna blanket session. Online (YouTube, Spotify) you can find endless Nidra yoga guidance for free. Find the voice that suits you best to guide you into this inner journey.
Find a quiet spot, ‘do not disturb’ sign on the door. Snuggle into your blanket and rest your arms along your body, with the palms facing the sky. Close your eyes and follow the voice.
Note: Stay awake while practicing yoga nidra. It helps to say to yourself, 'I won't sleep. I will stay awake.' Repeat this regularly.
While yoga nidra is perfect for stillness and deep restoration, your PEMF mat also gives you the freedom to move. If you're in the mood for gentle stretching or a more active flow, the mat offers enough space and support for a wide range of yoga styles—from restorative yin to energizing vinyasa.
By adding one or more complementary therapies to your PEMF mat session, you create a multi-sensory heat therapy.
Try a mix of the suggested therapies and find the combinations that best suit your personal preference. Maybe it's the mix of guided visualizations with positive affirmations that puts you at the center, or the simple pleasure of losing yourself in a good book under the soft glow of a Himalayan salt lamp. The possibilities are endless and the power to customize your experience is in your hands.
