Post-Workout Recovery for Golfers: The Power of Infrared Sauna & Float Therapy

Unlock Faster Recovery and Better Performance at Divine Med Spa, Exton

Whether you’re playing 9 holes or competing in a full tournament, golf demands more from your body than most people realize. From powerful swings to long hours on your feet, even the most seasoned golfers can experience muscle fatigue, joint stiffness, and soreness—especially after a challenging round. That’s where the right recovery routine comes into play.

At Divine Med Spa in Exton, we specialize in restorative wellness therapies designed to help athletes—including golfers—recover faster, feel better, and perform at their peak. Two standout services in our recovery toolkit? Infrared Sauna Therapy and Epsom Salt Float Therapy.


⛳ Muscle Recovery for Golfers: Why It Matters

Golf may appear low-impact, but the repeated twisting, walking, and carrying of equipment can lead to:

  • Microtears in muscle fibers

  • Tension in the lower back, shoulders, and hips

  • Delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS)

  • Reduced flexibility and mobility over time

If not addressed, these issues can compound—impacting both your swing mechanics and your long-term performance. That’s why proactive recovery isn’t just a luxury—it’s essential.


🔥 Infrared Sauna Therapy: Detox, Decompress, and Recover

Unlike traditional saunas, infrared saunas use infrared light to heat your body from within—promoting deep muscle relaxation and detoxification without the high humidity.

Benefits for Golfers:

  • Improved circulation to deliver nutrients and oxygen to tired muscles

  • Reduction in muscle stiffness and joint pain

  • Detoxification through deep sweating—helping flush lactic acid buildup

  • Enhanced flexibility to support a smoother swing

Just 30–40 minutes in our full-spectrum infrared sauna can leave your body looser, lighter, and ready for your next round.


🌊 Float Therapy: Total-Body Relief with Epsom Salt

Float therapy, or sensory deprivation, involves lying in a warm tank of water saturated with Epsom salt (magnesium sulfate). Your body effortlessly floats, allowing for deep physical and mental relaxation.

Benefits for Golfers:

  • Reduces inflammation and muscle soreness

  • Speeds up recovery time after intense play or training

  • Relieves lower back, shoulder, and hip tension

  • Replenishes magnesium levels, essential for muscle repair

  • Clears the mind—a great bonus for golfers looking to sharpen focus

Float therapy is particularly beneficial after a lesson, tournament, or practice session—giving your muscles a chance to recover without any pressure or strain.


🏌️‍♂️ Combine Both for the Ultimate Recovery Ritual

Pairing infrared sauna with float therapy creates a synergistic effect:

  1. Start with the sauna to increase circulation and loosen tight muscles.

  2. Follow with float therapy to soothe and rehydrate tissues, relieve tension, and promote deep recovery.

You’ll walk out feeling lighter, looser, and mentally refreshed—exactly what your body needs to bounce back between rounds.
