Wellness Benefits of Infrared Heating at The Holistic Warehouse, Tradeston

Background

With three fitness and wellness studios across Glasgow, The Holistic Warehouse was looking for a heating solution that could support its popular hot Pilates, yoga and sculpt classes while delivering a comfortable and consistent experience for clients.

Having previously used alternative heating systems and experiencing various issues, the team decided to replace them with Herschel Infrared heaters. Following the success of the initial installation, Herschel heaters were used across all three studios.

The infrared heaters form an integral part of the studio’s offering, creating a warm, welcoming environment that clients love and regularly return to for sessions.

Hear from Brian at The Holistic Warehouse about their experience with using Herschel heaters in their studios.

Solution

Herschel’s British-made Power heaters were installed throughout all three studio locations and are regularly used for infrared pilates, hot yoga and heated sculpt classes. The Herschel Power heaters are available in 3 sizes ranging from 3.2kW to 6.4kW, and come in a black or silver finish. The Holistic Warehouse decided to go with the sleek black finish to fit the aesthetic of their studios.

The studio benefits from simple and effective control, with heaters programmed remotely to switch on before classes and off afterwards. The system provides reliable, consistent warmth and can typically bring the studio spaces up to temperatures of 45°C within around an hour.

Since introducing infrared heating, the studio has seen strong demand for its heated classes. Hot pilates and hot yoga sessions regularly become fully booked, with clients frequently returning for the experience and recommending the classes to others.

The studio reports that the heated environment has become a key differentiator, helping to enhance both the workout experience and overall client satisfaction.

Health Benefits of Infrared

Infrared heating offers a unique form of warmth that directly heats people and surfaces rather than warming the surrounding air.

For fitness and wellness environments, this can help create a more comfortable and immersive heated workout experience. Exercising in a warm infrared environment can encourage increased perspiration and elevate heart rate during training, supporting a more intensive workout.

Combined with the comfort and consistency of radiant heat, infrared heating creates an environment that supports both performance and wellbeing. Read more about the benefits of infrared in wellness spaces here.

Testimonial

"The clients absolutely love them"

The clients absolutely love them. We tend to always get good reviews in regards to the hot element of it. You find the clients constantly come back and they almost get addicted to the hot classes. I think it just adds that extra edge on top of the standard classes that we used to offer in our studios.
