Infrared Heated Yoga Center
DETOXIFY, STIMULATE THE IMMUNE SYSTEM, AND BURN FAT
There is a DIFFERENCE between a hot yoga studio and an Infrared Heated Studio. Traditional heaters heat the body from the outside, great for sweating and fat burning…
BUT… Infrared heats the body from the INSIDE so sweating and fat burning are only part of the benefits! Infrared causes dilation of the small blood vessels deep inside the organs, increasing circulation in the deep tissues which don’t easily get fresh blood. When deep organ tissues are flushed with new oxygenated blood, deeper healing takes place. Toxic substances like heavy metals, environmental toxins and chemicals are stored in these deep tissues. The infrared heat combined with the twisting and stretching of the yoga poses allow the toxins to be released, they travel into the blood stream and are carried out of the body through the skin with the sweat or released into the gut to move out through the bowels. The infrared heat also stimulates the immune system. The penetrating heat creates an “artificial fever” and the body’s natural response is to increase white blood cells. White blood cells then work to kill viruses, bacteria and other harmful microbes. So grab a towel and a mat and join us for the deepest healing and regenerating experience only available under infrared heaters.

Meet our Instructors
Celine Boochever
I dabbled in different styles of yoga throughout my late teens and early twenties, but didn’t become a consistent practitioner until I discovered heated classes. Something about the added intensity of that sweat-inducing heat had me hooked. Not only were the benefits I reaped on a physical level astounding, but the mental peace I found within those 60-90 minutes of total presence- just me moving with my breath- was such a welcome change for my overactive mind.
I decided I needed to share my love of yoga and all it’s benefits with others so in February of 2016 I completed my 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training in Portland, Oregon and proceeded to teach full time for the next four years. During those years I taught classes ranging from Yoga Fundamentals for beginner clients to intermediate/advanced level Hot Power Vinyasa and Hot Power Sculpt classes.
I moved to Carefree, Arizona in the summer of 2020 and was beyond thrilled to find North Valley Medical Center offering heated yoga classes just a few minutes drive from my apartment. This beautiful little studio within Dr. Alexis and Dr. Jason McNeil’s naturopathic doctor’s office was the perfect fit for my personal yoga practice and I am beyond honored to now be a part of their yoga instructor roster.
I hope you’ll join me for one of my light-hearted, unique, and intelligently sequenced hot power vinyasa classes soon!
ALEXIS DURAN
My name is Alexis Duran, or “Lex” for short. I am an Arizona native that was born to explore this beautiful desert state, I love it here! (Especially those triple digits!) I attended my first yoga class when I was 12 years young. As I grew older and became more committed to my practice I decided to sign up in 2016 for a 200hr yoga teacher training through The Madison Improvement Club. Since then I have taught various styles including: vinyasa, yin, hot flow, kids, chair yoga for a local retirement home, and for athletes at CrossFit gyms throughout the valley. I love the physical strength and flexibility that yoga brings, but the mental and spiritual tools I have gained from this practice is what has saved my life, brought me peace, and keeps me showing up. I also love to hike, go camping, hang by the lake, spend time with my best gal pals, my husband, Tyler, and kids, Braxton, 9 & Roka, 3.
