Urban Sweat Lodge Founded in Sarasota Opens Second Location

February 17, 2023 – Sarasota

Samantha Albano opened Purify, an Urban Sweat Lodge on South Pineapple Avenue in Sarasota, FL, in August 2018. She’s now taking it nationally as she and her new business partner, Richard Karp, have sold Purify to their first licensee. 

Samantha Albano is the founder of Purify, An Urban Sweat Lodge. As a division 2 volleyball athlete at Merrimack College, she was driven to find a solution to the aches and pains she experienced after each volleyball match and practice. She was studying business and pursuing entrepreneurship and was very passionate about health, wellness, and holistic healing. She knew creating a company with Far-Infrared would benefit her personally and saw a niche in Sarasota with its progressive health and high-demand beauty marketplace. She opened Purify in 2018 to promote healthy living and healing through the unique benefits of Far-Infrared. 

“I never saw this happening in my wildest dreams when I opened the doors to Purify, An Urban Sweat Lodge in 2018. This growth is exhilarating, and I can’t say it doesn’t come without blood, sweat, and tears. Nonetheless, the day is finally here, and Little Falls, New Jersey, is hosting their grand opening! I am thrilled to have Nick and Nicole as our first Purify licensees. They are so sweet, kind, hard-working, and passionate. Little Falls is lucky to have them, and I look forward to watching them spread the Far-Infrared love and light near and far in their New Jersey community!” said Samantha.

Nicole Lobosco and fiancée Nick originally experienced their first Purify session in Sarasota back in March of 2021. They opened the Little Falls, NJ, location on January 21, 2023. A grand opening is planned for Saturday, February 11, 2023, at noon at 169 Newark Pompton Turnpike, Little Falls, NJ.

After visiting Purify in Sarasota, FL, Nicole, and Nick knew they had to bring the concept of far infrared detoxing up north. With just one Purify visit, Nick felt relief in his back, something that didn’t come naturally to him due to an earlier tragic accident. Nicole had been battling thyroid disease. Besides her weight fluctuation, she always felt tired and bloated and experienced headaches daily until a Purify session. Now making detoxification a part of their weekly routine, the benefits they both receive from sweating with far infrared heat cannot compare to any other forms of relief. As it was a simple decision, Nicole and Nick decided to open a Purify model of their own in Little Falls. Now the entire community can feel, see, and experience all the benefits of far infrared at the new Purify.
