What is Infrared?

There’s nothing quite like a session in a sauna. You feel more relaxed and rested after you’re done, and the heat helps relieve sore muscles and improves your overall health and well-being. Infrared saunas have become quintessential in spas, gyms and other wellness settings around the world.

These saunas use infrared panels instead of conventional heat to easily penetrate human tissue, heating up your body before heating up the air.

In an infrared sauna, about 20% of the heat goes to heating the air and the other 80% heats your body. This radiant heat penetrates the skin more deeply than traditional saunas.

How to use an Infrared sauna

• Make sure to be hydrated before going into an Infrared sauna.  One can also bring water into the sauna, especially if they are sensitive to higher heat.

• Length of time. The suggested time is 20 to 30 minutes depending on the temperature.

• Clothing. How one dresses is a personal choice. Some people will wear bathing suits, while others prefer to go in naked.

• What you can do while in the sauna? Relax, read, meditate, listen to music, or visit with friends.

• After the session is over it is suggested that you take your time and let your body cool down. Once cooled down, feel free to take a shower or bath. Just make sure you are drinking plenty of water.

• Number of sessions per week. Most facilities that offer infrared sauna treatments recommend using the sauna three to four days per week. If you are healthy and tolerate the four days, you can use the sauna daily.
