Unlike traditional saunas, which heat the air around you, infrared saunas use radiant light to gently warm the body from within. This deep, penetrating heat stimulates circulation, promotes detoxification, and encourages relaxation, often at a more comfortable temperature.

When used within recommended guidelines, infrared saunas are generally safe for most individuals. Hydration is essential. Clients with underlying conditions should consult their provider for personal recommendations.

Minimal, breathable clothing or a towel is ideal for optimal infrared absorption.

Sessions typically last 30–45 minutes. Beginners may start shorter and build gradually.

You may sweat just as much—if not more—despite the lower temperatures. The deep tissue heat promotes a more intense internal response, which can lead to a profuse, detoxifying sweat.

While not a standalone solution, infrared sauna therapy can complement weight management efforts by gently increasing heart rate and circulation, mimicking light cardiovascular activity.

For general wellness, 2–3 sessions per week is common, though daily use is possible for some. Your provider will tailor a plan to your goals.

Arrive well-hydrated, avoid heavy meals beforehand, and wear easy-to-change clothing.

Hydrate generously, cool down gradually, and shower to remove any toxins released through sweat. Clients often report feeling refreshed, calm, and clear for hours afterward.

Yes, infrared sauna therapy can be an excellent pre-treatment to enhance circulation before facials, body sculpting, or detox therapies.
