Question 1

What is an infrared sauna and how does it work?

Accepted Answer

An infrared sauna is a type of sauna that uses infrared heat to detoxify your body, promote healing, boost your mood and more. Unlike traditional steam and dry heat saunas which work at very high heats, infrared heat lamps are effective at lower temperatures, which makes the sauna experience more comfortable. The lamps use electromagnetic radiation (which is different to risk-posing UV radiation) to heat your body.

Question 2

What should I expect during an infrared sauna session?

Accepted Answer

Similar to other sauna experiences, you’ll want to go in make-up free and wearing as little as possible. You’ll sit or lie down on a bench or on a mat on the floor and within about 15 minutes, you’ll start to sweat. The warmth should help relax your muscles and boost your circulation. Your session is likely to last between 30-60 minutes.

Question 3

Are there any risks associated with an infrared sauna?

Accepted Answer
