The right infrared sauna for you
Custom infrared sauna
Custom InfraSauna
What is infrared?
Unlike traditional sauna heat that fills a room, infrared heat works via wavelengths to directly penetrate the body. So while the sauna room is cooler (~110°), your body temperature rises and you begin to sweat.
In an infrared sauna there are few key notions to be aware of in order to maximize your bathing benefits:
- Proximity to the infrared heating panels (often called emitters) matters. The closer you are, the better.
- It's essential for the emitters to be 'on' for you to benefit from the infrared energy; so your goal shouldn't be to reach a set temperature (that's when the emitters will turn off). Rather, sit in your infrared sauna while the room temperature gradually rises and soak in the infrared energy.
