Choosing Between Saunas

If you’re wondering what the difference between FAR infrared saunas and traditional steam saunas is, look no further! One of the main differences is how heat is generated. While FAR infrared saunas generate heat as light waves, traditional steam saunas generate convectional heat by using electricity to heat rocks.

Another key difference is the time it takes for the sauna to heat up - FAR infrared saunas take about 10-15 minutes to heat up, while traditional Steam saunas take about an hour. Additionally, FAR infrared saunas run about 30° cooler than traditional saunas, but you may sweat more than you would in a traditional steam sauna as your body absorbs the light waves.

It’s for you, it’s for everybody - Regardless of how a sauna is heated, the humidity level, whether you are young or young at heart- the effects on the body are similar. It is a positive experience for everybody and anybody.

Reap the benefits of exercise, without the exercise- When you sit in a sauna, your heart rate increases, and blood vessels widen. This increases your circulation,  similar to low to moderate exercise depending on the duration of sauna use.
