Infrared saunas help with a wide range of different concerns. They're great for promoting relaxation, stress-relief, increased blood circulation and muscular pain relief.

The best time to use an infrared sauna is first thing in the morning or right before you go to bed. However, this is just based on the time of the day and what an infrared sauna promotes, so any time fo the day is a good time to enjoy what an infrared sauna has to offer.

Once you have left the infrared sauna, make sure you allow your body to cool down before doing anything else. It's important to replace any lost fluids, so keeping up the healthy liquids is a must (even though wine is made from grapes, it doesn't cut it). Once your body temp has dropped, a cool shower and rest are recommended.

The main difference is the technology behind creating a warm environment for the user. For instance, a traditional sauna heats up the air, whereas an infrared sauna warms up the user. You can expect a more intense sweat sesh from a lower temp from the infrared sauna.

Infrared saunas don't pose a threat to health if used regularly, phew! So, if you're like us and want to get sweaty almost every day, you totally can. Best results and benefits can generally be experienced if utilised two to three times a week.

Infrared sauna treatments cost $170 on average.
