Infrared Saunas

An infrared sauna works by using infrared heaters to emit infrared radiation, which produces radiant heat that penetrates the skin and warms the body directly from the inside out. Unlike traditional saunas that heat the surrounding air, infrared saunas use infrared rays to directly heat the body, penetrating about 2-3 centimetres into the skin and affecting the body at a cellular level. This method of heating leads to increased sweating, improved blood flow, and various therapeutic benefits, such as muscle relaxation, pain relief, and detoxification, similar to the effects of moderate exercise. Infrared saunas also offer adjustable temperature settings for a personalised experience and are generally more energy-efficient than traditional saunas, making them a convenient and effective option for sauna therapy.

Yes! Infrared saunas provide many health benefits, including improved circulation, muscle recovery, stress relief, detoxification, and even weight loss. The radiant infrared heat penetrates deeply into the skin, offering muscle relaxation and pain relief, and promoting better blood flow and overall wellness.

No, infrared saunas are not ideally suited for outdoor use. They are designed for indoor use in a controlled environment, as infrared saunas need to be placed in a space with stable conditions to ensure optimal performance and safety. For outdoor use, we recommend exploring our range of outdoor saunas specifically designed to withstand the elements.

The key difference between infrared saunas and traditional saunas lies in how they generate heat. Infrared saunas use infrared light to directly warm your body, penetrating deeper into the skin, which allows for a more comfortable experience at lower temperatures (48-60°C). In contrast, traditional saunas (including steam rooms) heat the air to high temperatures (70-100°C), providing intense heat and humidity. Traditional saunas use moist heat, offering respiratory benefits but not the deep tissue heating provided by infrared saunas. While both provide relaxation and detoxification, infrared saunas offer a gentler, more direct heat experience that may be better for muscle recovery and pain relief.

Infrared saunas are generally more energy-efficient than traditional saunas. They operate at lower temperatures (48-60°C) and require less power to reach and maintain those temperatures. On average, a small to medium-sized infrared sauna (1-2 person) consumes about 1.6 to 2 kW per hour, which makes them a cost-effective option for regular use. The power usage will depend on the size of the sauna and the duration of your sessions, but overall, infrared saunas are designed to be an energy-efficient choice for those seeking consistent wellness benefits without high electricity costs.

Infrared saunas provide a host of health benefits that go beyond traditional steam saunas. The radiant heat emitted by infrared heaters penetrates deep into your body, promoting improved blood circulation, detoxification, weight loss, metabolism and muscle recovery. Studies have shown that regular use of infrared saunas can also reduce stress, release harmful toxins, lower blood pressure, relieve joint and muscle pain, and even improve cardiovascular health. Step into an infrared sauna and let its therapeutic heat release endorphins, relax your muscles, and leave you with a sense of total well-being.

Whether you're looking for the potential health benefits or just want a soothing environment for relaxation, an infrared sauna is the ideal addition to your wellness journey. Regular sauna use has many benefits for overall health including lowering stress, inducing sweat to clear out toxin build up and increasing blood circulation, as well as helping with muscle aches, joint pain and metabolic rate to help you burn calories.

Choosing between an infrared sauna and a steam sauna depends on your personal preferences and health goals. Infrared saunas use radiant heat to directly warm your body at lower temperatures (48-60°C) with low humidity, offering benefits such as enhanced detoxification, improved circulation, and muscle soreness relief, making them more tolerable for longer sessions. In contrast, steam saunas use moist heat with near 100% humidity at higher temperatures (40-50°C) to heat the surrounding air, providing respiratory benefits, improved skin health, and a hydrating, intense heat experience. The main difference is in the heating method - if you prefer a dry heat with deeper tissue penetration, an infrared sauna may be better, while a steam sauna is ideal for those who enjoy high humidity and the associated skin and respiratory benefits.

A far infrared sauna is a type of sauna that uses far infrared light to generate heat, which penetrates the skin more deeply than other forms of infrared light, reaching deeper tissue layers. This allows for effective body heating at lower temperatures, typically around 48-60°C, making it more comfortable for longer sessions compared to traditional saunas.

Infrared saunas are generally safe for most people when used properly, offering benefits like improved circulation, detoxification, pain relief, and relaxation. To ensure safety during a sauna session, it's important to stay well-hydrated before and after use to prevent dehydration from sweating. Limit sessions to 15-30 minutes, especially for beginners, to avoid overheating, and start with lower temperatures, gradually increasing as your body adapts.

Infrared saunas are relatively energy-efficient compared to a traditional sauna. They typically use infrared heaters that require less power to reach and maintain operating temperatures, usually between 48-60°C, as opposed to the higher temperatures needed for traditional saunas. The electricity consumption of an infrared sauna depends on its size and the duration of use, but on average, a small to medium-sized infrared sauna (1-2 person) might use around 1.6 to 2 kW per hour. This translates to a cost-effective option for regular use, making the infrared heat in saunas an energy-efficient choice for home wellness routines.

To choose the right infrared sauna, consider the size and capacity based on your available space and the number of users, with options ranging from single-person units to larger models for multiple people. Opt for high-quality infrared heaters, such as carbon fiber or ceramic, with carbon fiber heaters offering even heat distribution and effective penetration. Ensure the sauna is made from high-quality, non-toxic materials like red cedar for durability and safety. Additionally, check for adjustable temperature settings, energy efficiency, and any extra features like chromotherapy (colour therapy) or sound systems to enhance your sauna experience.
