Infrared saunas use infrared light to heat your body directly rather than heating the air. They operate at lower temperatures than traditional saunas while providing deep tissue warming and increased circulation.
Stay hydrated — drink water before, during, and after your session. Start with shorter sessions (15-20 minutes) and work up to 30-45 minutes. Avoid infrared sauna immediately after intense exercise.
