Frequently asked questions about saunas
Why is an infrared sauna good?
The infrared sauna, unlike traditional saunas, is increasingly popular because it is made of Nordic spruce wood with fragrant resins that have a relaxing atmosphere, and instead of steam, the heating is made possible by long infrared rays. The heat of the infrared energy penetrates up to 5 cm deep into the tissue.
What is the temperature and length of stay in the infrared sauna?
The temperature ranges from 60 to 230°C, making it suitable for those who cannot tolerate the high temperatures of a traditional sauna. The stay typically lasts up to 30 minutes.
Tips before using an infrared sauna?
-
Alcohol consumption is not allowed, nor should you enter on an empty or full stomach due to potential strain on circulation.
-
It’s recommended to warm up with stretching exercises beforehand.
-

It’s best to sit opposite the heater, as heat radiation emits horizontally from the heat source.
