How to Use

Recommended Far Infrared Sauna Usage

• Before starting any new health regimen, please consult with your doctor.
• Be sure to drink plenty of water, before, during and after your sauna session (we recommend room temperature water during your session as cold water will cool the body decreasing perspiration)
• It is recommended that you maintain a vitamin/mineral supplement regimen
• Start small and gradually increase as your body adjusts. Begin your sessions at 20 min. per day with the temperature around 120 degrees. Increase your time and temperature as your body adjusts.
• We recommend setting your time to 40 min. and the temperature at 120 degrees. Allow the sauna to warm up for 10 min. while you change, drink water, and grab a towel
• Frequency should be discussed with your doctor. Some people do fine using the sauna everyday, where other’s find 3 -4 times a week sufficient.
• The best time to use the sauna is first thing in the morning, or last thing before bed ( I personally have found that I sweat more when I do my sessions in the morning)
• Dry skin brushing before a sauna session will help stimulate the lymphatic system
• Showering before the session may increase perspiration
• Clothing is optional, just be sure you are comfortable!
• Each sauna session should be enjoyable! Listen to your radio, read a book, or just sit back and relax!
• Once your session has ended, it is recommended that you stay in the sauna for an additional 5 – 10 minutes. Some have found increased sweating by doing this.
• Feel free to use aromatic oils during your sauna session, as long as you know how to use them correctly!
• If you feel dizzy, faint, light headed, or nauseous leave the sauna immediately. Drink lots of water and seek medical attention immediately!
• Pregnant women and children under five should avoid saunas. Young children must be accompanied by an adult.
• During your session you may start to notice your body reacting to the toxins being released, whether it be odors, rashes, odd tastes, fatigue, headaches, or gastrointestinal movement. This may be considered normal but if it becomes severe, seek medical attention immediately!
