    I’m a 76 yrs old female and I’m using the sauna about 5 nights a wk for 10 mos. Now my blood pressure went down and I’m feeling better too. It’s an infrared light single person portable sauna. I’ve lost a few pounds too. I love it.

    I have been using a Finnelo infrared sauna for about two months now.
    generally 45 minutes at 60 degrees C...73 old male ... it has really helped with my arthritis pain and sleep quality. I noticed if I use it every other day I get better results.
    When it is cold it is truly like a nice long warm hug...I use a one person model set up in my
    apartment, only takes an area 3ft x 3ft and plugs into a standard 110 outlet . Great topic
    doctors, thank you.

The temperature ranges I’ve seen for infrared saunas are between 110 and 130 degrees. I’ve started at 110 for 20 minutes. I’m in excellent health, but the hot flashes are annoying. I’m excited to see how this works for me. Thanks for the great information.

    Grew up in the Netherlands during the 60’s and 70’s. Finnish sauna became very popular in the 60’s. My parents would go to the sauna once a week and were never sick. What I understood however and something that is not mentioned in the video and comments, proper cooling down is key. The saunas my parents went to included after the heating period, cooling of the body slowly: 1. Rinse wrists and feed with cold water for a few minutes, 2. going slowly in a cold water pool for as long as you could stand, 3. then going into a room temp pool for 5 min or so, and then 4. Sit with your feed in a hot water basin. This was called one round. My parents would do commonly 2 rounds, then relax by the fire and drink some fresh juice for 20 min followed by a 3rd round. I remember sitting with your feet in hot water was absolutely fantastic. Most saunas I have seen in the US do not have proper cooling down facilities, no hot foot baths and no place to relax. Furthermore, being in the nude is taboo. I would love to read comments on this. Thank you.

      Have been in Germany for work recently and the gym I belong to has a chain there. Had some of the best sleeps in a long time. Apparently it is the rapid drop in core body temperature which generates this. Skin is much better. I think the towel wrapped around you is better than the wet togs. I did feel exhausted after doing it four days in a row.

We've used the weight room only a couple times, but I do use the sauna on a regular basis to proof bread.

I feel that good cardio fitness is directly correlated to being able to handle high heat environments at a reduced stress level. I would assume that this works in the opposite way. Ie you could use a sauna to improve your cardio fitness, to some degree.

    I am a retired Atlantic Canada, RN after 40 years full time. I had a posterior hip replacement in January and in May, we went to Mexico. My hip was fine, but my left knee, which I am now waiting to have replaced was not. The humidity seemed to make the inflammation worse. Maybe it wasn't the humidity, but it sure seemed to be. So my question is this. We are going on a cruise in three weeks and we have a thermal spa pass. There are multiple types of Saunas. Salt room, regular sauna, infrared sauna, Eucalyptus sauna, ect. I am wondering if the humidity in the sauna may make my inflammation in my knee worse? I've already had by pre-op assessment, and I expect an OR date in early 2025. Side-note, the hip replacement was life changing.

    I vusit sauna every Friday, Saturday and Sunday on a regular basis for many years. Maximum time i allow me in the sauna is 7 minutes on average. But then as a rule i use the Jacuzzi for 15 minutes and try to do it twice, swimming in between.

    Docs didn't specifically mention sauna blankets, but according to some medical literature, the benefits are essentially the same.

    Can you address whether infrared Sauna like blankets provide the same types of benefits

      As long as it increases your core temperature there would be similar benefits

    1. Most commercial gyms that have dry or steam saunas are oriented to the "general public" who cannot take the high heat that I believe one needs to provide any benefits. In dry saunas, they usually top out out at about 165F (74F), and in their steam saunas it feels like Florida in the summer -- just not enough. For this reason, I go to specialized establishments which cater to those who want really high temperatures. In the the Archimedes Banya, which is run by Russian immigrants in San Francisco, one of the two dry saunas has temperature of 215F = 101.7C. Yes, above boiling point of water, but human body can withstand such a temp for a few minutes. These specialized establishments charge a pretty penny so if one were going to do it often enough, then it may make sense to install a sauna in one's home, if financially feasible.
    2. I usually accumulate approx. 60 min in a session, via multiple "trips" into the sauna, followed by a rest period, all in one session. According to my Garmin Forerunner 965, my body expends about 330 KCal per session, which is the same that I burn in a 3 mile run. And my heart rate is in Zone 2 throughout the session, and I feel more exhausted than after a 6 mile run. After a session like this, I feel like a dish rag and it takes me at least 12 hours to recover. Love both dry and steam saunas equally; they do different things. Am 71 and have been enjoying saunas since about 12.

    Does the infrared saunas have the same benefits from the hot rock sauna? Are the infrared saunas safe?

    A woman mentioned that they had to quit hot yoga because it affected their thyroid. Considering that hot yoga temperatures and humidity feel like a light sauna session is thyroid something to keep an eye on?

    My husband and i go to a place that has suites w infared sauna and cold plunge. He swears by both. I prefer the sauna only. The relaxation i feel when done is amazing. And much needed. Detoxing from mold. Anything i can do to help with that. Would love one in my garage.

    What about steam to cold plunge to sauna to cold plunge then let your body warm up in room temp?
    Like 10:2:5:1 minutes total?
    That’s my minimum 5-6 times a week evenings. Improved my sleep by an extra 2 hrs a nite…got me from 6 hrs to 8 hrs

    What about going to sauna right after strength exercise (in the gym) vs going to only sauna (not mixing these activities). Are there any special benefits when combining these two? Like faster muscle recovery? Or vice versa, are there any disadvantages?

    So we just went to Slovenia (my grandparents homeland) and we stayed at a hotel with a sauna. My husband spend 3 hours using the sauna and you forgot to mention one of the benefits. You were only allowed in with a towel and a sheet, no bathing suit. Of coarse, the cold plunge was included!

    Nice! Now do jacuzzi - whirlpool - hot tub (with and without jets). I go from sauna to jacuzzi for the jets on muscles. Is that good, better, best or... shouldn't do that combo?

    What about having low BP? Dialtion lowers the bp if the heart is not capable of pumping hard. Causing alot dizziness and potentially blacking out.
