Frequently Asked Questions

What does “4-in-1” sauna mean?

A four-in-one sauna provides four different sauna services on a single square meter: Himalayan salt cabin, infraredcabin, Finnish sauna, and steam sauna. This saves both space and money.

How often can I use the infrared sauna, and how effective is it for weight loss?

The gentle heat of the infrared sauna allows for daily use. During a half-hour infrared sauna session, you can burn up to 300 calories, as the body works by sweating and boosting circulation, as if you were rowing or running. This not only results in fluid loss but can also lead to weight loss.

Does the infrared sauna reduce pain, strengthen the immune system, and improve circulation?

The deep heat of the infrared sauna dilates blood vessels, bringing relief to muscles and tissues. The increased circulation enhances the removal of toxins, contributing to faster healing. The rise in temperature creates an artificial fever state, stimulating the immune system, and the detoxification through sweating further enhances resilience.

Does the infrared sauna help with detoxification, cellulite, and joint pain management?

Sweating helps remove toxins, such as heavy metals and chemicals. The heat of the infrared sauna penetrates deeply, thereby more effectively reducing cellulite, which many beauty salons utilize. Additionally, infrared treatment alleviates joint pains, muscle cramps, and other musculoskeletal complaints, which are particularly common in older age.

Does the infrared sauna strengthen the immune system?

The deep warmth of the infrared sauna cabin raises the body's temperature, inducing an artificial fever. As the body's immune system fights to overcome this (perceived) fever, it strengthens. Moreover, the intense sweating and removal of toxins and waste products from the body greatly enhance your health and resistance to diseases.

Safety Concerns: Medication, Alcohol, Implants, and Other Special Cases

If taking medications, consult with your doctor as some medications can affect the body's heat dissipation capacity. Sauna use is not recommended after consuming alcohol, as alcohol increases heart rate, which the sauna can further enhance. In case of implants, consult a doctor, although generally, they do not heat up due to infrared rays. Silicone implants are not damaged by the sauna, but medical consultation is recommended.

Does it beautify the skin?

The abundant sweat, which appears within a few minutes in the infrared sauna cabin, contains deeply embedded pollutants and dead skin cells. The accelerated circulation brings out the skin’s natural nutrients, facilitating the healing of acne, rashes, burns, cuts: open wounds heal faster and leave smaller scars. 

Medication?

If you are taking prescription medications, consult with your doctor regarding potential changes in their effects due to the infrared waves and increased body temperature. Some medications can impair the body’s heat dissipation and processing capabilities.

Alcohol?

Contrary to popular belief, it is not advisable to "sweat out" a hangover. Being under the influence of alcohol reduces our judgment, so we are less likely to notice if the increased heat adversely affects us. Alcohol also raises the heart rate, which the sauna can further intensify.

Can people with hemophilia use the infrared sauna?

Those with hemophilia are advised to avoid using the infrared sauna.

Can the sauna be used in a feverish state?

It is not advisable to use any sauna when feverish.

Can you sauna during pregnancy?

Expectant mothers should seek their doctor's advice before using ANY sauna, as in some cases, the higher body temperature can harm the fetus.

Can you sauna during menstruation?

Infrared sauna use during "heavy days" can temporarily intensify menstruation. Some intentionally induce this effect to reduce pain associated with the cycle, while others simply avoid sauna use on those days.

Can you sauna with implants?

Metal legs, arms, artificial joints, or any other surgical implants generally reflect infrared waves, so this system does not heat them. Nevertheless, it is advisable to seek your doctor's opinion regarding infrared sauna use.

If you feel pain near an implant, do not continue using the infrared sauna. The implanted silicone or silicone-based ear/nose prostheses are heated by infrared rays. Since silicone starts to melt above 200 degrees Celsius, it is presumably not adversely affected by the infrared sauna. As always, it is advisable to seek the opinion of the doctor and the manufacturer.
