Q: How long can I sit in the sauna?

In a traditional sauna, the recommended duration is 5-15 minutes with a 5-minute cooling break. Repeat this cycle as desired for optimal benefits, starting with shorter sessions if it’s your first time. Take longer breaks between sessions to prevent overheating.

Always listen to your body and consult a healthcare professional, especially if you have underlying health conditions, before starting a new sauna routine.

A: To truly savor your sauna experience, proper preparation is key. Begin by hydrating your body and cleansing your skin to remove any oils or makeup. As you step into the sauna, take your time to find a cozy spot to sit or lie down on the towel provided. Allow yourself to be enveloped by the warmth and embrace the tranquil atmosphere. Sink into the soothing heat, unwind, and let go of all your stress and worries.
Q: What should I do after a sauna session?
A: After your sauna session, take a few minutes to cool down with cooling towels. Hydrate with water and consider light activity to boost circulation and relax muscles.
Q: Are there any health problems I should be concerned about?
A: Sauna sessions can be very beneficial, but it’s important to keep in mind that they may not be suitable for everyone. If you have any underlying medical conditions, we recommend consulting with your doctor before using our sauna facilities. Additionally, if you experience any discomfort or medical issues during your sauna session, we recommend ending the session immediately and seeking medical attention if necessary. Some people may also experience dizziness or lightheadedness after a sauna session, which can be alleviated by sitting or lying down and drinking plenty of water. If you have any concerns about your health or safety, our staff will be available to assist you and answer any questions you may have.
Q: How often can I enjoy a sauna session?

Our Helo brand Infrasauna takes it to the next level, combining the best of both worlds by blending a classic traditional sauna heater with a customized infrared room. With this unique combination, you can enjoy a truly comprehensive sauna experience, no matter what your needs may be.
