Frequently Asked Questions

Is it safe to use an infrared sauna regularly?

For most healthy adults, regular use is safe. Many clients enjoy infrared sauna sessions several times per week, with some using them daily. Sessions usually last 20 to 40 minutes. Because infrared saunas operate at lower air temperatures, they’re generally easier on the body than traditional high-heat saunas. Our installations use low-EMF components for added peace of mind. As always, individuals with medical conditions should consult a healthcare provider before beginning a new wellness routine.

Can I customize my infrared sauna with additional features?

Yes. Infrared saunas are highly customizable. Popular upgrades include chromotherapy lighting, Bluetooth or built-in audio systems, Himalayan salt accents for ambiance, smart digital controls, and glass doors. We also tailor finishes to match your interior design—whether you prefer a modern look or a warm, natural aesthetic.

Why do many homeowners choose infrared saunas instead of traditional ones?

Infrared saunas are popular for their gentle heat and energy efficiency. Instead of heating the surrounding air to high temperatures, infrared panels warm the body directly. This allows for comfortable sessions at lower temperatures, making infrared saunas easier to use more frequently. They also require less power and minimal ventilation, making them ideal for modern homes and condos.

Where can an infrared sauna be installed in a San Antonio home?

Infrared saunas are highly flexible because they don’t require plumbing and have lower ventilation needs. Common locations include:

* Primary bathrooms for spa-style convenience

* Home gyms for post-workout recovery

* Spare bedrooms converted into wellness rooms

* Finished garages or interior flex spaces

* Walk-in closets or unused alcoves in condos

During your consultation, we evaluate space, electrical access, and usage goals to recommend the ideal placement.

How does infrared heat differ from traditional sauna heat?

Infrared saunas use light waves to penetrate the body directly rather than heating the air. This allows the room to remain at a lower temperature—typically 100°F to 130°F—while still producing a deep, therapeutic sweat. Many users find infrared heat more comfortable for longer sessions while still experiencing benefits such as muscle relaxation, circulation support, and stress relief.
