Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose infrared over a traditional sauna?

Infrared saunas are especially popular in Denver because they provide a gentler, energy-efficient alternative to traditional high-heat saunas. Instead of heating the air to 160°F–200°F, infrared saunas warm the body directly at a lower range of 100°F–130°F. This makes them more accessible for daily use and for people sensitive to intense heat. They also consume less energy and can be installed in smaller spaces without extensive ventilation. Traditional saunas are still a great choice for those who love the classic high-heat experience, but infrared saunas are ideal for convenience, energy savings, and everyday comfort.

What are the best places in a Denver home for an infrared sauna?

Infrared saunas are highly adaptable since they don’t require plumbing or heavy ventilation. Popular placements in Denver include spare bedrooms converted into wellness retreats, master bathrooms for spa-level convenience, and home gyms for post-workout recovery. Condo owners downtown often use walk-in closets or alcoves, while suburban homes may dedicate basement corners or garage studios. Their flexibility makes infrared saunas an excellent choice for homes of all sizes. During your consultation, we’ll review your property and recommend the most practical location.

How does an infrared sauna work?

Infrared saunas use invisible light waves to warm your body directly rather than simply heating the air. This allows the environment to stay at a comfortable 100°F–130°F while still encouraging deep sweating, better circulation, and faster muscle recovery. Because the heat is gentle and targeted, sessions feel more relaxing and less overwhelming compared to traditional saunas. Many Denver residents find this makes it easier to enjoy longer sessions, leading to greater overall wellness benefits.

Is daily use of an infrared sauna safe?

Yes. For most healthy adults, regular use—even daily—is safe and beneficial. Many Denver clients use their infrared sauna 3–5 times a week, while some enjoy sessions every day. Typical use lasts 20–40 minutes and offers benefits like detoxification, stress reduction, and improved sleep. Because infrared panels operate at lower temperatures than traditional saunas, they are easier on the cardiovascular system and more comfortable for longer sessions. We only install low-EMF panels for added safety. As always, if you are pregnant or managing health conditions, consult your physician before beginning a sauna routine.

Can I customize my infrared sauna with upgrades?

Absolutely. Infrared saunas are highly flexible and can be enhanced with a variety of wellness and design features. Options include chromotherapy lighting for mood balance, Bluetooth speakers for guided meditation or music, Himalayan salt walls for ambiance and air quality, ergonomic seating for comfort, and smart controls for easy adjustment of heat and lighting. Denver homeowners often personalize finishes to match their interiors—from sleek glass-panel doors in modern condos to rustic wood designs for mountain homes. These details make your sauna truly one of a kind.
