SAUNA PROTOCOL
Follow this quick guide for the optimal sauna experience.
PRE-SAUNA SESSION
• Hydrate with at least one glass of water to prepare your body for an increase
in core temperature.
SAUNA SESSIONS
• A toilet is located onsite through the chill out room should you need to use one.
• Clothes are optional in the sauna, which is located in a private lockable room.
• Towels are provided if you wish to robe up and a towel is also provided to sit on. If you wish to bring your own towels that’s also fine.
• Use the face washer provided to absorb sweat during sessions.
• The optimal sauna experience occurs between 38°C and 58°C.
• High heat is not required to provide the benefits of Infrared. The sauna is not designed to run at high heat 65°C+ for long periods, and neither is your body.
• To get your body accustomed to infrared therapy, start with sessions at 38°C and increase the temperature as you feel comfortable to. Remember to listen to your body’s needs.
• If comfortable with current settings, gradually increase the temperature.
• Don’t be surprised if you don’t sweat during the first few sessions.
POST SAUNA SESSION
• Drink at least 750ml of water or electrolyte to rehydrate.
• Dry off with the extra towel provided, cool down naturally with the fan or
with a refreshing shower.
*Listen to your body. Be aware of excessive detoxifying. If you begin to feel symptoms such as nausea, fatigue, or flu-like symptoms during your sauna session, discontinue use immediately. If these symptoms continue, consult your physician.
FAQ
What is the best temperature to use my sauna?
First, it is important to understand that health benefits are a result of efficient infrared emissivity, not air temperature.
Sunlighten saunas are 95-99% emissive to deliver the highest concentration of infrared. With that, the optimal sauna experience occurs between 38-58°C. During your first few sessions, start at a lower temperature of 38°C and gradually increase in later sessions.
Everyone has different preferences and tolerances for heat. The most important thing is to listen to your body. Keep in mind, if you’re sweating at 46°C you’re getting the same benefits as if sweating at 66°C.
Can I touch the heaters?
No. The heaters will be hot, especially the mid-infrared section in the middle, so it is not safe to touch heaters while on or an hour after use. Touching the frames that cover the heaters is safe.
Don't worry, you wont be able to touch the heaters unless you remove the covers.
Are the EMF levels safe?
Yes. Patented SoloCarbon panels are 100% quality controlled by Sunlighten to ensure the safety and effectiveness of each individual heater.
