About saunas with infrared sauna
Infrared saunas use panels that emit infrared light to warm your body directly. Because the air does not need to be as hot, cabins run at around 45–65°C and sessions commonly last 30–45 minutes. The heat is dry and radiant, a bit like sitting in strong sun.
Infrared rooms are usually private or for two people, which makes them popular for a quiet session, a date, or anyone self-conscious about shared bathing. They are widely available in Australian recovery studios, day spas and dedicated infrared studios.
SaunaFindr currently lists 59 venues under infrared sauna, with starting prices from $25.
Frequently asked questions
How hot is an infrared sauna?
Most infrared cabins run at about 45–65°C, much cooler than a traditional sauna, because the panels warm your body directly.
How long is an infrared sauna session?
Typically 30 to 45 minutes. Start shorter if you are new, and drink water before and after.
