Guide to infrared studios

Infrared studios specialise in private sauna rooms heated by infrared panels rather than a stove. Cabins run cooler than traditional saunas, around 45–65°C, and sessions are longer, usually 30–45 minutes. The dry, radiant warmth suits people who find traditional saunas overwhelming.

Most studios sell single sessions, packs and memberships, and many offer rooms for two. Some add red-light therapy, chromotherapy or a cold plunge for contrast.

Choosing an infrared studio

Look at session length, whether rooms are private, what is included (towels, showers, toiletries) and whether there is a cold plunge if you want contrast therapy. Book ahead for evenings and weekends.

SaunaFindr currently lists 33 venues under infrared studios, with starting prices from $25.

Frequently asked questions

Is infrared better than a traditional sauna?
Neither is better; they are different. Infrared is gentler and longer; traditional saunas are hotter, shorter and steamier. Many people enjoy both.
Are infrared studios good for beginners?
Yes. Infrared runs at a gentler temperature than a traditional sauna and is usually private, which makes it one of the most beginner-friendly options.
