    I'm so glad to hear the respect here for infrared sauna. I'd like to try the finnish sauna one day, but for my lifestyle, the sauna I bought - cedar, low emf, etc - is perfect. I had stopped using it feeling it was a waste because I had run into so many posts and comments on how its not a REAL sauna. Same thing happened when Katy Bowman whom I love, said treadmill walking was junk food exercise. I kept trying to walk outside consistently but in the city as a 72 year old, I often felt uncomfortable. I'm back to using my treadmill and my sauna (along with weights) because it is my best chance to get a consistent workout. I'm 72 and these tools are helping me enjoy this stage of life. Thanks for the great video.

    My daughter is 25 and has struggled with anxiety and depression in addition to other health issues since she was 14. Recently, she started cold plunges and is now using the sauna after. After trying. After trying traditional and infrared she handles infrared much better as the traditional was more difficult for her to breathe in. I’m so excited she is doing this and it is having a big impact on her overall wellness.

    I work at a hot spring retreat center and soak in hot springs, sweat in the sauna, and do cold plunges everyday. We have a classic Finnish sauna and I prefer the original over infrared. My parents have an infrared and it really only heats up the parts of your body that are close to the elements. It does the job when I am away from Finnish style but I prefer water in rocks with eucalyptus. Such a better experience in my opinion

    Another possible advantage of the infrared is that, at least with the sun, is if you are eating greens and then getting out into the sun after you are into digestion the infrared that penetrates the skin will interact with some of the compounds from the leafy greens and you end up making CoQ10. When it is sunny, I try to start a walk about 45 minutes after my breakfast smoothie (which is filled with leafy greens) and we walk for 30 to 45 minutes.

    I already have a red light as well as one of the silly looking infrared saunas you sit in with your head (and hands) out. I am thinking of adding an indoor dry sauna because I think the higher temps will make doing contrast with cold easier and less time consuming than IR for the hot part. For infrared, I like my seated style over a blanket because you can read or watch videos easily. I guess the blanket is good if you want to meditate or do breathwork while in it. Soooo, what about indoor traditional saunas...? I keep hoping for an obvious hybrid option that comes recommended.

    Regarding (far) infrared saunas.. I like the Radiant Health (E-1H or the EC-3H ) but wouldn't mind modifying it a bit to put a 1 way mirror instead of the glass... putting the temperature sensor on the outside, so that it keeps driving heat instead of stopping at 149F... and finally, would love to install red-light panels on the roof. Perhaps jumping to a 5-10min ice-bath.. or even better if the shower itself could be plumb'd such that 5C water comes out! See the video, "Making Your Shower Deliver ICE COLD water for Wim Hof Cold Showers" . Maybe just sticking your head, fore-arms/hands in an ice dishpan twice a day! Outside of the shower, it would be nice to add heat-lamps so that you can warm/dry back up quickly!

    Kimberly: Actually, the infrared band of light (aka EMF, RFI, radio waves etc.) is a higher frequency / shorter wavelength than all "radio" frequencies. It's almost visible as red light.

    The big difference between the two is definitely the light waves that travel into you skin. Those glowing rods you need to get this effect. A sauna blanket is not the same because that infrared energy is radiation and not light. Look it up, Infrared light and radiation are two completely different things. Infrared light is not radiation but is the same as comes from the sun. Dr. Berg also has a very good video on this. Infrared light is very good for vitamine D generation and also good for your midrogondria

    My car - sun - windows up. Turn on heater if needed. But what's the big deal with keeping the heat mild, or with using IR in a steam room I don't get it? This Winter I'm planning on a sweat tent because the heat is even and more efficient. I think I can then use an outdoor cord on a separate circuit for a single IR bulb - about 500 watts - to treat bits at a time. Why not? However, I'd also like to be able to recline, like on a bench in a full size version of either - who wants to sit in a chair??. Why not? Without needing a lot money and space which I have neither of at the time being. And I have issues with lungs and circulation that I need to treat especially during the Winter to keep from getting sick.

How do you get these nicer wood FIR saunas rinsed out and clean without taking it outside on a hand truck and blasting it with a garden house while tipping it over?

    Traditional sauna can also be powered by an electric heater! In fact, most of the saunas I've been to (and as an Eastern European, I've been to quite a few) turn on at a touch of a button, and don't require making a fire:)

    I personally love the steam room much more than any sauna but i do enjoy the sauna when there's no steam room available. An infared sauna -- if you make your own according to Dr. Wilson with red lights, has much more intense benefits for the body. I have a DIY steam room and a DIY infared sauna with lights that my brother-n-law built for me, and I can tell you that I have gotten MUCH more theraputic effects with it than I *ever* have with a traditional sauna. The lights are no joke, and can draw things out of you that have been embedded in your tissue for YEARS andI I've never heard of a traditional finish sauna being able to go that deep. With that being said I prefer the traditional sauna over the infrared because I like the ambient heat but like I said previously, I prefer the steam room over either. What worls for follks really boils down to their goals.

    Infared is far superior for many reasons, you still sweat, you can add a small oil diffuser (like I do) to get the same effects of essential oils with traditional steam. Infared doesnt go as hot as finnish, but it doesnt need to, especially if you in a quality unit that does full spectrum.
