Blog Article
Bringing an infrared sauna into your home is one of the most rewarding health investments you can make—but with so many options out there, finding the perfect fit can feel overwhelming. Whether you're creating a compact wellness corner or curating a full spa sanctuary, this guide will walk you through everything you need to know.
From heater types to design styles, here’s how to choose the ideal infrared sauna—featuring expert recommendations from JNH Lifestyles, a leader in home infrared sauna innovation.
Why Infrared? A Smarter, More Comfortable Sauna Experience
Unlike traditional steam saunas that heat the air, infrared saunas use light to warm your body directly—allowing you to sweat more efficiently at lower temperatures. This means you can enjoy longer, more comfortable sessions with deeper health benefits.
Science-backed benefits include:
Enhanced cardiovascular performance and blood flow¹
Pain relief from inflammation, arthritis, and muscle fatigue²
Deep detoxification via sweat³
Skin improvement, from acne reduction to a more even tone⁴
Reduced stress and better sleep quality⁵
Step 1: Choose Your Heat Technology
Infrared saunas come in three types, based on the wavelength emitted:
Far Infrared (FIR): Best for detox, relaxation, and circulation
Mid Infrared (MIR): Targets soft tissues and muscle recovery
Near Infrared (NIR): Helps skin, cell regeneration, and wound healing
???? Best of all worlds? Go for a Full Spectrum Sauna like those in the Tosi™ Collection from JNH Lifestyles—blending near, mid, and far wavelengths for maximum wellness impact.
Step 2: Match the Sauna to Your Space
Saunas come in a variety of sizes. Consider who will use it, how often, and where it will be placed:
1-Person Sauna: Compact and ideal for small homes or apartments
2-Person Sauna: Offers more room to stretch or enjoy a session with a partner
3-Person Sauna: A good middle ground for shared use or larger individuals
4-Person Sauna: Great for families or spa-style spaces
