Sauna type

Infrared saunas

An infrared sauna uses panels that warm your body directly rather than heating the air and stones. The air stays cooler than in a traditional sauna and you can't pour water to make steam.

They usually draw less power and warm up quickly. Whether it feels like a 'proper' sauna is a matter of taste, so try one before committing if you can.
