What is the difference between Traditional Saunas and Rocky Mountain Infrared Saunas?
Traditional Saunas (Hot Rock and Steam) use convection heat, which heats the air and the hot air heats our skin. Typically, traditional saunas operate in a temperature range of 170 – 190 degrees Fahrenheit, which can be too high for safe human use.
Infrared Saunas with Carbon Fiber heating panels produce a soft, gentle heat that is instantly comforting and relaxing.
Rocky Mountain Saunas use radiant heat, which uses tuned frequency infrared energy to heat the human body directly with typical cabin temperatures of 115 – 140 degrees Fahrenheit. Radiant heat from infrared saunas has proven beneficial for more than 100 separate health conditions.
Infrared Saunas with Carbon Fiber heating panels produce a soft, gentle heat that is instantly comforting and relaxing without a claustrophobic feeling or difficulty in breathing.
