Frequently Asked Questions
Our saunas are Jacuzzi Clearlight Sanctuary “FULL SPECTRUM” saunas from Infrared Sauna of Indiana. These are the top rated saunas in the U.S. They offer a combination of near, mid and far infrared lightwaves.
Infrared heat is completely safe and healthy for all living things. You can be exposed to infrared light for hours without the risk of burning. Within nature, Infrared is a naturally occurring output of the sun, but does not contain the harmful UV rays associated with unprotected sunlight. Infrared light is used by various physicians and is even used to warm babies in the hospital.
Our saunas use the most effective and safe infrared heaters on the market today. The EMF and ELF levels in our infrared saunas will be mostly below 1mg when tested directly on the heater itself. Where you are sitting in the sauna, the EMF and ELF levels of infrared saunas are 0 mG and under 200 mV (ELF) of exposure. The ELF levels in our saunas are 3 – 5 times below the threshold of concern. Jacuzzi Clearlight infrared saunas are again the industry leader in lowest EMF/ELF levels.
No. Pregnant women should not use infrared heat technology. Please consult your physician before booking a session.
Yes! You must be a minimum of 16 years old to use our services. All individuals under the age of 18 years old must have a signed parental consent form prior to booking a session.
Metal pins, rods, artificial joints or any other surgical implants generally reflect infrared waves and thus are not heated by this system. Nevertheless, you should consult your physician prior to using an infrared sauna.
Every sauna session brings benefits and every person has individualized health and wellness goals. In general, we recommend 2 to 3 times per week. For more aggressive results 4 to 5 times a week may be recommended.

Family is defined by members living in the same household. We allow up to 5 members under a family membership. Again, all members must live in the same household. Children must be 25 and under. You are allowed to bring a guest once per month for a guest charge of $20 per session.

If any of the following conditions apply to you, please consult your physician prior to using our Infrared Sauna services.
- Pregnancy
- Women who are pregnant should not use an infrared sauna or any therapies that raise core body temperature. Post-birth and during breast feeding, infrared therapy is typically safe to resume. However, please consult your doctor prior to booking a session.
- Pacemakers / Defibrillators
- The magnets used to assemble our saunas can interrupt the pacing and inhibit the output of pacemakers. Please discuss with your doctor the possible risks this may cause.
- Cardiovascular Issues, Obesity or Diabetes
- Individuals suffering from obesity or with a medical history of heart disease, low or high blood pressure, circulatory problems or diabetes should consult a physician prior to use.
- Medications
- Individuals who are using prescription drugs should seek the advice of their personal physician since some medications may induce drowsiness, while others may affect heart rate, blood pressure and circulation.
- Alcohol & Drug Abuse
- Contrary to popular belief, it is not advisable to attempt to “sweat out” a hangover. Alcohol intoxication decreases a person’s judgment; therefore, he/she may not realize when the body has a negative reaction to high heat. Alcohol also increases the heart rate, which may be further increased by heat stress. The use of alcohol, drugs or medications prior to a sauna session may lead to unconsciousness.
- Elderly
- The ability to maintain core body temperature decreases with age. This is primarily due to circulatory conditions and decreased sweat gland function. The body must be able to activate its natural cooling processes in order to maintain core body temperature. If elderly, operate at a lower temperature and for no more than 15 minutes at a time.
- Chronic Conditions / Diseases Associated With Reduced Ability To Sweat Or Perspire
- Multiple Sclerosis, Central Nervous System Tumors and Diabetes with Neuropathy are conditions that are associated with impaired sweating. Consult a physician.
- Hemophiliacs / Individuals Prone To Bleeding
- The use of infrared saunas should be avoided by anyone who is predisposed to bleeding.
- Fever & Insensitivity to Heat
- Individuals with insensitivity to heat or who have a fever should not use the sauna until the fever subsides.
- Joint Injury
- Recent (acute) joint injury should not be heated for the first 48 hours or until the swollen symptoms subside. Joints that are chronically hot and swollen may respond poorly to vigorous heating of any kind.
