INSIGHT

Sauna Benefits

  • Regular sauna use significantly reduces cardiovascular disease risk and all-cause mortality.
  • Sauna use also improves mood, potentially by influencing heat shock proteins and endorphin release.
ADVICE

Sauna Types

  • Dry saunas offer faster heating than infrared saunas.
  • Robbie Bent suggests that hotter saunas are more effective due to increased stress response, although this view is controversial.
ADVICE

Contrast Therapy

  • Contrast therapy (alternating sauna and cold plunge) can cause dizziness due to rapid heart rate fluctuations.
  • Space out sauna and cold plunge sessions, but combining them in one session isn't inherently dangerous.
