Tips for using Your Sauna

 

 
 

1)  

If you take a hot/warm shower or bath before using your sauna, you may perspire more and experience 

more comfort. 

2)   

Drink water prior to, during, and after your sauna session to replenish body fluids. 

3)   

To regulate the set temperature inside the sauna to your comfort level, use the movable roof ventilation 
or leave the door open slightly.  The roof ventilation is installed on the sauna and used based on 
personal preference. 

4)   

Use 2 or 3 towels during your sauna session. Fold one of the towels several times and place it on the 

bench.  This towel will absorb some of your perspiration while adding comfort as you sit on the bench. 
Place another towel on the floor to absorb perspiration as it falls from your body (only on Ceramic Model 
Saunas).  Be sure not to place any towels over the floor heat emitters.  Use a third towel to wipe perspiration 
from your body from time to time. 

  

5)    

At the first sign of a cold or flu, increasing your sauna sessions may be beneficial in boosting your immune   

        system and decreasing the reproductive rate of viruses. 

6)   

To help relieve sore and tense muscles, massage the affected areas during your sauna session. 

7)  

To treat your ankles and feet more effectively, you can elevate them and move them close to one of the 
heat emitters to achieve a deep heating effect. 

8)   

To utilize the sauna's heat therapy effect, put oil or treatment into your hair and wrap it with a towel.  After 
your sauna session is over, rinse your hair thoroughly.   Please follow the product directions for the 
intended benefits. 

9)   

The peaceful and relaxed state rendered by a sauna session may help you to sleep easier and deeper. 

10) 

To conserve energy consumption, please unplug your sauna when not in use. 

11)  

After the sauna session is over, do not jump into the shower or bath immediately. Because your body was 

heated up during the sauna session, it will continue to perspire even after the heat emitters are off. Sit in 
the sauna with the door open slightly and let your body cool down. Once your body has cooled down and 
you feel comfortable, you can exit the sauna.  After about twenty minutes and when your body has 
completely cooled down, you can take a shower to rinse the perspiration off your body. 

 
 
 
 
 

Safety Instructions

 

1.)  Read and follow all instructions carefully before using the sauna. 

2.)  When installing and using the electrical equipment, safety precautions should always be followed. 
3.)  To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to use the sauna unless they are closely supervised at all 

times by an adult. 

4.)  Do not use the sauna immediately following strenuous exercises. Wait at least 30 minutes to allow the 

body to cool down completely. 

5.)  Pregnant or possibly pregnant women should contact their physician prior to using the sauna. Excessive 

temperature has a high potential for causing fetal damage during pregnancy. 

6.)  

Hyperthermia Danger

: the normal body temperature can't rise above 39°C (103°F). Symptoms of 

excessive hyperthermia include dizziness, lethargy, drowsiness, and fainting. The effects of excessive 
hyperthermia may include failure to perceive heat, physical inability to exit sauna, unawareness of 
impending hazard, unconsciousness and fetal damage in pregnant women. Hyperthermia could make your 
body's core temperature rise.  Setting desired temperature to an excessively high temperature is not 
recommended. 

7.)  The use of alcohol, drugs, or medications prior to or during the sauna session may lead to 

unconsciousness and/or other harmful physical injuries .
