You can best use the potential of the infra red therapy when setting the
temperature to the top value.
Thus your body will use the full potential of the infra red radiation during your
stay in the sauna cabin. If you set the temperature to a lower value the heaters
will switch off and on to keep the set temperature. As direct action of the infra
red rays is much more eff ective than the high temperature itself in some cases
you may deprive yourself of part of the therapeutic eff ect of your sauna for some
periods of your stay in the cabin. Instead reduction of the set temperature you
can regulate the heat inside the sauna by the movable roof ventilation or by let-
ting the door ajar.
Take a shower and dry your body profoundly before entering the sauna
cabin.
Do not use the sauna immediately after intensive physical exercise. Wait
for at least 15 minutes to permit your body cool down properly.
Use at least 2-3 towels. Sit on one of the towels folded several times to
make a good bottom padding. Place another towel on the fl oor for sweat
absorption and place the third towel on your knees to wipe the sweat. Thus you
will support more sweating.
Take a face cloth with you to wipe your face when you start sweating. A
rough face cloth will remove dead face complexion cells and your com-
plexion will be rejuvenated and smoothed. You can do the same on the other
parts of your body with a towel, a brush or peeling salt.
Morning after bedtime is the best time for sauna if you can get up
30 minutes earlier. When you get up, take a few stretching exercises,
sweat out in your infra sauna, take a shower and drink a couple of glasses
of fresh water. You cannot fi nd a better source of energy for the day. If you
have problems with falling asleep use your sauna in the evening. The peace
and relaxation inside your sauna will help you fall asleep.
The best position in the sauna is seating, not lying.
The heaters are placed to provide maximum benefi t to a seated person
with straight back and feet on the bench level.
The temperature inside the infra sauna on your entry is irrelevant. You
will start sweating after 15 minutes anyway. For that reason you need
not wait for the sauna to be fully heated up. The best way is to enter when
the sauna starts heating and heat your body together with the sauna cabin.
It is not recommended to take a shower immediately after exiting the
sauna cabin. As your body heated in the cabin you will continue sweat-
ing for some time after switching off the haters, even after leaving the sauna.
Sit down in the sauna with the cabin door open and let your body sweat to
cool. When you feel pleasant take a lukewarm (not cold) shower to wash the
sweat off your body. It is not recommended to use soap after sauna for your
