Infrared Sauna
Private Infrared Sauna Sessions
Typical Time: 30 min - 40 min
The sauna experience at Sage Holistic Spa goes beyond traditional relaxation methods by providing a deep detoxification process that involves the whole body. By promoting induced sweating, saunas effectively help eliminate toxins and impurities built up in the body. The elevated temperatures stimulate sweat glands and enhance blood circulation, allowing the body to not only lose water but also release a substantial amount of stored toxins, including heavy metals and environmental chemicals.
The Experience
Define your Objectives
Goals serve as the foundation for any sauna therapy program. Whether your aim is to detoxify, reduce stress, enhance cardiovascular health, or support muscle recovery, clearly defining your objectives will help customize your sauna sessions for optimal results. Having a clear understanding of your goals also leads to a more purposeful and focused sauna experience.
Hydrate!
Staying hydrated is vital before entering a sauna. Given the high temperatures and the sweating involved, it’s important to drink water beforehand to ensure your body remains sufficiently hydrated during the session. Proper hydration prepares your body, helping to prevent dehydration and enhancing the detoxification process, making your sauna experience both safe and more effective.
Temperature Increase
Gradually extending the length of sauna sessions is crucial for beginners or those acclimating to higher temperatures. Begin with shorter sessions of about 5-10 minutes and slowly increase the duration as your body adjusts to the heat. This method helps your body acclimate, minimizing the risk of overheating and allowing you to fully experience the therapeutic benefits over time.
Cool Down
Recovery after sauna use is just as crucial as the session itself. After leaving the sauna, it’s important to cool down gradually. Consider taking a lukewarm shower, rehydrate by drinking water, and rest for a few minutes to allow your body temperature to normalize. Pay attention to your body’s signals during and after sauna sessions to prevent overheating and to fully enjoy the benefits of relaxation and detoxification.
Get the Relaxation you deserve
At Sage Holistic Spa, our sauna experiences are carefully designed to usher you into a state of deep relaxation.

The benefits of sauna sessions go beyond the physical; they also enhance mental and emotional well-being. The quiet, secluded space of the sauna offers a unique opportunity to disconnect from the outside world, allowing for mindful meditation or simply enjoying the peace.
