How long should I stay in the sauna?

The duration you should spend in the sauna can vary based on your experience and comfort level, but a general guideline is to aim for 20 to 30 minutes per session. New users may want to start with shorter sessions of around 10-15 minutes and gradually work up to longer durations as they become accustomed to the heat.

It’s essential to listen to your body; if you start to feel dizzy or uncomfortable, it’s best to exit the sauna and cool down. Hydration is also vital, so ensure you drink water before and after your session to avoid dehydration.

For regular users, longer sessions can provide deeper relaxation and enhanced benefits, such as improved circulation and detoxification. For instance, some users regularly enjoy a 45-minute session while watching a show or listening to music.

Pro Tip: Use a timer to track your session length, so you don’t lose track of time while enjoying the heat.

Consideration: If you have health concerns, consult a doctor before determining your sauna session duration.
