Before you go

Not published
Their website did not say prices, temperatures, what to wear, whether sessions are mixed or single-sex, booking rules or age rules when we checked (November 2, 2026). Check their website or call.

Quotes are copied word for word from the venue's own pages; we do not set or check prices. “Not published” means we could not find it on their site, not that it does not apply.

What an infrared sauna studio is

An infrared sauna studio rents private or semi-private cabins with infrared panels that warm you more than the air around you, so the room runs cooler than a Finnish sauna. Most studios sell timed sessions by booking, and many add red-light panels, a cold plunge or a shower in each suite.

  1. Infrared sauna
    110 to 150°F, air
    110 to 150°F, air
Typical temperatures, from cold plunge to Finnish sauna. Each venue sets its own; check the numbers posted on site.

What to bring

  • Not much: most studios supply towels and a shower
  • A water bottle
  • Headphones if the cabin has a speaker connection
  • Clothes you can change back into after showering

Etiquette

  • Book ahead: sessions are timed and suites are often private.
  • Arrive a few minutes early to change and shower.
  • Wipe down the bench and leave the suite tidy for the next guest.
  • Start with a shorter session if you are new to it.
