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.
