The Science & Comfort of Low-Temperature Infrared Sauna

Why You Don’t Have to Drip with Sweat to Reap the Benefits

When most people think of saunas, they imagine a room so hot it feels like stepping into an oven—where the goal is to sweat as much as possible. But at Kairos Float & Wellness Studio, our approach to infrared sauna is different.


Our low-temperature infrared sauna operates at a comfortable 100–120°F, making it accessible to people who find traditional saunas too intense. Even better—you don’t need to leave drenched in sweat to get results.


How Infrared Sauna Works

Unlike traditional saunas that heat the air around you, infrared saunas use light waves to penetrate the skin and gently raise your core body temperature. This deep, cellular-level heating stimulates a variety of beneficial responses in your body—including improved circulation, detoxification support, and muscle relaxation—without requiring extreme surface heat.

Why Sweating Isn’t the Whole Story

Yes, sweat can help your body release stored toxins through your skin. But with infrared sauna, the benefits go far beyond sweat production:


  1. Increased Blood Flow & Oxygen Delivery Even at lower temperatures, infrared light boosts circulation, which can reduce muscle soreness, speed recovery, and promote overall cardiovascular health.

  2. Cellular Detoxification The heat triggers your lymphatic system and supports natural detox pathways at a deeper level than surface sweating alone.

  3. Nervous System Reset Lower temperatures avoid overstressing your body, making it easier to activate your parasympathetic (“rest and digest”) state—perfect for stress relief.

  4. Skin & Joint Benefits Gentle, consistent heat supports collagen production and can soothe joint stiffness without the fatigue some people experience in traditional saunas.


Who Benefits from Low-Temp Infrared Sauna?

Low-temp infrared sessions are ideal for:

  • People sensitive to high heat

  • Those with cardiovascular concerns who need a gentler approach

  • Athletes seeking recovery without added stress

  • Anyone who prefers a meditative, spa-like experience over an endurance test
