Description

Infrared saunas seem to be increasing in popularity with advocates championing their wide ranging benefits from better sleep, improved circulation, increased detoxification and relief from muscular pain.

Unlike a traditional sauna, infrared saunas don’t heat the air around you. Instead, they use infrared lamps (that use electromagnetic radiation) to warm your body directly.

While there are several studies and research on traditional saunas, there aren’t as many studies that look specifically at infrared saunas so this is where we come in to test it on this weeks episode and it’s Eve going under the lamps.

Can infrared saunas help improve Eve’s circulation or is it just a lot of hot air?
