🎙️Ep 68: Ask Jen – Infrared Saunas vs Traditional Saunas | Encore Episode

Saunas have been used for centuries, but not all heat therapy is the same. In this encore Ask Jen session, I answer one of the most common questions: What’s the difference between an infrared sauna and a traditional sauna, and which one is right for you?

We’ll talk about why infrared is gentler, how it helps detoxify at a deeper level, and the surprising cost and maintenance benefits. I also share my own healing journey, losing 125 pounds and detoxing from heavy metals with the help of infrared therapy. And you’ll hear a moving story from a firefighter who reclaimed his health and sleep through daily sauna use.
