Why are the different color lights inside the Sauna?

Chromotherapy is the science of using colors to adjust body vibrations to frequencies that result in health and harmony. Each color possesses frequencies of a specific vibration, and each vibration is related to different physical symptoms. Chromotherapy works on various energy points to help your body re-establish its natural balance.

What temperature is best for me?

First, it is important to understand that health benefits are a result of efficient infrared emissivity, not air temperature. Sunlighten saunas are 95-99% emissive to deliver the highest concentration of infrared. With that, the optimal sauna experience occurs between 100.4-129°F. During your first few sessions, start at a lower temperature of 100.4°F and gradually increase in later sessions. Everyone has different preferences and tolerances for heat. The most important thing is to listen to your body. Keep in mind, if you’re sweating at 115°F you’re getting the same benefits as if sweating at 151°F. Check the Sauna Session details to decide which session you prefer.
