Just as the name implies, infrared saunas make use of infrared heaters in order to emit infrared radiant heat that is then absorbed by the skin surface. Most of the traditional saunas that we see around today heat the body by convection and conduction. This is as a result of the heated air and the radiations coming from the heated surfaces within the sauna room.

There are many types of saunas that are presently in the market. The far infrared sauna is apparently the most sold out of such products according to recent market research. These are clinically tested saunas and they are mainly controlled by micron ranges. Anyone seeking to buy a far infrared sauna blanket in the UK would definitely settle for the portable one i.e. apparently quite common in the market today.
