How to Take a Sauna
1. Warm up the sauna.
After switching your IYASHI sauna on, depending on the ambient temperature allow at least 10 minutes for the sauna to heat up. You will want to start your sauna session when it reaches about 35 – 40 degrees. If you are a beginner, and particularly if you are not in great health, you’ll want to start with shorter cooler sauna sessions, perhaps no more than 10 – 15 minutes starting at 35 - 40 degrees. This way you’ll give yourself a chance to get used to the heat.
The infrared-emitting heaters will be on continuously until the heat gets up to the temperature you set.
2. Towels
Place a large towel over the sauna bench seat, two layers if possible. Your body will be sending out toxins, including heavy metals, with your sweat, and you won’t want your sauna bench or floor to absorb these. This will keep the bench clean & hygienic. You will also need an additional towel to wipe away the toxins off your body as you sweat. You might also want to place a small towel under your feet once you really start sweating but not before as you want some of the infrared heat to penetrate your feet.
3. If possible, take your sauna in the nude!
If you can’t, then wear the absolute minimum of clothes that you can – not more than a bathing suit! You need to be able to wipe away those toxins as you sweat during the sauna. It will be difficult if you are wearing clothes.
4. Drink, Drink, Drink Water!
This is very important so as to avoid dehydration. Have a glass of water before you enter the sauna and take plenty of water into the sauna with you, too. The last thing you want to do is exit the sauna halfway through your session to replenish your water supply.
Other good drinks to take into the sauna with you would be a sports electrolyte replacement drink. NB: Avoid the sauna entirely if you have been drinking alcohol
5. Relax, listen to music, read a book
This is your time and it’s a time to relax. Enjoy some colour light therapy or simply turn on the reading light or listen to your favourite music on the premium sound system.
6. When to Stop
It’s NOT that the longer and hotter sauna the better. The temperature and the length of the sauna session you can tolerate can vary depending on your condition on the day; so listen to your body. Turn down the temperature when you feel too hot and exit the sauna when you feel you have had enough. You don’t need to “persevere” until you reach a certain temperature or time!

What You Can Expect To Happen In the Sauna
Don’t expect to sweat right away when you enter the sauna. For someone who has just started having a sauna, it can take a while to start sweating noticeably.
As you use the sauna more regularly, you’ll notice that you sweat more quickly and profusely. At some point, if you persist, you’ll likely become a champion sweater. The more you sweat, the more you have to drink to make up for the loss.
Some people don’t sweat in the sauna initially.
If you’re new to the sauna, you might find you don’t sweat at all the first few times, or even the first several times! That may sound strange, but some people have suppressed sweating mechanisms due to past pesticide exposure or other toxic exposures.
If that’s the case for you, take things slowly, realizing that you won’t be able to tolerate the sauna as long or get the same benefits from it without sweating. As you keep at it, the problem should correct itself and your ability to sweat will return.
Also remember that you have to be well hydrated to get a good sweat going. If you’re not sweating as well as usual in the sauna, try drinking some more water.
