What features should I look for when shopping for sauna kits?
You have to decide which type of sauna you are interested in purchasing. There is the traditional steam sauna, and infrared. Infrared is said to have better penetration and detox capabilities. You will also need to determine what room the sauna will be placed, because the steam sauna will emit more moisture into the environment. So, I would inquire about moisture barriers and the type of material a steam sauna is constructed for future maintenance. Steam saunas are more of a permanent structure, while infrared are more portable . Lastly, I would inquire about the amount of power required to operate you sauna, as well as service and warranties to protect your investment.

Instead of using steam like in traditional saunas an infrared sauna uses infrared heaters. Both are just as hot, but some claim more health benefits from infrared.
Should you sauna with congestion sore throat cough?
Oh goodness me, YES. This adds moisture to the lungs and the heat helps break up the congestion that your body is trying to expel by coughing. Make sure not to get the steam too hot or you can do more damage than good.
What chamber of the heat is more relaxed?
The sauna typically offers a more relaxed experience compared to a steam room. Saunas use dry heat, while steam rooms use moist heat, which some people find more intense. The lower humidity and higher temperatures in a sauna can help promote relaxation and a sense of well-being.
Can a sauna bath burn fat?
Yes, but almost all of the weight you are losing is water as you get dehydrated. Once you leave the sauna and have a drink of water, the weight will be back. You also lose weight as the sauna causes your body to sweat which requires energy and therefore increases caloric expenditure. In a 30-40min session you can burn up to 500-1000 calories

Are saunas linked to weight loss?
Sitting in a sauna causes you to sweat, so yes, you will lose some water weight, but not much, and the moment you drink fluid again, you will gain it right back. Steam, such as you find in a sauna is really more beneficial to your skin as it helps open the pores and causes you to sweat which is one way your body can rid itself of toxins. It may also, at least temporarily, give you a bit of healthy color in your face and cause your skin to feel a bit softer. There is nothing miraculous about saunas though, and no, you will not lose actual weight by using them.
How do you burn more calories in the sauna?
Interval training. Don't just slog along at a set pace, vary it. Sprint flat out to the next signpost/intersection etc, slow down just enough to recover, then sprint again.
Can too much fat make you not sweat?
No, you still sweat, more than you would sweat if you were in better shape
What is the difference between sanarium and sauna?
A Sanarium uses a lower heat than a Sauna, usually between 30 and 40 degrees and also uses humidity, around 50 percent (almost like a hot sunny day in the med). It's like a cross between a sauna and a steam room. As it's not as punishing as a sauna, it can be used for longer periods and is more effective for a warm down after a workout and is also better for the skin.
