Infrared Sauna FAQs
Do I need to bring anything?
Short answer is no! Everything you need is supplied already, including towels and water. You will have access to music, podcasts, a meditation app and the local library app through the sauna phone setup. You are welcome to bring your own towel, water bottle (not metal) or books in with you. If you want to make use of the shower, bring your own toiletries and towel with you.
Can I use my private health care?

What should I wear?
It is up to you what you wear in the sauna. There are fresh towels placed in the sauna for each appointment, so if you feel like going in the nude, it is sanitary to do so. Otherwise, there are body towels provided, you can wear underwear (be mindful of the metal underwire in bras, it can get hot) or loose fitting lightweight clothing.
