A member asked:
What is the max temperature my body should reach when using infrared sauna for detoxification? (worried about overheating)
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not a problem: Far infra ed saun works well even if the temperature is not above 100 degrees so there is little reason to worry about overheating if you stay in for 30 to 60 minutes and drink a lot of water when in the sauna and take extra electrolytes.
