🌿 Hi everyone, thought you might be interested in a little bit of information on the difference between Far-Infrared Sauna and Traditional Finnish Sauna (Dry heat from a heater with hot stones. Usually around 70–100°C with relatively low humidity. You can pour a small amount of water over the stones to create a burst of steam called löyly, but the room remains much drier than a steam room. )
But also do your own research and find out if this is for you 🌿

INFRARED SAUNA & CORE BODY TEMPERATURE 🌿
What’s the difference between infrared and traditional sauna?

There’s been a lot of discussion lately about whether an infrared sauna actually raises your core body temperature — so I thought I’d share some information because the answer is a little more interesting than simply “yes” or “no.”

🔥 Traditional Finnish Sauna

A traditional sauna generally heats the surrounding air to very high temperatures, often around 80–100°C.

The intense environmental heat makes it harder for your body to release heat. Your blood flow to the skin increases, you sweat, and your core body temperature rises.

Most of the long-term research into sauna use has been conducted using this traditional type of sauna.

🌿 Infrared Sauna

An infrared sauna works differently.

Rather than simply heating the air around you, infrared panels emit radiant energy, which is absorbed by the body, particularly in the skin and superficial tissues.

Because the surrounding air can be much cooler, an infrared sauna can feel considerably more comfortable while still producing:

✨ Warmth
✨ Sweating
✨ Increased circulation
✨ An elevated heart rate
✨ A whole-body heat response

And importantly…

Infrared sauna CAN raise core body temperature.

It doesn’t mean that infrared energy travels directly into your organs and heats them from the inside. Rather, the absorbed heat warms the body and, when the heat exposure is sufficient, your overall body temperature — including core temperature — can rise.

🔬 What does the research show?

This is where things get really interesting.

Research comparing traditional and far-infrared sauna has found that the increase in core temperature can vary considerably depending on the temperature, length of the session and type of sauna.

One recent study found that a 45-minute far-infrared sauna session produced a smaller core-temperature response than a traditional sauna protocol.

However, another 2026 study using a far-infrared sauna at 65°C for 45 minutes found a 1.4°C increase in re**al temperature in 12 healthy adults, including six women.

So it would be incorrect to say:

❌ “Infrared sauna doesn’t heat your core.”

A more accurate statement is:

🌿 Infrared sauna can raise core body temperature, but the degree of heating depends on the heat exposure and individual response.

So, is traditional sauna better?

There isn’t enough evidence to say that traditional sauna is universally better for women than infrared sauna.

Traditional Finnish sauna has a larger and more established research base, while infrared studies use a variety of temperatures, devices and protocols.

The body’s response depends on the actual heat exposure, rather than simply whether the sauna is labelled “traditional” or “infrared.”

🤎 At Mind, Body & Soul Kialla

Our infrared sauna is designed to provide a comfortable form of passive heat exposure — allowing you to relax, warm up, sweat and enjoy the experience without the extreme ambient temperatures of a traditional Finnish sauna.

And sometimes wellness isn’t about pushing your body to its limits…

It’s about giving yourself permission to slow down, breathe and simply take some time for yourself. 🌿

Please remember that sauna isn’t suitable for everyone. Stay hydrated, avoid alcohol before or during sauna use, follow medical advice where relevant, and stop your session if you feel dizzy, faint, nauseated or unwell.

This information is educational and does not diagnose, treat or prevent a medical condition. Evidence regarding infrared sauna, particularly in women, is still developing.

Have a Wonderful Weekend
💜🌟💜

✨ Recovery isn’t just for athletes… it’s for every woman who gives so much of herself. ✨

Whether you’ve spent the day on your feet, enjoyed a workout, travelled, sat at a desk for hours, or you’re simply looking for a way to support your body’s natural recovery, compression boot therapy can be a wonderful addition to your wellness routine.

💛 How often should you use them?
Most women benefit from a relaxing 15–30 minute session, and for most healthy people, regular—even daily—use is considered safe.

🌿 What are the benefits?
• Supports healthy circulation
• Helps reduce feelings of tired, heavy legs
• May ease muscle soreness and stiffness
• Encourages faster recovery after physical activity
• Provides a deeply relaxing experience that helps you feel refreshed

Compression boots aren’t a replacement for movement, stretching, good nutrition or quality sleep—they work best alongside a healthy lifestyle to support your body’s natural healing and recovery.

⚠️ Please note: Compression boots aren’t suitable for everyone. If you have untreated deep vein thrombosis (DVT), severe vascular disease, significant nerve damage, or certain medical conditions, please seek advice from your healthcare provider before booking a session.

At Mind Body & Soul Kialla, our goal is simple—to help women feel lighter, recover better, and take time to care for themselves. Because looking after your wellbeing isn’t a luxury… it’s an investment in yourself.

🌸 Give your body the opportunity to rest, restore and recover—you deserve it.

🌿 REIKI & RESTORE JOURNEY 🌿

Sometimes we don’t need to do more… we simply need to pause, receive, and allow ourselves the space to reconnect.

At Mind Body & Soul Kialla, I offer a Reiki & Restore Journey consisting of 3 sessions within 7 days, combining the gentle practice of Reiki with the restorative benefits of Red Light Therapy.

✨ Session One – Open & Balance

The first session focuses on encouraging energetic balance, relaxation, and creating space for greater awareness and connection.

✨ Session Two – Release & Restore

The second session supports the gentle release of tension, stress, and energetic stagnation while encouraging deeper relaxation and restoration.

✨ Session Three – Integrate & Renew

The final session allows time for the body, mind, and energy system to integrate the experience, promoting a sense of harmony, clarity, and wellbeing.

Each session includes:

🌿 Reiki
🌿 Red Light Therapy
🌿 A peaceful, nurturing environment
🌿 Time to rest, receive, and reconnect

Following your three sessions, many Reiki practitioners speak of a 21-Day Integration Period, where the body, mind, emotions, and energy system continue to process and integrate the experience.

Many clients report feeling calmer, more grounded, deeply relaxed, and more connected to themselves after completing their Reiki & Restore Journey.
