MOST FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

We recommend daily but at least starting at 3 times per week.  We typically also recommend you start your session at 20 minutes, and work your way up to full 30-minute sessions (45 minutes for our Super Sweats).  Our staff will help you adjust to time and temperature settings with each visit if need be. 

We ensure the highest quality sanitization for our guests.  All pods, pod particles, and floor mats are sprayed with a medical grade disinfectant and cleansed, then left to dry.  A second cleaning is then performed with a skin-safe, natural disinfectant to “double disinfect” but also to ensure any harsh chemicals for the skin have been wicked away.  All towels are laundered on highest heat with special detergent for sanitization.  You can rest easy that our pods are squeaky clean!

It is recommended you enjoy the infrared sauna session in a swimsuit, undergarments, workout clothing, or even in the nude.  We find the less clothing the better the total body benefits and experience, but you are welcome to enjoy your session clothed to your comfortability.

We do NOT have a shower facility – for good reason and your best interest! Taking a shower immediately after your session shuts down the detox process prematurely, closing down your pores so they are unable to release more toxins.

Yes!  We even have a “double pod” room where you can enjoy a session along with a friend or loved one in a private suite.

It can be normal to feel a little “tired” after your first session.  Almost the feeling after a long massage or intense workout.  You will notice after acclimating to the sauna pod sessions this sensation will diminish with time.  The sleepy feeling doesn’t last though!  Sauna pod therapy is known to cause a significant endorphin and energy boost about 1 hour after your sessions.

We do accept walk-ins. However, we recommend that you book an appointment to ensure we have a pod available for you. Just because we take walk-ins doesn’t mean that we can always accommodate them.

For your first session we recommend arriving 5 to 10 minutes before your scheduled appointment so you can fill out a New Client Intake Form and learn more about your session from our Sweat Experts.

Infrared sauna sessions are typically 20 to 45 minutes in length.

Yes! You will be in the privacy of your own suite. We do offer double rooms where you can sweat with a friend or loved one in private.

We require a 2 hour notice to cancel appointments. If you do not cancel with at least 2 hours, you may be subject to a cancellation fee, charged to your payment method on file. 

Due to the face that the length of our sweat sessions are designed with your wellness in mind, we are often unable to accommodate late arrivals, as doing so would require us to shorten your session or that of the client after you. However, if you know that you will be late, please call us as soon as possible and we will do our best to try and accommodate you.

Yes we do! We even can pair them with a Botox Party with Southern Vanity Medical Spa! Call our office to find out more!
