The Right Way to Sauna at Home: A Complete Beginner’s Guide

Saunas are more than just a luxury—they’re a tool for better recovery, improved sleep, and overall health. Whether you’re using an infrared sauna tent or planning to pair it with a cold plunge tub, doing it right makes all the difference. OHO brings you a step-by-step approach to sauna safely and effectively at home.

1. Why Saunas Work: Heat Therapy Benefits
Sauna use helps:

Boost circulation by widening blood vessels

Ease sore muscles after exercise

Encourage natural detox through sweating

Calm the nervous system, supporting better sleep

Combined with cold immersion, it also trains your body to adapt and recover faster.

2. What to Do Before You Start
Preparation matters:

Hydrate well: Drink water at least 30 minutes before entering

Clean skin: A quick rinse helps open pores

Preheat your OHO sauna tent: Aim for 60–75°C depending on preference

3. Step-by-Step Sauna Routine
Step 1: Heat Session (10–15 minutes)
Sit comfortably inside the sauna tent. Breathe deeply, relax, and monitor how your body feels.

Step 2: Cold Plunge (30 seconds–2 minutes)
Jump into a cold tub or take a cold shower. OHO’s portable cold plunge tubs are ideal for quick recovery and space-saving use.

Step 3: Repeat if desired
Alternate heat and cold for 2–3 cycles to enhance blood flow, muscle recovery, and mental clarity.

Step 4: Rest & Rehydrate
After your session, take 10–15 minutes to relax. Replenish with water or an electrolyte drink.

4. Important Safety Notes
Don’t sauna on an empty stomach or right after a big meal

Start slow if you’re new—shorter sessions are okay

Consult your doctor if you have heart or blood pressure conditions

Never bring electronics into the sauna tent
