saunas
Traditional vs Infared
Traditional and infrared saunas offer unique experiences and benefits depending on your preferences. Traditional Finnish saunas use high heat and steam (150–195°F) to warm the air and body, promoting deep relaxation, better circulation, and muscle recovery. Infrared saunas, on the other hand, use radiant heat at lower temperatures (120–150°F) to directly warm the body, creating a gentler, less humid environment. They’re praised for deeper heat penetration, faster warm-up times, and energy efficiency, though some may miss the traditional sauna’s immersive ambiance. Both provide excellent wellness benefits — it simply depends on the experience you prefer.
Benefits of Saunas
Access to a sauna has positively impacted a person's health, wellness, and overall athletic performance. As well as relaxation, a sauna can also provide several health benefits. A sauna's heat can help improve circulation and increase blood flow to the skin. Saunas have also been shown to be effective at detoxification. The heat can help to increase sweat, which can help flush toxins from the body.
You may also see improved skin health, as the heat and humidity of a sauna can help to improve the appearance and health of the skin, which may be especially beneficial for people with dry or sensitive skin.
Pre cut vs pre fab
Precut saunas, often referred to as custom-cut saunas, are tailored to fit your specific space with precision-cut boards, benches, and doors—requiring minimal on-site cutting. They offer top-quality materials, save time and money by eliminating the need to source parts separately, and can be customized for nearly any location. Once installed, they become a permanent part of the home, adding long-term value. Prefab saunas, on the other hand, are modular and freestanding, with pre-built sections assembled onsite—ideal for spaces where additional construction isn’t required. They offer the same high-quality materials and workmanship, are easy to install without a contractor, and feature simple built-in electrical conduits. Prefab saunas are also portable, allowing for setup and takedown as needed. Finlandia’s locking system ensures the sturdiest installation on the market—suitable even for commercial or military use. For outdoor installations, Finlandia’s roof kit provides unmatched strength and includes framing, insulation, and both interior and exterior materials.
