What Is an Infrared Sauna Pod?

An infrared sauna uses infrared panels to warm your body directly instead of relying only on extremely hot surrounding air. In the sēk Solo Pod, your body rests inside the pod while your head remains comfortably outside.

  • Direct warmth: infrared panels warm the body instead of only heating the surrounding air.
  • Private room: change and enjoy the entire session in your own space.
  • Adjustable heat: we set the temperature based on your comfort and can adjust it during the session.
  • Supports: circulation, muscle recovery, better sleep, and relaxation.
  • Sunlighten equipment: our pods are Sunlighten infrared, the same brand used in our Infrared Sauna Cabin.

Infrared Sauna Pod FAQs

Head out, body in. Pick a chromotherapy color or let it cycle.

How is an infrared sauna different from a traditional sauna or steam room?

Traditional saunas and steam rooms primarily heat the surrounding air. Infrared panels warm the body directly, allowing the room air to feel less intense. In the sēk Infrared Sauna Pod, your body is inside the pod while your head remains outside. If you enjoy pairing heat with cold, many guests follow the pod with a cold plunge for contrast therapy.

How long is an Infrared Sauna Pod session?

An Infrared Sauna Pod session lasts 30 minutes. If you prefer to sit upright or bring someone with you, our Infrared Sauna Cabin sessions last 40 minutes and can accommodate up to three guests.

How hot does the pod get?

The temperature is adjustable. A sēk specialist will set the starting temperature based on your comfort and can adjust it during your session. The pod can reach temperatures of up to 150°F, although many guests prefer a lower starting temperature.

What should I wear?

Because you’ll be in your own private room, we recommend wearing nothing at all during your session.

Infrared heat works by warming your body directly, so exposing more of your skin allows the infrared heat to reach your body without clothing getting in the way.

A robe and towel are provided, and you’re always welcome to wear whatever makes you feel most comfortable.

What can I do during the session?

Many guests watch a show or video using the phone holder positioned directly above their head and their own headphones. Others listen to music, close their eyes, or enjoy the session without a screen.

What if I do not tolerate heat well?

Tell your sēk specialist before the session. We can begin at a lower temperature and adjust it during the session if needed. You may also raise the pod lid, sit up, or end the session at any time.

Can I use the pod if I am claustrophobic?

Your head remains outside the pod, and you can raise the lid or sit up at any time. A call button is available if you would like assistance. Individual comfort levels vary, so please tell your sēk specialist about any concern before the session begins.

How often can I use infrared sauna?

Up to once a day. Several sessions in your first week is a common way to find your rhythm. Stay hydrated, and speak with a healthcare professional if you have a health concern or are unsure whether repeated heat exposure is appropriate for you.

Before You Book

Infrared sauna may not be appropriate for everyone. Speak with a healthcare professional before use if you have a cardiovascular condition or heart-rhythm concern, use an implanted medical device, are recovering from surgery, have an open wound, or have another health condition that may be affected by heat exposure.

Stop the session and seek assistance if you feel dizzy, faint, unwell, or unable to tolerate the heat.
