These trendy blankets engulf the body in warmth using infrared frequencies which may give skin cells a regenerative treatment similar to actual saunas.

While using these comforting products, users should take note of some health warnings. It is imperative to stay cautious of overheating. In order to closely monitor the change in temperature, many sauna blankets come with remotes that allow for adjustable temperatures. Users who are pregnant, have cardiovascular issues, have certain skin disorders, or take medication that affect body temperature regulation should not use these blankets. Due to the risks, which come with saunas similarly, users should consult with doctors before using a sauna blanket. Like any hot environment, it is necessary to hydrate before and after use of these products.

For those that enjoy the benefits and relaxation of a sauna, these new high-tech blankets claim to bring the sauna to you. Users wrap themselves within double-sided blankets and remotely increase the temperature in order to cause sweating.
