When it comes to enhancing your well-being and relaxation at home, a traditional sauna can be a game changer. Whether you’re looking to relieve stress, soothe sore muscles, or simply create a space for personal rejuvenation, a traditional sauna offers a multitude of benefits. We offer high-quality saunas designed to elevate your wellness routine. But with so many options, how do you choose the right one, and how do you make the most of your experience once it's installed?
In this blog, we’ll guide you through the process of selecting the perfect traditional steam sauna for your needs, and explain how to maximize your sauna experience once it's set up.
Choosing the Perfect traditional Sauna: What to Consider Before You Buy
Before you make your purchase, it's important to consider a few factors to ensure that you’re selecting the best traditional steam sauna for your needs. We offer a variety of steam saunas, each designed with unique features to enhance your wellness experience. Here’s what you need to think about:
1. Determine Your Space Requirements
Before choosing a sauna, assess the space where it will be installed. Our traditional saunas come in various sizes, so whether you have a small bathroom or a spacious home gym, you’ll find a model that fits your needs.
Room Size: Measure your space to ensure the sauna will fit comfortably.
Ventilation: Good ventilation is essential for steam sauna use. Ensure the space has proper airflow to maintain a fresh and comfortable environment inside.
2. Sauna Experience
At Samsora, we offer steam saunas, which provide a humid and soothing experience.
These are perfect for those who enjoy a more intense, sweat-inducing experience while also benefiting from the soothing effects of steam on the skin and respiratory system. The steam sauna uses a steam and humid heat mode, combined with infrared assistance and air purification (negative ion) technology, providing a more humid, comfortable, and sweat-inducing experience. The heat feels gentler and is more suitable for those who are not tolerant of high dry heat.

3. Think About the Additional Features
Our steam saunas come with a range of modern features designed to enhance your relaxation and wellness. Consider what features are important to you:
Red Light Therapy: Some of our models, like the Calm Indoor Steam Sauna, come with 660nm red light therapy to promote skin health, muscle recovery, and increased circulation.
Negative Ion Technology: Many of our saunas come with negative ion plates that purify the air, enhance oxygen absorption, and create a cleaner, more refreshing environment inside the sauna.
Sound & Lighting: We also offer Bluetooth audio systems and mood lighting for an immersive, stress-reducing experience.
Enjoying Your Sauna Experience
Once you’ve selected and purchased one of our steam saunas, the next step is to fully enjoy all the benefits it has to offer. Here’s how to make the most of your sauna experience and ensure you’re getting the maximum health benefits.

1. Installation and Setup
After purchasing your sauna, the installation process is typically quick and easy. Most of our saunas are designed for DIY installation and come with detailed instructions. If you are within 150 miles or a 2-hour drive of our California warehouse (2910 Rubidoux Blvd, Jurupa Valley, CA 92509), we offer faster direct delivery and the option for paid installation services.
Space Preparation: Before installation, clear the space and ensure the area is clean and free of obstructions. It’s important to also ensure proper ventilation to prevent humidity buildup and ensure a comfortable environment.
2. Create the Perfect Environment
Once your sauna is set up, it’s time to create a relaxing environment that will enhance your experience.
Set the Temperature: Start with a lower temperature and gradually increase it as you become accustomed to the heat. Our saunas come with easy-to-use digital controls that allow you to adjust the temperature to your liking.
Enjoy the Features: If your sauna has features like red light therapy, negative ion technology, or sound systems, be sure to use them! These added features can elevate your relaxation and help improve your physical recovery, skin health, and mental clarity.
Set the Mood: Consider adding a calming playlist or turning on the mood lighting to enhance your relaxation. The soothing lights and sounds will help you unwind and create a spa-like experience in your own home.
3. Sauna Etiquette for the Best Results
For the best results, use your sauna consistently and follow proper sauna etiquette:
The sauna is set to start at the default maximum temperature of 230°F (110°C).
Hydrate: Always drink plenty of water before and after your sauna session to stay hydrated.
Start Slow: If you’re new to saunas, begin with shorter sessions (10–15 minutes) and gradually work your way up to longer durations (20–30 minutes).
Use Towels: It’s best to sit on a towel to absorb excess sweat and keep the sauna clean.
Relax and Unwind: Close your eyes, relax, and let the heat work its magic. Saunas are perfect for meditative reflection, clearing your mind, and relieving stress.

4. Reaping the Benefits
Steam sauna therapy offers many health benefits, including:
Detoxification: Sweating helps remove toxins from your body and improve circulation.
Relaxation: Traditional steam saunas reduce muscle tension, alleviate stress, and promote overall relaxation.
Skin Health: The heat improves circulation to the skin, helping to clear pores and promote a healthy complexion.
Respiratory Health: The steam in our saunas can help clear your airways and improve breathing.
With regular use, you’ll notice a significant improvement in your overall health and well-being.
