At Mountain West Sport & Spine, our infrared sauna therapy is more than relaxation — it’s a clinically guided recovery service designed to support performance, healing, and total-body wellness.
Unlike traditional saunas that heat the air around you, infrared technology penetrates soft tissue directly. This allows for deeper therapeutic benefits at more comfortable temperatures, making it an effective and accessible recovery tool for a wide range of individuals.
Infrared heat works at a cellular level to promote circulation, reduce inflammation, and accelerate recovery — making it ideal for both active individuals and those focused on long-term wellness.

We offer convenient monthly packages, making it easy to prioritize consistent recovery as part of your wellness plan.
Infrared sauna therapy is part of our wellness services — allowing you to take control of your recovery outside of traditional insurance limitations.
Traditional saunas heat the air around you, which can feel intensely hot and humid. Infrared saunas use light wavelengths that penetrate soft tissue directly, allowing your body to heat from within. This creates a deeper therapeutic effect at lower, more comfortable temperatures.
Most sessions last between 20–40 minutes, depending on your comfort level and recovery goals. Our team can help guide session length based on whether you're focusing on recovery, relaxation, pain relief, or overall wellness.
Yes. Infrared sauna therapy is considered safe for most healthy individuals. Because our sauna services are clinically guided, we ensure sessions are appropriate for your needs. If you have medical conditions such as cardiovascular concerns, pregnancy, or heat sensitivity, we recommend consulting with your healthcare provider first.
For general wellness, 1–3 sessions per week is common. Athletes or individuals focused on recovery may benefit from more consistent use. That’s why we offer monthly packages, making it easy to integrate sauna therapy into your ongoing recovery routine.
Infrared sauna therapy is part of our cash-pay wellness services, meaning it is not billed to insurance. This allows us to offer flexible scheduling, combine services, and create customized recovery plans without insurance restrictions or visit limitations.
We’re here for our community — offering expert, compassionate care across the Treasure Valley and beyond.
