There is a type of therapy that saunas follow. It is known as thermotherapy. For thousands of years, the therapy has existed, wherein traditional saunas in Finland being the ones most studied until this present day.

In general, saunas are small chambers/rooms heated to a temperature between 65°C (150°F) and 90°C (195°F), often with unpainted, wooden interiors and with temperature controls. Rocks may also be included as part of the heating element as they absorb as well as release heat. When water is poured on these rocks, steam is created. The main purpose of a sauna is for relaxation, where individuals mellow out in the heat. Saunas come in several type based on the way the room is heated, including:

• WOOD. Wood is utilized to heat the sauna rocks and the room. Usually, this type of sauna has a low humidity and high temperature.
• ELECTRICITY. Like saunas that make use of wood-burning, saunas that are electrically heated have low humidity and high temperatures. The heater is attached to the floor which heats the room.
• INFRARED. Infrared saunas make use of special lamps that generates light waves to directly heat the body of the person, not the whole room as what wood-burning and electrically heated saunas do. Usually, while infrared saunas have lower temperatures (about 60°C) compared to other saunas, the person still perspires as they would in other types of saunas.
• STEAM. Rather than dry heat, steam or moist heat is used and where humidity in the room is high.
