Infrared Sauna Shootout: Therasauna vs Healthmate - a video we found online expressing one person's opinion!

It seems the takeaway from this video of why this pharmacist switched from Healthmate to Therasauna is that he was impressed by the ceramic emitters vs. the metal rod emitters.

Further, he prefers the white aspen wood to the cedar to avoid the terpines in the cedar wood.

This customer has enjoyed Therasauna for over 6 years and uses it to get that warm feeling in his system and for detox. He maintains that his sniffles are cured after a few days of sauna use.

The infrared sauna by Therasauna is part of his healthy living regiment.
