To maximize the benefits, you should hydrate before and after your session, but avoid drinking water while inside the sauna to stimulate the production of red blood cells.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/7f1bbab8-945e-41f2-bd9d-04d81eaa7349) - [Video: This video explains why you shouldn't drink water while inside the sauna. A slight level of dehydration actually stimulates the release of a hormone called EPO, which boosts blood plasma volume and improves circulation to your muscles.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/3bcd77eb-111c-472d-b09b-ae4ed4d54444) ## About Pro-Tips for Your Sauna Session Here is one simple rule that changes your results: stop sipping water while inside the sauna. It sounds counterintuitive, but a slight level of dehydration is exactly what triggers the release of a hormone called erythropoietin (EPO). This stimulates red blood cell production, leading to better blood plasma volume and improved circulation to your muscles. Hydrate well before and after your session, but keep that water bottle outside while you work on your specific health goals. ### Our Sauna Protocols At Salt World in HSR Layout, we do not believe in 'one size fits all' heat exposure. Our Far Infrared sauna cabins allow you to control the environment (45°C to 60°C) to target different physiological outcomes. These are the methods we use: **1. The Growth Hormone Protocol** Designed for recovery and hormonal health, this involves four 30-minute rounds in the sauna with cool-down breaks in between. It is a more intense method, but it can significantly boost HGH levels compared to a single, continuous session. **2. The Endurance Method** If you want to build mental and heat tolerance, try 20 minutes at a higher temperature (up to 65°C). Adding light stretching or movement within the cabin helps mimic the conditions your body faces during intense physical activity, building long-term resilience. **3. The Sleep & Recovery Method** This is about lowering cortisol and calming the nervous system. We recommend a 20 to 30-minute session at a lower temperature (40°C to 45°C) about two hours before you plan to sleep. Finish with a warm shower to maintain that relaxed state as you wind down for the night. **Why Far Infrared?** Unlike traditional steam rooms that heat the air around you, our infrared panels warm your body directly. This means you do not have to deal with suffocating humidity or the heavy, sticky feeling of a steam box. You can stay in longer, breathe easier, and penetrate deeper into muscle tissue to flush out inflammation. **Contrast Therapy** If you are feeling brave, pair your sauna session with our ice plunge. Moving from the 60°C heat of the sauna into our 10°C ice tub creates a vascular pumping effect that is unmatched for rapid muscle recovery and a mental reset. If you are new to this, just let me know. I will guide you through the timing and breathwork to make sure you stay safe and get the most out of the experience. ## About Salt World I started Salt World because I was tired of generic wellness spaces that didn't deliver.
