How often should you go to the sauna?

The short answer — the more, the better. But let’s dig into what science says.

What the studies show

A major Finnish sauna study tracked over 2,000 middle-aged men for 20+ years and found:

  • 2–3 sauna sessions per week reduced the risk of fatal heart disease by 27%

  • 4–7 sauna sessions per week slashed the risk by a massive 50%

  • Frequent sauna bathing was also linked to lower risk of stroke, dementia, and early death (aka, all-cause mortality)

So yeah, by the time you're doing 7 sauna sessions per week, you're practically invincible. But what’s actually realistic for most people?
