Across Europe, wellness is becoming a way of life rather than a luxury. More individuals are investing in holistic routines that support both physical and mental well-being—without needing to leave home. What is among the most sought-after tools for this self-care movement? The infrared sauna.
But with their growing popularity, one key question remains: Are home infrared saunas really worth it? According to The Times, the answer is increasingly clear—and Clearlight® is leading the charge.
Clearlight® Infrared Saunas featured in The Times
The benefits of home sauna therapy made waves in a recent Times feature, where leading wellness brands were spotlighted for their role in the modern home retreat. Among the highlights was Clearlight®, recognised for its technology-forward, design-conscious approach to sauna therapy.

If you're considering upgrading your wellness routine, this article will guide you through the everyday benefits of infrared heat, the long-term rewards of owning a Clearlight® infrared cabin, and what to consider before installing one in your own home.
Why are more people turning to infrared saunas at home?
The advantages of having a personal infrared sauna go far beyond trends. It’s about creating an environment where relaxation, recovery, and daily wellness naturally fit into your schedule. Here’s why so many wellness-conscious households in Europe are choosing infrared heat.
-
Support for everyday recovery and calm
Whether it's post-exercise muscle soreness or the need to mentally unwind after a long day, the deep-penetrating warmth of infrared heat delivers comfort like no other. Unlike traditional saunas that warm the surrounding air, infrared heat works directly on the body, encouraging a soothing, grounded experience with every session.
-
A ritual you can stick with
Infrared saunas give you full control over your wellness time—morning or evening, short or long. There’s no need to commute to a spa or wait for a slot at your gym. With an at-home cabin, you sauna when it suits you best—and the consistency is what brings real benefit.
-
A long-term wellness upgrade
Instead of booking ongoing spa sessions, investing in a Clearlight® Infrared Sauna offers a durable, efficient solution that’s built to last. With low energy consumption, user-friendly technology, and minimal maintenance, it’s a smart wellness decision that continues to deliver year after year.
Key considerations when choosing your infrared sauna
Choosing the right infrared sauna means ensuring you enjoy the full spectrum of wellness benefits your space, routine, and lifestyle can support. A well-chosen cabin not only integrates beautifully into your home, but also encourages regular use—turning your wellness plans into a lasting habit.
-
Size & space
Start with your setting. Think about where your sauna will go.
-
Will it be placed indoors or outdoors?
-
Is there enough space for ventilation and movement?
-
How many people will use it at the same time?
Clearlight® provides flexible sizing options, from compact one-person models to spacious five-person cabins—so you’re sure to find a fit that works for your home.
-
Installation
Comfort starts with setup. A few technical requirements make all the difference.
-
Your sauna should be set on a stable, flat surface.
-
Leave 5 cm space around the unit, and at least 30 cm above the roof for air circulation.
-
Outdoor saunas require attention to roof overhangs and protection from the elements.
Clearlight® offers both DIY-friendly kits and a professional installation service, so you can choose the best path to your personal retreat.
-
Power supply
The power supply should be simple and efficient. No complicated electrical work is needed. Clearlight® saunas run on a standard power connection.
-
Energy usage ranges from 1,750W to 3,800W, depending on model size.
-
Heating technology
Heating technology is what makes the difference. Infrared comfort is all about the type and quality of heaters.
-
Ceramic heaters heat quickly but can result in uneven warmth.
-
Carbon heaters are gentler and more consistent.
-
Clearlight®'s patented True Wave® hybrid system combines both, ensuring fast, balanced heat—ideal for deeper relaxation and soothing warmth.
-
Materials & design
Crafted from sustainable, eco-certified wood like Canadian red cedar, Okoume, and hypoallergenic hemlock, Clearlight® cabins are designed with comfort and purity in mind. The materials are carefully selected for durability, aesthetics, and a naturally relaxing atmosphere, creating a peaceful space you’ll look forward to entering each day.
Are infrared saunas worth it? The final word
When wellness, recovery and personal time matter, owning a Clearlight® Infrared Sauna is more than worth it—it’s a daily act of care. These are more than wellness tools. They’re thoughtfully designed environments for restoration, clarity, and quality time—alone or with loved ones.
And as The Times feature made clear, Clearlight® isn’t just another sauna brand—it’s shaping the future of at-home wellbeing with smart features, beautiful materials and a track record trusted by global icons and health-conscious families alike.
So, when you bring a Clearlight® into your home, you’re not just making a purchase. You’re investing in a wellness experience backed by design, innovation, and international recognition.
