From red light therapy to infrared sauna blankets and PEMF mats (even for pets), HigherDOSE offers tools that support your skin, health, and overall well-being over time.
WHY WE LOVE IT:
I love the idea of a sauna: detoxifying sweat, calmer mood, looser muscles, better sleep. I just don’t love the logistics—booking time, commuting, and turning recovery into a whole event. The HigherDOSE Infrared Sauna Blanket is the first at-home option I’ve tried that genuinely delivers the sauna experience in a way that feels both elevated and realistic.
It’s the kind of wellness tool that makes you understand why people swear by infrared—because you can feel the difference, not just read about it.
Tip: To maximize detoxification, pair the sauna blanket with the Heat Activated Endorphin Oil.
The science of infrared (in a way that actually makes sense)
Traditional saunas primarily heat the air around you, and your body warms up as a result. Infrared works differently: it uses infrared energy (a type of light energy) to create heat that’s experienced more directly by the body. In practical terms, it can feel like a deeper, more targeted warmth—less “I’m trapped in a hot room,” more “my body is warming through.”
That’s why infrared is often associated with:
- deep sweating (the “detox” feeling people chase)
- circulation support (heat encourages blood flow)
- muscle recovery (warmth helps tissues relax)
- nervous system downshifting (heat is inherently calming)
The blanket format makes that science usable. You’re not trying to fit sauna sessions into your schedule—you’re bringing them into your actual life.
What it feels like to use (my honest experience)
The first time I used it, I expected “warm and cozy.” What I got was a real sweat—fast.
Within minutes, my body temperature rose and I could feel that full-body warmth settling in. It’s the kind of heat that makes you exhale deeper and stop holding tension in your shoulders without even realizing you were doing it.
And because you’re lying down, it feels restorative rather than intense. You’re not “pushing through” a session—you’re letting your body do what it naturally does with heat: circulate, sweat, release.
The benefits of an at-home infrared sauna blanket
Here’s what stood out most to me—both in the moment and in how I felt afterward.
1) Detoxification through deep sweat
This is the headline benefit for most people, and yes: you sweat. A lot. That deep sweat is what gives you that post-session “clean” feeling—like your body let go of built-up heaviness.
I always shower afterward, and my skin looks clearer and feels smoother, like that post-workout glow… but more spa-coded.
2) Heart + circulation support (the “gentle cardio” effect)
One of the most interesting parts of sauna research and sauna culture is how often it’s discussed in the context of cardiovascular wellness. Heat exposure can elevate your heart rate and encourage circulation—so it can feel like a low-impact cardiovascular push without you doing a traditional workout.
During the session, I could feel my heart rate rise steadily. Afterward, I felt calm and loose—similar to the way you feel after a brisk walk and a stretch, combined.
3) Weight management + calorie burning
Let’s be clear: a sauna blanket isn’t a replacement for movement or nutrition. But it can support weight management routines because it creates a real heat response in the body:
- you sweat heavily (which feels like effort, even though you’re resting)
- your heart rate rises, which can increase energy expenditure
- lowers glucose levels -- in other words, "sugar" -- which helps with weight management
- it can help reduce stress and support sleep, which indirectly supports weight goals for many people
So yes, people talk about calorie burning with sauna use—and I understand why. It’s not a shortcut, but it is a powerful add-on that makes your routine feel more consistent and supported.
4) Muscle recovery + soreness relief
This ended up being one of my favorite benefits. The heat helped my muscles feel less tight—especially after workouts or long days sitting. It doesn’t replace stretching, but it makes stretching easier afterward because your body feels more open and pliable.
5) Nervous system reset
The biggest reason I keep reaching for it is how it makes me feel mentally. It’s hard to stay in “fight or flight” when you’re wrapped in warmth, sweating, and forced to lie still for 30–45 minutes.
It’s like meditation for people who don’t want to meditate.
Why the blanket format is the real game changer
The benefits of sauna are best when it's used consistently. Consistency is exactly what’s hard about going to a sauna studio.
With the HigherDOSE Infrared Sauna Blanket, it becomes an actual ritual you can do:
- after a workout
- on cold days when you feel stiff
- when you want a detox-style sweat
- when you want to wind down before bed
It turns sauna into something you can do on a random Tuesday—not just when you’re being your “best self.”
The Final Verdict
The HigherDOSE Infrared Sauna Blanket delivers the core sauna benefits—deep sweating for detoxification, circulation and heart support, muscle recovery and soreness relief, plus a real nervous-system downshift. But what makes it special is that it makes the science of infrared feel personal: you can actually feel your body responding in real time.
If you want sauna to be part of your life (not just part of your aspirations), this is the at-home tool that makes it doable.
