The infrared sauna is hot

infrared sauna

Our great-grandfather used to head off to the sauna every time he needed to relax, and insisted it was a key to his longevity ("going for a schvitz," he called it). We've never been too keen on this idea, since our idea of a good time usually doesn't include hanging out in a stifling, hot, claustrophobic box with a bunch of naked, overweight old men (no offense, gramps). But the idea of a sauna as a cure-all does have some appeal, especially this time of year. The answer: the compact infrared "sauna tunnel," or even smaller sauna bag, from Korea's Eunsung Engineering. Yeah, the tunnel looks more like a tanning bed, and we suspect that the bag is nothing more than a souped-up electric blanket, but we're willing to give these a try, if we can figure out where to buy them.
