The science-backed benefits of sauna for women!

Sauna is having a wellness moment—but does it actually improve health for women? In this episode, we cut through the biohacking noise and focus on the physiology, research, and foundations that matter most. We break down traditional vs infrared vs steam saunas, explain how heat affects women differently than men, and explore benefits for hormones, glucose regulation, PCOS, recovery, cardiovascular health, stress, sleep, and menopause. This is a science-first, hype-free look at sauna as a supportive—not essential—tool.
