How infrared heat works
Infared Sauna at La Ritz uses infrared heat energy to warm the body directly rather than simply raising room air temperature. That direct warming increases skin surface temperature and produces a sustained, gentle heat sensation. Expect steady, dry warmth that you notice in deep tissues and at the surface without the heavy humid air of a traditional steam room.
Sessions are designed to be controlled and predictable: you will feel rising warmth, increased perspiration, and a steady internal heat over the course of the visit. The technique emphasizes comfortable exposure rather than extremes of temperature, so staff monitor duration and comfort. In Conyers' humid-subtropical climate, guests often pay attention to hydration before and after sessions for comfort and recovery.
What to expect in-session
A typical Infared Sauna visit begins with a short orientation on how the unit operates and where to sit or lie for best comfort. Expect to remain inside for the scheduled time while staff checks in as needed. Bring a towel or wear light clothing; you may want to cover sensitive areas. Phones and electronics are usually set aside to relax fully during the session.
La Ritz Spa's location near I-20 and Olde Town Conyers makes short, mid-day or after-work sessions practical for commuters from Atlanta and surrounding suburbs. Evening and weekend openings accommodate family schedules and visitors to nearby landmarks like the Georgia International Horse Park or Panola Mountain. A single session lasts 35 minutes and is priced at $35, making brief restorative visits easy to fit into a routine.
Choosing session frequency and timing
Deciding how often to schedule Infared Sauna sessions depends on personal goals and comfort: some clients prefer occasional single sessions, while others book repeats to support a relaxation routine. There is no universal schedule; choose frequency based on how you feel after a session and how it fits your commute or weekend plans. If you have medical concerns, consult your healthcare provider before beginning regular sessions.
Practical timing also takes local life into account. Many clients opt for sessions before or after commutes on I-20, or book evening slots after family activities. Remember the session parameters—35 minutes and $35—when planning multiple visits in a week, and allow time to hydrate and cool down afterward for the most comfortable follow-up.
