Saunas have been part of wellness traditions for centuries, and Phillip Wilson has spent years making the case for a particular take on the idea. On the Digital Social Hour with Sean Kelly, Wilson introduces the far-infrared technology behind the Relax Sauna, the company he founded, and explains the thinking he says sets his portable units apart from larger conventional saunas.
The conversation covers the claims Wilson and his company make about their product, including references to a study he attributes to a Harvard and MIT lab, an optimal micron frequency range, deeper penetration, and lower EMF. These are the company's and his own assertions rather than independently established medical fact, and the episode is best understood as Wilson presenting his perspective on infrared wellness and where he believes the technology is heading.
