Everyone loves to unwind. And some find their best relaxation in a sauna. For them, the question isn't "should I get a sauna?" It's "do I want an outdoor sauna, or should I get an indoor sauna?"

You can find good reasons to get either type of sauna. But rather than pit them against each other, this article will focus on why you should get an indoor sauna.

WHY YOU SHOULD GET AN INDOOR SAUNA

Your choice comes down to which kind of sauna will benefit you most. Here are 6 reasons to give you perspective and (hopefully) help you choose.

1. HEALTH AND RELAXATION

We'll start with relaxation because it's one of the obvious benefits of saunas in general. Being in your house makes your sauna more accessible to the whole family. It can become part of your healthy lifestyle routine without requiring a trip out the back door. 

2. REDUCED COST

An outdoor sauna must be weatherproof, and it may require a foundation. All in all, an indoor, infrared sauna is generally cheaper than an outdoor sauna. It won't need painting or a foundation. And resisting the elements isn't part of the indoor sauna's job description.

3. MANY OPTIONS

Two person or four person sauna? Corner or square? What kind of wood do you want? You've got options. And one of the best things about indoor saunas is the number of selections you can choose from.

4. FRESH START

When you place a sauna inside your home, you have an opportunity to create a space for relaxation and meeting health goals. Maybe you want to dedicate one of your rooms to exercise equipment. Maybe you want to install a spa-like bathroom. Whether you make any changes is up to you – but here's your chance!

5. PLEASANT AROMA

The wood used to build indoor saunas can add a beautiful woodsy scent to your home. Of all the benefits, this may be the one that will fade into the background – but you'll always appreciate it.

6. EASY INSTALLATION

Here's the biggest selling point of an indoor sauna. The average homeowner can install their new infrared sauna in less than an hour. Indoor saunas come as prefabricated kits. You won't need any specialized tools, plumbing, or electrical work. Easy peasy. Plug it in, and get ready for relaxation.
