Saunas

[vegetus25]

I am thinking of building a sauna (or finding one on the cheap). I have been doing some research, but all I am finding is conflicting information on which is best and safe. There are the traditional saunas which are heated with electricity, wood, or gas. There seems to be little controversy over these. They are considered safe and effective, but expensive. The other option are infrared saunas. I have not been able to find any credible information on these. Lots of claims about which heat source is best and safe (far, near, or combo infrared heat). Do any of you have any knowledge and or experience with saunas? Do you have any recommendations on safety, good sources of info, etc.?

Thanks
