For your first sauna visit in Harrisburg, bring a swimsuit, towel, and water bottle. Most facilities provide flip flops, but bringing your own is recommended. Before entering the sauna, take a quick shower to remove oils and lotions. Once inside, start with 10-15 minute sessions for beginners, gradually increasing duration as you build tolerance. Stay hydrated by sipping water throughout your session. Keep conversations quiet to maintain the relaxing atmosphere. If the facility offers contrast therapy, alternate between 10-15 minutes in the sauna and 2-3 minutes in the cold plunge. This contrast therapy enhances circulation, reduces inflammation, and promotes recovery. Always listen to your body and exit if you feel dizzy or uncomfortable.
