far-infrared sauna sessions associated with reduced pain and stiffness in rheumatoid arthritis
Over a 4-week course of eight infrared sauna sessions, RA patients showed clinically relevant improvements in pain and stiffness (5–10 points on VAS) compared to the pretreatment non-treatment period, though these did not reach statistical significance.
What this means for you
Stiffness and discomfort in joints are two of the most common things people want relief from as they age. This finding showed a 5–10 point drop in self-reported pain and stiffness scores over eight far-infrared sessions — a meaningful shift in day-to-day comfort, even if modest in scale.
