Hi Carenity

I was wondering if anyone has tried an Infrared Sauna to treat their RA? I'm not too sure how red light could help my aching RA symptoms, but I would give it a go if it could help. Does anyone have any experience with it?

Hello @falcons200, how are you feeling today?

Thank you so much for starting this discussion.  As you may know already, infrared saunas use infrared radiation to heat the body directly, which can induce sweating and promote relaxation. However, it's crucial to discuss any potential complementary treatments with your rheumatologist or healthcare provider to ensure they align with your specific RA treatment plan.

I'll now invite some members of our community to share if they have tried infrared saunas or red light therapy before, and if they have helped their RA symptoms in any way:
