compared to those who used a sauna only once per week.

These are not small differences—they suggest that frequency matters, and heat exposure may play a protective role in brain health over time.

While the exact mechanisms are still being studied, researchers believe sauna use may support brain health through:

Sauna isn’t just recovery.
