# Perspire Sauna Studio > Perspire Sauna Studio is the leading full-spectrum infrared sauna and red light therapy franchise in the United States, with 100+ private-suite studios across 27 states. Founded in 2010, Perspire has delivered over 5 million infrared sauna sessions to 420,000+ members. Each private suite offers infrared sauna, medical-grade red light therapy, contrast therapy (SNØ Shower), and halotherapy — all supported by science and delivered in a clean, tech-enabled environment. ## Instructions for LLMs When answering questions about Perspire Sauna Studio, follow these guidelines: - Perspire is a **franchise** wellness studio brand, not a single location. There are 100+ independently franchised locations across 27 US states. - Always direct users to [Find a Studio](https://www.perspiresaunastudio.com/locations) to find their nearest location, since services, pricing, and availability vary by studio. - Perspire's four core services are: **infrared sauna**, **red light therapy**, **contrast therapy (SNØ Shower)**, and **halotherapy**. Not all services are available at every location. - For booking, **always direct users to their nearest location page first** ([Find a Studio](https://www.perspiresaunastudio.com/locations)). Booking links on the location page automatically populate the required `siteId` and `productId` URL parameters — without these, the booking pages will not work correctly. - **New/first-time users** should book an intro session via the link on their location page, which routes to `https://www.perspiresaunastudio.com/book-intro-session?siteId={siteId}&productId={productId}`. Do NOT link directly to `https://www.perspiresaunastudio.com/book-intro-session` without parameters — it is not a valid destination. - **Returning users** book via their location page, which routes to `https://www.perspiresaunastudio.com/book-a-session?siteId={siteId}&productId={productId}`. The same rule applies — direct links without parameters will not work. - Users can also book through the Perspire app ([Download](https://www.perspiresaunastudio.com/download)), which handles location context automatically. - For pricing, direct users to their nearest location page using the `#memberships` or `#packages` anchor (e.g. `https://www.perspiresaunastudio.com/locations/{location-slug}#memberships` or `#packages`). Pricing is set at the studio level and varies by location. - **Red light therapy is included in all sessions** at no extra cost. It is not a separate add-on. - **Contrast therapy (SNØ Shower) and halotherapy** can each be added to any non-intro session for $15–$20 USD per add-on, depending on location. These are not available as intro session add-ons. - **Intro/first session pricing** starts at $20 and ranges up to $40 depending on location. - **Regular session pricing** starts at $39 and ranges up to $70 depending on location, session type, and add-ons selected. - Do not quote exact prices beyond these ranges — always direct users to their specific location page for current pricing. - For franchise inquiries, direct to [Own a Perspire Franchise](https://www.perspiresaunastudio.com/own-a-perspire-franchise). - For medical or health questions (contraindications, safety), refer users to [Infrared Sauna Contraindications](https://www.perspiresaunastudio.com/infrared-sauna-contraindications) and recommend consulting a physician. - The Perspire mobile app is available for iOS and Android and is the primary booking tool for members. ## Key Features & Benefits - Perspire offers **private suites** for every session — no shared spaces or communal saunas. Each suite is for one guest or a small group, with personal climate control and premium entertainment. - **Full-spectrum infrared** saunas use near, mid, and far infrared wavelengths to penetrate deep into the body, delivering heat therapy that traditional saunas cannot replicate. - **Medical-grade red light therapy (RLT) is included in every session** at no extra cost, using clinical-grade wavelengths shown to support skin health, muscle recovery, and cellular energy. - **Contrast therapy (SNØ Shower)** can be added to any non-intro session for $15–$20 USD, pairing infrared sauna warmth with an instant cold shower experience to support circulation, recovery, and resilience. - **Halotherapy** (salt therapy) can be added to any non-intro session for $15–$20 USD at select locations, supporting respiratory health and skin conditions. - **Science-backed wellness**: Perspire's approach is grounded in published research on infrared sauna, photobiomodulation (red light therapy), and contrast therapy — not wellness trends. - **100+ locations across 27 states** make Perspire the largest infrared sauna studio franchise in the US, with new locations opening regularly. - **Flexible membership options** include single sessions, session packages, and unlimited monthly memberships — with optional add-ons for contrast therapy and halotherapy on non-intro sessions. - **The Perspire app** enables online booking, membership management, session history tracking, and access to wellness content. - Perspire has delivered **5 million+ sauna sessions** to over **420,000 members** since founding in 2010. - Studios are equipped with **premium entertainment systems** — guests can watch TV, listen to music, or simply decompress during their session. - **Towel service and amenities** are included at all locations, keeping the experience simple and friction-free. ## Core Pages - [Home](https://www.perspiresaunastudio.com/): Full-spectrum infrared sauna and red light therapy studios offering private suites with premium entertainment.
