It depends upon your goal. We have held sessions ranging from early in the morning into late in the evening.
For early morning sessions, we recommend less time in the sauna, starting with cold (as difficult as that is) and finishing with cold. Finishing with the cold will leave you feeling energized, focused and ready to take on the day.
For evening sessions, we recommend spending more time in the sauna and using the ice as a brief reprieve from the heat. Prolonged sauna time will put you into a restful state. Furthermore, the sauna will put your body into a state where it will cool off, allowing you to sleep more deeply.
