Sauna 4–7 Times Weekly for Longevity
Use sauna enough to total about 57 minutes per week, either in one longer session or split across multiple days and sessions. A common implementation is 2–3 days per week with 10–15 minutes per session, using a comfortably intense but safe heat level. The goal is to create a repeated heat stress that may support cardiovascular and longevity benefits.

“What they observed was that people who went into the sauna two or three times per week were 27% less likely to die of a cardiovascular event than people that were going into the sauna just once a week. And in fact, the benefits were even greater for people that were going into the sauna four to seven times per week.”
