Intermediate protocol
After 4 weeks of regular use, you've adapted to the heat. Step up to longer sessions, higher temperatures, and light löyly.
After 4 weeks of regular use:
| Variable | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| Frequency | 3 to 4 sessions per week |
| Duration | 15 to 20 minutes per session |
| Temperature | 175°F to 195°F / 80°C to 90°C |
| Löyly | Light (3 to 5 small pours per session) |
| Cool-down | Required, including cold immersion if available |
At this stage, you've adapted to the heat and can comfortably handle longer sessions at higher temperatures. Löyly becomes part of your routine.
