FAQ
What is Infrared Sauna at NPMD?
Infrared Sauna is a relaxation-focused Spa & Recovery experience at NPMD in Encino. It is designed to support comfort, renewal, and a calmer spa visit without replacing medical diagnosis or treatment.
Who is infrared sauna best for?
It may be a good fit for patients who want a premium spa experience, recovery-minded relaxation, event preparation, or a gentler complement to their broader NPMD wellness or treatment plan.
Is this the same as a medical treatment?
No. Spa & Recovery services are the softer, relaxation-focused side of NPMD. Injectables, lasers, PRP, chemical peels, device-based treatments, IV therapy, hormones, and weight management remain in Treatments or Wellness.
Are there safety considerations?
We review comfort, health history, recent procedures, and any contraindications before recommending the experience.
Can I pair this with other NPMD services?
Often yes, depending on timing and candidacy. We may recommend pairing spa services with Treatments or Wellness services only when the combination is appropriate and comfortable.
