Experience the Best Far Infrared Sauna in Denver, Colorado
Enjoy a rejuvenating spa experience at Oakwell Beer Spa in Denver. Our infrared saunas use modern-day technology that surpasses the traditional sauna experience.
Sit back, relax, and soak up Oakwell Beer Spa’s Infrared Sauna’s healthy, healing heat. This technique improves your wellness by encouraging your body to detox, sweat, and alleviate tense muscles.
What is an Infrared Sauna?
While traditional saunas involve increasing the room's temperature to kickstart the body's sweat, far infrared saunas utilize infrared waves that penetrate straight to the cellular level of your body for more significant results.
When relaxing in the Infrared Sauna at Oakwell Beer Spa, your core body temperature rises to encourage sweat and detoxification. With an increase in your body's core temperature, your sweat comes from internal processes rather than external heat.
What is Infrared Light?
Infrared light is a wavelength from the sun known as Infrared Radiation. It's invisible to the human eye and a part of the sun's light spectrum. That said, it doesn't contain UV rays, so it's not harmful to the human body. An infrared sauna experience directly affects your cells and purges toxins from the inside out, which leaves you feeling refreshed.
Infrared Saunas, like we have at Oakwell Beer Spa, harness the safe parts of sunlight to raise your body's heat, increasing your heart rate and enhancing your circulation. This helps improve skin elasticity, promotes healing, and supports weight loss.
Anti-Aging
Releasing sweat and toxins from your body helps rid bacteria and dead skin to promote softness. Infrared rays can also help clear up acne and firm skin against wrinkles, keeping your body feeling and looking radiant, light, and smooth.
Weight Loss
Burn calories while resting? Yes, please! Your heart rate increases when you're relaxing and sweating in the sauna. This tricks your body into thinking it's engaging in cardio, so you burn calories.
In fact, a recent study found that a 30-minute Infrared Sauna session can burn up to 600 calories.
Detoxification
Saunas have been used for thousands of years to clear the body and mind through sweating. Oakwell Beer Spa's modern technology combines ancient spa techniques to form a new and effective way to cleanse your body.
Infrared Sauna rays go an inch and a half into your skin to increase your body’s temperature. This speeds up your heart rate and creates a deep perspiration that shifts toxins and sends them out of the body through sweat.
This deep internal sweat can clear the buildup of nicotine, sodium, cholesterol, and heavy metals from your system.
Pain Relief
If you’re experiencing pain, an Infrared Sauna session can be an effective medicine.
Since your sauna treatment at Oakwell Beer Spa increases your heart rate and makes your body feel like it’s doing exercise, your pulse lifts. This expands your blood vessels and improves overall circulation to relieve tension in the body.
Several studies also show infrared therapy as a helpful treatment for people with arthritis and athletes in recovery.
Wellness Benefits of a Far Infrared Sauna
According to infrared therapy clinical studies, there are numerous Infrared Sauna benefits. Infrared heat activates the sweating process from within, so you can experience relaxation while reaping health benefits too.
What to Expect From Your Infrared Sauna Experience at Oakwell Beer Spa, Denver
Oakwell Beer Spa’s cozy taproom and luxury spa services create a relaxing atmosphere. Although we offer a unique experience, we like to keep things simple and stress-free.
Beer Therapy Room
The Beer Therapy Room is the highlight of Oakwell Beer Spa, which you can enjoy during your Infrared Sauna appointment.
This modern, luxurious room fits one to two people. Each room has an infrared sauna, rain shower, and beer bath hydrotherapy tub.
Start your Beer Therapy Circuit with a 20-minute infrared sauna session to sweat out toxins and open up your pores. This prepares your skin to soak up all the benefits of your beer bath blend of hops, malted barley, and herbs.
During your Beer Therapy Room session, the sauna and beer bath helps promote calmness, cleanses skin of bacteria and toxins, encourages healthy hair and skin, alleviates muscle and joint pain, and boosts digestion and metabolic rate.
To get the full wellness experience, you’ll spend 20 minutes detoxing in the sauna, get your blood flowing in a cold rain shower, then spend the rest of your time relaxing in your warm bubbly beer bath.
Taproom
The cozy taproom oasis at Oakwell Beer Spa offers various craft beverages from local Colorado producers, including beer, wine, kombucha, and non-alcoholic drinks.
We also host a tap takeover with a different Colorado brewery each month!
Start your experience at Oakwell in the taproom, or wait until after your treatment to kick back with a beverage. If you'd like to enjoy a drink in your Beer Therapy Room, keep it cold and fresh, even in the sauna, by using one of our special triple-insulated tumblers.
Sanitization
Our promise to all Oakwell Beer Spa guests is to provide a safe, clean and sanitized environment. We take pride in our strict cleaning procedures to ensure each visit feels like it’s the first time your Beer Therapy Room, including the sauna, has been used.

What a fun and different thing to do
My husband and I were gifted the spa experience and massage- and it was amazing! From the moment we checked in, we were treated with special care: spa shoes, local drinks in insulated tumblers, curated snacks, hosts who knew and used our names. The spa suite was so clean and relaxing- the sauna, the spa tub, and the shower. Products were available, but no pressure was applied to purchase. The massage chairs took the experience over the top and left us feeling like happy noodles. We look forward to our next visit!

Staff was very friendly and the place was awesome
Edited 7/30/26 We were able to stop by for my birthday trip again. We ordered the Oakwell Escape package with the birthday banner, vegetarian charcuterie board, chocolates, and 30 minute massage. It was a wonderful experience once again! The staff were friendly and the drinks were great! I recommend the Guava Spritz. My husband and I had a wonderful time at the Oakwelll Beer Spa! It was the perfect start to my birthday trip. The staff were friendly and made us feel at home. Our spa room was decorated with candles, flower petals, and a banner since we ordered the Date Night Package but were also celebrating my birthday. I am not a huge beer drinker, but I enjoyed the selection, especially their signature Spa Water beer. We ended the night with the massage, which I definitely recommend to add on to your experience. The products provided (shampoo, conditioner, and soap) will leave your skin and hair feeling so soft. I had to buy some to take home. We hope to make this a staple each time we travel to Denver!
Very pleasant experience. I loved the auroma of the herbs in the hottub. And the infrared sauna gets you sweating fast. I loved the stellar ✨️ constellations on the ceiling while relaxing in massage chairs.

This spa is a dream! Would highly recommend, incredibly clean, friendly, relaxing atmosphere. My husband and I were treated like royalty, we certainly were not ready to leave!
Came here for our anniversary for the first time and it was great. They greeted us at the door and walked us through the location and had us sample as many drinks as we wanted. The room was clean and cozy and the drinks and snacks were delicious. The massage after was great, we have a massage chair at home so we weren’t sure if it would be worth it but it was a great chair and we didn’t regret it at all. The staff was very friendly and accommodating without being too pushy on the optional upgrades or products. Overall we loved it and will be back. Highly recommend 😌
We have been to the Beer Spa in RiNo many times before but this location is top notch. We visited today on a whim and were delighted by the entire experience. Daniel was incredibly helpful and patient when I had to call (3 separate times) ensuring my issues were resolved before our visit. Upon arrival he was waiting to open the door for us, provided a tour, and got us set up with drinks as we waited. The space is very clean and comfortable. There is even a patio and fire pit to relax by. Our spa suite was delightful with an inferred sauna, infused hot tub, and shower. I highly recommend the spa exclusive cucumber beer to enjoy during your experience. I cannot wait to return to this location for another visit.
Infrared Sauna in Denver FAQs
Do you have more questions about infrared saunas? If so, we'd love to answer them so you can prepare for and enjoy your next spa experience!
What is an infrared sauna?
An infrared sauna uses gentle infrared heat to warm your body directly rather than heating the air around you. Many guests find it deeply relaxing and a great way to support overall well-being.
How does the infrared sauna fit into the Oakwell experience?
Most guests enjoy the Oakwell wellness circuit: start in the infrared sauna, cool down in the shower, then relax in the beer-inspired hydrotherapy bath. You are more than welcome to create your own circuit.
How long do guests typically stay in the infrared sauna?
Session length can vary by guest comfort, but most people spend 15 to 20 minutes in the sauna and take breaks as needed within their 90-minute Private Spa Suite experience.
Are there any side effects of infrared saunas?
Since you sweat a lot and can get dehydrated, it’s common to feel lightheaded after a sauna session. You can alleviate this by drinking plenty of water before and after the sauna. It’s also important to rest your body after your session to entirely reap the benefits.
Can I bring a drink into the sauna?
For comfort and safety, we recommend enjoying beverages responsibly in the saunas as well as before and after your time in the sauna. There is also plenty of water available.
Are there age restrictions?
Guests must be 14+. Anyone under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.
Are there health considerations?
If you are pregnant, have cardiovascular conditions, or other health issues, please consult your physician before using the infrared sauna or any heat-based experiences.
Do I need to book the infrared sauna separately?
No — the infrared sauna is part of your Private Spa Suite experience and is included with your reservation.
