AnySauna announces the launch of its annual research scholarship, offering 10 awards to U.S. students conducting research on infrared sauna and heat therapy. The scholarship aims to support studies in health, performance, and wellbeing, with applications opening in December 2025 and closing in April 2026.
Albuquerque, NM, United States, 25th Nov 2025 – AnySauna today announces the introduction of the AnySauna Sauna Research Scholarship, a competitive funding initiative offering 10 scholarships of $5,000 USD each year, designed to support student‑led research in infrared sauna and heat therapy studies focused on health, performance and wellbeing.

Key Details at a Glance
- Purpose: To fund pioneering research on infrared sauna (and closely related heat therapy) in the United States—covering topics such as cardiovascular & metabolic health, exercise performance & recovery, stress, mood, sleep, and comparing sauna types (infrared versus traditional/steam).
- Eligibility: Students enrolled at accredited U.S. colleges or universities (upper‑level undergraduate, graduate or professional) in disciplines including exercise science/kinesiology, human physiology, health sciences, public health, psychology, neuroscience or related areas. Projects must center infrared sauna usage, not treat it as an afterthought.
- Award: Ten one‑time awards of $5,000 USD each year. Funds may be used for research costs (lab fees, equipment access, consumables), participant incentives, data collection/analysis, travel for field or conference work, or educational expenses.
- Application window: Opens 1 December 2025; closes 1 April 2026. Recipients announced 15 June 2026. Full details and application instructions are available at the AnySauna Sauna Research Scholarship page.
- Selection criteria: Applicants are judged on: clear focus on infrared sauna/heat therapy; scientific quality and feasibility of the project; potential real‑world impact on health, performance or wellbeing; academic merit; clarity and professionalism of application materials.
With this scholarship, we’re investing in the next wave of meaningful research that will deepen our understanding of how infrared sauna and heat therapy can influence wellbeing and human performance,” said Ryan Martin, Founder of AnySauna. “We’re looking for serious students who are ready to treat sauna use as a central element of their research—not a side note.
Why This Matters
Interest in infrared sauna and heat therapy has grown within wellness, health‑performance and recovery communities. Yet despite expanding popularity, rigorous academic research on standardized protocols (temperature, duration, frequency, timing) and direct comparisons with other sauna types remains limited. AnySauna’s scholarship aims to fill this gap by enabling student‑led projects that contribute to evidence‑based practice and improved real‑world outcomes.
