Health Mate Sauna

What Health Mate Sauna does

Health Mate Sauna, founded in 1979 and headquartered in the Los Alamitos/Cerritos, California area, designs, manufactures, and sells full-spectrum infrared saunas under three lines: the classic Enrich series, the smart Inspire series with app control, and the commercial Elevated Health and Therapy Lounge models priced from $5,300 to $8,500+. Its core technology is the patented Tecoloy™ dual-wave infrared heater, German-engineered to emit near, mid, and far infrared wavelengths, paired with integrated red light therapy panels, chromotherapy lighting, and ultra-low EMF construction from 100% solid mahogany or eucalyptus wood. The company holds an unusually broad stack of regional safety certifications — UL, ETL/Intertek, CE, S Mark, KC, and PSE — that supports legal sale across the U.S., EU, Canada, Korea, and Japan.

Health Mate operates primarily as a direct-to-consumer brand, selling through its own e-commerce site and a phone-based team of sauna specialists, with financing provided through a partnership with Affirm. A second-tier channel of authorized dealers extends reach across the U.S., Canada, Europe, and Asia, and a European headquarters in Lier, Belgium supports continental operations. Revenue is generated from one-time hardware sales (saunas, the standalone LumaNIR Therapy red light panel at $1,999, and accessories), with no recurring software or subscription component. Customers span individual health-conscious consumers, athletes, people managing chronic conditions, and wellness businesses such as sweat studios and sauna salons.

The company is a privately held subsidiary of the Samick Group, the South Korean manufacturing conglomerate best known for producing equipment for Steinway and Gibson, which provides manufacturing scale and global distribution capability. There is no public revenue disclosure, no external funding history, and no M&A activity, making Health Mate a niche, family-of-conglomerate-owned premium wellness brand with mature product-market fit but limited independent financial transparency.
