Bradenton Couple Launches Perspire Sauna Studio with Advanced Wellness Technology
A new infrared sauna and red-light therapy studio opens in Bradenton, expanding access to science-backed wellness treatments that offer detoxification, pain relief, and improved sleep benefits.
Mike and Pamela Polikretis have opened the first Perspire Sauna Studio in Heritage Harbour, bringing advanced infrared sauna and red-light therapy technology to Bradenton residents. The 2,165-square-foot facility represents the country's largest sauna studio franchise and introduces contrast therapy through state-of-the-art SNØ Showers combined with full-spectrum infrared sauna technology.
The studio features ten private infrared sauna suites and five SNØ Showers, providing services designed to detoxify the body, burn calories, improve sleep quality, and ease pain. The Polikretises, who were inspired by their personal experience at the University Town Center location in Sarasota, plan to expand with two additional studios in Apollo Beach and West Bradenton or West Palmetto, marking their first business venture together.
Perspire Sauna Studio's expansion into Bradenton reflects the growing demand for science-based wellness services that combine ancient practices with modern technology. The franchise, established in 2010, has become the fastest-growing infrared sauna and red-light therapy company in the U.S., with over 250 franchise licenses awarded and more than 80 open studios nationwide.

The studio's premium amenities and concierge-level service aim to provide members with an immersive wellness experience that supports overall health and relaxation.
