Sauna is a detox treatment. Once you have been circulating your blood, a sauna is a relaxing and rejuvinating extra measure you can take. Most spa treatments incorporate cold water, hot water, steam, and dry saunas as a thorough rejuvination and detoxification. Only if you have high blood pressure or heart problems you should avoid a sauna. Especially if it's a steam sauna, it is completely fine. Nothing is hurting you. Hearing that it is bad for you is the strangest thing I have ever heard, it's completely inaccurate.

Edited to add: I always also recommend spa treatment (w/sauna) for people who are trying to quit drinking/drugs/smoking. It's a wonder what it can do when done on a regular basis.
