Ceramic tile is easy to clean, and pretty heat resistant. It does heat up quite well if the sauna is really well, so that it's hot to walk on the floor, but doesn't affect the temperature of the sauna as much as the stove (kiuas) does.
If boiling water is poured on skin, the skin burns. But sauna does not burn our skin even though the temperature in sauna is close to 100˚C. The reason is that the air inside sauna has very little moisture. If the air in sauna was humid, the skin would burn.
When sitting in a sauna, the high temperature causes the body to perspire profusely in an attempt to cool down, making the individual feel hotter than the actual temperature. This process also increases blood flow to the skin, intensifying the sensation of heat and overall discomfort.
An infrared sauna uses infrared light to raise the bodies core temperature. Like a traditional steam sauna, the infrared sauna heats up one's body stimulating the bodies lymphatic system, cardiovascular system and the immune system, helping the body rid itself of toxins through the sweet glands. An infrared sauna only heats up your body and not the air, making it comfortable for those unable to tolerate the hot air.
Infrared sauna glasses can enhance the sauna experience by protecting the eyes from intense heat, reducing eye strain, and promoting relaxation.

When I was a kid and my parents built a sauna to our summer cottage, I spent two hours straight in the sauna, but that is pretty hardcore even on my standards. As long as you as you keep yourself hydrated, there is no real time limit how long you can be in a sauna. A normal sauna session usually consists of several short 5-20 minute sessions (depending on the amount of löyly thrown and the temperature of the sauna) where you go cool off in between.
between 170 to 190f.
It does, but it is very minimal because kiuas is usually insulated from the floor so that it doesn't touch the floor. The temperature from kiuas in sauna rises up and the floor can sometimes totally cold in the winter even if it is near 100 degrees Celsius on the top shelf
A sauna is warmer than body temperature. Inside a sauna your body has difficulty cooling off by perspiration. If your internal temperature gets too high, it can cause brain damage.
