HigherDOSE Materials Guide 2026: What the Blanket, Mats and Bottles Are Made Of

Run your hand across a HigherDOSE PEMF mat and you feel it before you read about it: rows of small, hard stones under a smooth surface, cool at first, then warm. Pick up the copper body brush and it's heavier than you expect, a wooden board with two kinds of bristles. Tear open a bag of the bath soak and the flakes look more like coarse sea salt than bath powder.

Those details are what you're paying for, and they're easy to miss behind the brand's big promises. So Olivia Reviews went the other way. We read the material lists, spec sheets and ingredient panels on higherdose.com on October 20, 2026, and wrote down what each product is made of, in plain language, with the price next to it.

Quick take: HigherDOSE devices are built in layers (heating elements, charcoal, clay, magnets and amethyst and obsidian crystals), wrapped in vegan or PU leather, and paired with GOTS-certified organic cotton covers and inserts and real New Zealand shearling. The body care lists every ingredient online. If you know what you want to touch, wear or soak in, see today's HigherDOSE deals before you choose.

Why Materials Matter More Than Usual Here

You don't glance at these products. You lie on a mat for half an hour, zip yourself inside a blanket, press a brush against bare skin or sit in a bath with a scoop of salt. Surfaces get warm and damp, covers go through the wash, and oils go straight on skin. That's why the questions worth asking are practical: What's this layer? Can I wash it? What's actually in the bottle? Here's how the brand answers, product by product.

The Infrared Sauna Blanket: Five Layers Deep

The Infrared Sauna Blanket ($699) lists five layers on its product page:

Far-infrared heating elements, set by a handheld controller across nine levels, up to 175°F.
A charcoal layer, which HigherDOSE says is there to reduce EMF and ELF.
A clay layer that the brand says helps balance the heat.
A magnetic strip.
A crystal layer of amethyst and obsidian.

The outside is a wipe-down surface: the directions say to let the blanket cool after a session, then wipe it clean. What touches you is up to you. The brand suggests long sleeves, pants and socks, or its towel insert.

Infrared Sauna Blanket Insert ($89, or $229 for three): 100% GOTS-certified organic cotton with clean dyes, medium weight, machine washable and quick to dry. It comes in Black or Jacquard, and one insert currently ships free with the blanket. GOTS, as the brand explains it, means the cotton was processed in certified facilities with documentation at each step of the supply chain.

The PEMF Mats: Stones Under Leather

Both PEMF mats list six layers: PEMF cores and far-infrared heat, plus charcoal, clay and magnetic layers, and amethyst and obsidian crystals. That crystal layer is the bumpy texture you feel through the top.

Infrared PEMF Pro Mat ($1,295, or $1,374 with cover): 29 by 73 inches, 43 pounds, with a vegan leather surface and four PEMF cores.
Infrared PEMF Go Mat ($699, cover included): 19.5 by 39 inches, 11 pounds, with two PEMF cores.

The covers are where softness comes in. The Infrared PEMF Mat Cover ($79 full size, $59 for the Go Mat) is a blend of 35% bamboo and 65% combed long-staple organic cotton, and the brand says its organic cotton comes from GOTS-certified growers in India and Turkey. It's machine washable, so it takes the sweat instead of the mat.

For something plusher, the Natural Sheep Shearling Cover ($139 small, $239 large) is 100% New Zealand shearling, in Ivory or Honey. The brand lists it as Leather Working Group certified and describes it as naturally heat resistant, so it stays comfortable on a warm mat.

The Red Light Devices: LEDs, Silicone and Batteries

The light devices are about components rather than fabrics:

Full Body Red Light Mat ($1,199): a PU leather exterior over a grid of 1,000 LEDs (825 single-chip 660nm and 175 dual-chip 660nm plus 850nm), with a silicone cover over the panel and USB-C power. It measures 78.7 by 41.37 inches.
Red Light Face Mask ($349): flexible silicone with a strap system and 66 dual-core LEDs (132 diodes) at 630nm and 830nm. A rechargeable lithium-ion controller charges by USB-C in three to four hours, and goggles and a storage bag come in the box.
Red Light Hat ($449): a cordless baseball-cap design with 120 LEDs at 650nm, an 800mAh lithium-ion battery and USB-C charging. It weighs 0.8 kg.

Practical note: the mask lists an operating range of 32°F to 104°F, so it isn't one to leave in a hot car.

The Copper Body Brush: Wood, Horsehair and Wire

The Supercharge Copper Body Brush ($69) has one of the most detailed material lists on the site: a beechwood board, two rows of horsehair bristles (which the brand says are responsibly and humanely sourced), four and a half rows of copper wire bristles, a real leather strap and iron grommets. It measures 13 by 8 by 4 cm, small enough to keep by the bath. To clean it, the brand says to swish the bristles in warm, soapy water without wetting the wood. It also says not to use it on the face, neck or chest, or on sensitive or broken skin.

The 100% Organic Cotton Bath Robe ($159) is GOTS-certified terry with deep pockets. Care is simple: machine wash cold with like colors, tumble dry low, and skip bleach and fabric softener.

The Body Care: Read the Ingredient Panels

Serotonin Soak Salt ($39, or $99 for three): Zechstein magnesium chloride flakes, montmorillonite (French green clay), tapioca maltodextrin, apple cider vinegar, sunflower seed oil and two seaweed extracts, plus less than 2% essential oils (eucalyptus, marjoram, turmeric and palo santo). The brand says one bag holds four baths at four scoops each.

Heat-Activated Endorphin Oil ($75, U.S. only): castor seed oil first, then jojoba and broccoli seed oils, capsaicin, cinnamon bark oil, peppermint oil, vitamin E (tocopheryl acetate) and magnesium sulfate. The brand calls capsaicin "the warming compound found in chili peppers," so read the directions closely and keep it away from your eyes.

Daily Body Oil ($75): formerly called Light-Activated Oxytocin Oil. Organic sunflower seed oil leads, followed by caprylic/capric triglyceride, grape seed, jojoba, sea buckthorn, passion fruit, sesame and moringa seed oils, vitamin E and a run of seaweed and plankton extracts. Its fragrance is listed as a 100% essential oil blend.

What We Like and What to Watch

What we like

Full ingredient lists for every body care product.
Specific material breakdowns, down to the brush's grommets.
GOTS-certified organic cotton across inserts, covers and the robe.
Washable covers that protect the more expensive mats.

What to watch

The brand's own copy makes big wellness claims; judge the products by their specs.
Body care is final sale, so you can't return an oil you dislike.
Restocking fees on some accessories bought on their own.
PEMF mats aren't for use during pregnancy or with pacemakers or other implanted electrical devices, the brand says; ask your doctor if unsure.

Who It Suits, and Who Should Skip

A good fit if you like knowing exactly what you're lying on and putting on your skin, value organic cotton and natural fibers, and want accessories that wash easily. Skip or wait if you have sensitive skin and dislike warming ingredients like capsaicin, avoid animal-derived materials (the shearling, and the brush's horsehair and leather strap), or want to try body care before committing, since it can't be returned.

Final Verdict

Strip away the slogans and HigherDOSE is unusually transparent about what its products are made of: layered mats with real stones inside, organic cotton you can throw in the wash, New Zealand shearling, a brush with a material list worthy of a piece of furniture, and body care with every ingredient printed. Choose by the materials you'll actually live with, protect the expensive pieces with a washable cover, and remember that oils and soaks are final sale.
