Yes it is very good for you and it feels great. I use my gym's sauna regularly. Just came back from using it as a matter of fact. Just go in, sit, stretch and sweat. The best way to do it is to go into the sauna, stay in as long as you can and go cool down under the showers then go back in and repeat until you can't do it anymore.
As far as the temperature goes- at least in the sauna I use the people can control the temp by pouring more water over hot rocks. I like it to be very hot (about 200-220) so I mix 1 teaspoon of Eucalyptus extract in a bottle of water and pour it over the rocks in stages to get that soothing smell and it really clears out your sinuses.
Just be careful and don't stay in for too long or when you haven't drank a lot of water. ]
