T
he sauna allows you to relax both physically and mentally, to keep stress at bay and pro-
vides temporary escape from daily life. Using the sauna regularly also helps eliminate
toxins, enhances skin cell renewal and helps maintain a fresh-looking, healthy, reinvigorated
complexion.
In addition it is true to say that whilst having a sauna, you loose weight, although, this is only
due to the loss of liquid through sweating.
Even muscles benefit, particularly after intense physical exercise: perspiration helps elimi-
nate the lactic acid which is formed during physical activity (ensure you leave approximately
half an hour between physical activity and taking a sauna).
The positive benefits of taking a regular sauna last approximately a week, although the
frequency of use is subjective: according to an ancient theory, one to two saunas per week,
preferably consistently and regularly allow the body to completely attune to the stimulation
provided by the sauna and allow the body to draw on the benefits.
In any case, the most important guiding factor is that it is your choice to use the sauna and
that you feel completely comfortable.
The classic sauna ("dry sauna") was already known in Ancient Greece and then in Rome,
where its therapeutic virtues were appreciated by the many people going to the baths.
However, it was the Scandinavians who made it a strong point of their traditions, from
where its use spread to other countries.
The classic sauna (which is therefore also called a "Finnish" sauna) has a temperature
of approx. 90-95 °C and a low relative humidity (RH%).
A pleasant variant, which is similar to the hay bath, without extensive effort and pro-
viding the opportunity to breathe in aromatic oils.
It is a "gentle" sauna with a temperature of approximately 50 °C and relative humidity
(RH%) of approximately 30-35%.
It is also suitable as a substitute for the Finnish sauna.
