For ages, the sauna or steambath has been the very source of health and energy in Finland, but its amazing cleansing and therapeutic benefits were quickly recognized by many cultures and today sauna has become hugely popular worldwide. Find out how hot steam can do wonders to rejuvenate your body.

Sauna Benefits

If you want some serious cleansing, book a sauna session. According to the Finnish Sauna Society, the sauna bath cleanses the body of impurities through induced perspiration, and the heat that causes the body to sweat relaxes the muscles and consequently relieves aches and pains.

Proponents of steam sauna swear by the healing properties of hot steam: The heat stimulates sweating, which cleanses the pores of the skin, detoxifies the body, improves blood circulation as well as reduces stress.

The best way to enjoy your sauna is to make sure that you feel comfortable throughout the session. You can stay inside the sauna room for as long as you wish and repeat the hot-cold cycle as many times as you like so long as it feels comfortable.
