Traditional Sauna

Benefits

  • Sauna use can lead to increased heart rate and circulation, similar to the effects of moderate-intensity exercise. Regular sauna sessions may contribute to improved cardiovascular health by enhancing blood flow, lowering blood pressure, and supporting heart function.

  • Sauna exposure, particularly heat acclimation, can increase heat tolerance and endurance in hot conditions. This effect may benefit athletes and individuals training in heat.

  • Sauna sessions can promote relaxation and stress reduction by triggering the release of endorphins and promoting a sense of well-being. Regular use may help manage stress and improve mental resilience.

  • Sweating in a sauna can facilitate the removal of toxins and metabolic waste products from the body through the skin. This detoxification process may support overall health and well-being.

  • Heat from saunas can help alleviate muscle tension and reduce pain associated with conditions like muscle soreness, arthritis, and chronic pain.

  • Sauna use, especially in the evening, can raise the body's core temperature, which subsequently drops after leaving the sauna. This drop in body temperature may promote relaxation and improve sleep quality.

  • Sauna-induced sweating can cleanse the skin by opening and unclogging pores, potentially reducing acne and promoting clearer, healthier skin.
