A sauna is a traditional hot air bath (the word comes from Finnish and means exactly that – “bath”). It is comparable to the Russian bath, although similar baths are widespread in other northern regions as well. The one thing they all have in common is the “steaming” – intense body heat that causes excessive sweating – and it is a crucial component of the treatment. Along with being hygienic, this kind of bath also has a therapeutic purpose.

Use – Since the sauna is a place for relaxation and health improvement, it is up to you how you will use it – how frequently, for how long, at what temperature and humidity. However, there are some general guidelines that must be followed to ensure the benefits of the sauna – and to keep you safe. Aromatherapy and a selected acoustic background can supplement and improve the sauna’s calming and health-promoting effects. Aromas help to maintain the body’s vital energy and tone while also altering blood circulation and soothing the senses.
