Why should I consider a home sauna?
Historically, home saunas have always been popular in countries with colder conditions or wellness traditions.
The Ancient Greeks were aware of its therapeutic benefits, but it is generally acknowledged that Finland perfected the sauna as the ultimate well-being practice that has spread worldwide. However, over the next few years, we can expect to see many UK homeowners adopting a sauna into their everyday bathroom routine.
The sauna’s beauty lies in its ability to produce intense heat, enabling the body to quickly eliminate significant amounts of toxins. In fact, exposure to high temperatures (60-100 °C), the dry air, and the natural wood of the sauna offer numerous benefits for both the mind and body.
Saunas are effective for pain management, as the high heat encourages the body to release endorphins, providing a calming effect that eases joint and muscle soreness.
They also improve sleep; using a sauna before bed helps the body wind down, leading to deeper rest.
Additionally, saunas can boost the immune system by increasing white blood cell production, reducing the risk of colds and flu. Finally, deep sweating in saunas helps eliminate toxins like lead and mercury, promoting overall health.
