Discover the health benefits and relaxation of the world’s most famous sauna tradition.
A Finnish sauna, also known as a dry sauna, is characterized by low air humidity and high temperatures ranging from 80°C to 110°C. The sauna is traditionally lined with wood, creating a natural and soothing environment. Heat is generated using specialized stoves (either electric or wood-fired), which heat volcanic stones. These stones retain and radiate heat, releasing a distinctive aroma that, combined with the scent of the wood and water-infused aromas, creates the unique experience of the Finnish sauna.
The atmosphere inside the sauna is typically dimly lit, encouraging relaxation and serenity. The heat, followed by cold treatments using water or air in the cooling areas, stimulates blood circulation and boosts the immune system, making it an ideal space for both physical and mental relaxation.
