1.
You Deserve It
First and foremost, your sauna experience is simply a much
needed, and well deserved, respite from the stress of life.
Whether you choose to relax with family and friends or enjoy
your solitude, your sauna provides mental and physical rejuvenation
and an overall feeling of well being.
2. Cardiovascular
Improvement
Your body responds to the sauna’s dry heat by increasing
blood circulation and perspiration, the same natural cooling
mechanism used in exercise. A 10 minute sauna requires an
elevated heart rate and cardiac output, and also metabolic
rate, all contributing to cardiac fitness.
3. A Healthy Glow
Sauna bathing helps improve your skin tone by stimulating
your epidermis, opening pores and increasing circulation
near the skin’s surface. You gain that youthful, just-returned-from-vacation
look.
4. Take Off The
Weight and Keep It Off
Studies show that a person can burn 300 - 400 calories during
a 20 to 30 minute sauna. That’s the equivalent of aerobic
exercise, such as jogging or rowing, for the same period.
5. Eliminate Harmful Toxins
Your sweat glands eliminate a surprising amount of harmful
toxins, as well as traces of alcohol, nicotine and cholesterol
flowing through your bloodstream.
6. Increase Your Resistance
To Disease
By increasing your circulation and oxygen flow — together
with improving your overall level of wellness — the
dry sauna heat helps your body strengthen its immune system
required to fight colds, congestion and infection.
7. Post-Exercise
Relaxation
Sauna bathing assures higher circulation and more oxygen
delivered to aching muscles, helping loosen up tight muscles
for greater relaxation and faster recuperation.
8. Relief of
Arthritic Pain
Just what the doctor ordered. A dry, warm climate is what
doctors prefer for those patients suffering from arthritic
or stiff, painful joints.
9. Restful Sleep
The soothing effects of sauna bathing, followed by a cold
shower, help promote a deep, restful sleep.
