Healthy Saunas

When used correctly, regular saunas strengthen your body and soul. Here are some tips that you should follow in the sauna.

The result:
Detoxification, gentle training of your circulation, a more resilient body. And if you’d like to lose a few pounds, you should eat and drink moderately after a sauna.

1. Take it easy after each meal and don’t go into the sauna with a full stomach.

2. You should always shower thoroughly before your sauna, and then dry off carefully. If you have cold feet, treat yourself to a brief warm foot bath first.

3. Enjoy your sauna! The temperatures in our saunas are between 60 °C and 100 °C. The top bench is the hottest. Stay in the sauna for 10 to 15 minutes at most. If you lie down, be sure to spend the last two minutes sitting upright before you leave.

4. Cool off (around 12 minutes) by moving around in the fresh air for a few minutes. Breathe in and out deeply. Hosing yourself down with cold water or taking a cold shower will then get your circulation moving again. If you like, you can even immerse yourself in cold water. To finish, you should have another warm foot bath and then rest for 20 minutes.

5. Your second and possibly third sauna sessions should likewise last 10 to 12 minutes. The rest phases are important to ensure that you’ve stopped sweating. Otherwise, you run the risk of catching a cold, especially in the winter.
