Popular for mental and physical relaxation, sauna is a natural way to help your body stay fit and healthy.

It is especially ideal for deep cleansing of the skin as it helps to open pores and flush impurities from the body. As it eliminates unwanted chemicals and toxins, the skin becomes refreshed and rejuvenated, which is why sauna is often said to be the best way to preserve that radiant glow on your face!

Sauna also provides a convenient alternative for ladies who are unable or reluctant to participate in vigorous exercises. This is because sauna helps to increase blood circulation to other parts of the body for better performance of bodily functions. Sauna also increases metabolism thus promoting weight loss. Research has found that 15 to 20 minutes of sauna is almost equivalent to 1 to 2 hours of brisk walk or 1 hour of exercise but this may vary depending on individual physical conditions.

The therapeutic properties of sauna can also help to alleviate physical conditions such as arthritis, allergies, skin ailments and chemical sensitivity. Besides this, for patients with upper respiratory infections, asthma, colds, influenza, bronchitis, and pneumonia, saunas can help to open airways and help white blood cells circulate to the affected areas, promoting healing and increasing respiration. What's more, raising body temperature can also help to kill fungus, bacteria, parasites and viruses on the skin.

For some, the use of the sauna far exceeds the physical benefits. The 80 degree dry temperature is highly beneficial to your mental health as well. It releases tension and relieves headaches, muscle and joint pains. It is also beneficial to people with sleep disorders such as insomnia as it induces a deeper, more relaxing sleep and generally improves your overall sense of well-being.
