Benefits of a Traditional Steam Sauna

Are there health benefits to sitting in a sauna after your workout? For sure there are! Let’s run through some of the ways that your body will benefit;

Better Circulation – The heat in a sauna causes your blood vessels to widen and your heart beat faster, both of which will improve the circulation of blood in your body. From improving joint movement and increasing ease of mobility to decreasing recovery time and minimising the risk of mortality and fatal cardiac incidents, there are so many benefits that come with ensuring your blood supply is adequately circulated around your body.

Detox – Saunas are one of the best ways for detoxifying the body. Our environment is loaded with nasty chemicals which we can’t avoid and deep sweating has been proven to be an effective method of riding the body of some of these chemicals. Taking the time to deep sweat in a sauna can reduce all the amount of copper, lead, nickel, zinc and other dangerous toxins in your body.

Reduce Stress – Are you feeling a bit down? Are you looking for a means to increase the endorphins in your body? If yes, having a sauna 4-7 times per week might be the answer. Not only can having a sauna regularly reduce the levels of stress in your body, you will also enjoy better sleep with longer, deeper sleeps being another knock on effect.

Social Benefits – A sauna can be a place to shut off from the world and enjoy time in your own space but it can also be a relaxing environment where you can spend time with friends or get to know your fellow gym members. The sauna room setting is so perfect for intimate and quiet conversation and it’s also ideal for some solitude so the choice is ultimately yours!

Skin Cleansing – Bathing in the heat is one of the word’s oldest means of cleansing the skin. When your body gets into deep sweating mode, your dead skin cells will be washed away leaving your skin looking cleaner and healthier.
