Why sauna?
Stress relief
Heat relaxes muscles, reduces tension, and promotes endorphin release.
Improved mood
Some studies suggest sauna use can reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression.
Better sleep
The relaxing effects may improve sleep quality.
Improved circulation
Heat increases blood circulation, helping to ease soreness after exercise.
Heart health
Can reduce stiffness and discomfort in arthritis and chronic pain.
Boosted metabolism
Helps eliminate small amounts of toxins and heavy metals, though your liver and kidneys do the main detox work.
Muscle recovery
Heat causes blood vessels to dilate, enhancing blood flow.
Joint pain relief
Regular sauna use has been linked to lower blood pressure and reduced risk of heart disease and stroke.
Detox support
Mild calorie burn from elevated heart rate (similar to light exercise).
Immune support
Some studies suggest saunas may strengthen immune response and reduce risk of infections.
Reduced inflammation
Heat exposure can lower systemic inflammation over time.
Potential longevity boost
Frequent sauna use has been linked to longer life expectancy in some population studies (especially in Finland).
