HOW COMFORTABLE IS A TRADITIONAL OUTDOOR SAUNA?

 Spending quality time in a traditional outdoor sauna provides many health benefits. A traditional outdoor sauna helps with everything from removing toxins, reducing stress, increasing blood circulation, and strengthening the immune system.

However, for maximum comfort in a sauna, you must consider several factors. We want you to make the best decision when considering a traditional sauna. This post will look at the top factors to consider when shopping for a sauna and the best types to go for.

What is a Traditional Outdoor Sauna?

A traditional sauna, also known as the Finnish sauna, is a wooden structure or room using water and heated stones to generate a hot and humid environment capable of providing several health benefits. The structure is usually large enough to accommodate several people, but it can be constructed to be any size. Unlike infrared saunas, traditional saunas heat the air to heat the body more.

A major advantage of a traditional outdoor sauna is that you can control the humidity and temperature of the room during the session. You can control the amount of water poured over the rocks, thus adjusting the level of humidity and heat as you prefer. Adding the water can also provide a more comfortable experience for a sauna session. For a better experience, you can include aromatherapy by adding essential oils to the water.

Traditional saunas take around 40-45 minutes to reach the required temperature to properly heat the rocks in the sauna. You should spend ten to fifteen minutes in the sauna for maximum benefits. You can enjoy multiple rounds and ensure you drink enough water before and after using your sauna to avoid dehydration.
