A sauna bath is a type of sweat bath that is typically taken in a small room or cabin that is heated to a high temperature, usually around 70-100 degrees Celsius (160-200 degrees Fahrenheit). The heat is typically produced by a stove or heater that uses wood, electricity or gas as fuel.
The purpose of a sauna bath is to cause the body to sweat and release toxins. The high heat in the sauna causes the body’s core temperature to rise, which in turn causes the blood vessels to dilate and increase circulation. This causes the sweat glands to become active, releasing sweat and toxins through the skin.
Sauna bath is believed to have many benefits such as:
-Relaxation
-Reducing stress
-Relieving muscle pain and stiffness
-Improving cardiovascular health
-Improving respiratory health
-Improving skin health
-Promoting weight loss
-Boosting the immune system
It’s important to note that sauna bath should be taken with caution, as it may not be suitable for everyone, particularly for those with certain medical conditions, such as heart disease or high blood pressure, pregnant women and elderly people. It’s always best to consult with your doctor before taking a sauna bath
