The Natural Bath

SAUNA —

The centuries old Bath from Finland, is the body's natural

way to cleanse itself through perspiration.

What makes a Sauna?

The necessary ingredients of a True Sauna are:

A properly insulated room lined with a clear softwood (Cedar, Redwood, Hemlock, Pine, etc.)

A good heater which is capable of heating the room to temperatures of 165 to 195 F; and one which heats the stones directly, to provide a soft, gentle heat and instant steam when water is poured over the stones. This steam is necessary to induce perspiration, cleanse body pores and to create a pleasant climate.

Sauna is the only bath in the world where dry heat and humidity are present at the same time: thus promoting a deep cleansing of the pores. The high heat and the low humidity open the pores and promote profuse perspiration. This perspiration flushes out the body's impurities (even nicotine from a smoker's body).
