Besides just feeling amazing, research has shown that saunas can boost our health in many different ways.
Stress Reduction
Incorporating saunas into your wellness routine can greatly increase overall quality of life. This daily ritual can wash away much of the stress built up at the end of a busy day. The sauna slows down the speedy pace of life, and you’re able to breathe and focus on thoughts of health and calmness.
Recovery After Exercise
The body produces endorphins during a sauna, which help to minimize joint pain and inflammation, and can speed muscle recovery. Blood circulation is greatly increased as the body temperature rises, which helpes to speed up the body's natural healing abilities and produce new muscle fibers.
Detoxification
Deep sweating that occurs inside the sauna flushes toxins from within the body. Historically, saunas have been known to be one of the best ways to detoxify our bodies and cleanse our skin. Bacteria is cleansed from the epidermal layer, leaving a refreshed, smooth, and youthful look to the skin.
