SAUNA AND HEALTH
If you are in a “reasonably” good health, the benefits of sauna are great for you, but if using it with the precautious. Thus, for any healthy person sauna bathing does not present any health risk. If you are listening to your body and staying in sauna just as long as you feel comfortable, you will have no hazards. For the ages, the Finns have used the sauna as place for treating illness, cleansing and healing the body and soothing the mind. Maybe the best way to present the opinion that Finnish people have about the benefits of sauna is to quote the old Finnish proverb: “If liquor, tar or sauna don’t help, your condition is fatal (an illness will cause the death)”.
