Many doctors agree that taking a sauna regularly is one of the healthiest things you can do for your body. The overall effect is that you will look and feel better, but the real health benefits of saunas are much deeper than that. Saunas can help you to stay free of diseases in a natural, healthy way. There is overwhelming evidence that the toxins we breathe, eat and drink are responsible for the majority of illness, and saunas are proven to be the most effective method for the daily removal of these toxins.

Some other health benefits are:


Lose weight effortlessly

Ease sore and tired muscles

Relieve back pain or arthritis

Combat colds and sinus problems

Improve skin's look and feel

Feel peaceful and relaxed

Sleep better

Socialize with family or friends

Get a close shave

Detoxifies the body and reverses cumulative buildup of harmful chemicals. We take in a constant supply of toxins just by living normally. The kidneys can eliminate some toxins, but a significant portion builds up in the tissues. The skin can eliminate these toxins through sweating. (Your sweat is composed of about 99% water. The remaining 1% is mostly salt. What's left after that are the toxins.)

Enhances circulation in both deep and surface tissues.

Accelerates healing from wounds, injuries, and surgeries, and thus reduces scarring.
Improves skin nourishment/skin condition.

Warms muscles (maximizes muscle performance and minimizes exercise related injury).
Enhances nutrient/oxygen supply to deep tissues.

Promotes softening and elasticity of old scars (internal or external) and keloids.

Promotes deep cleansing of skin pores. The sauna definitely cleans the body thoroughly from the inside out. Heavy perspiration in a sauna is an excellent way to combat skin blemishes including acne, which is the result of blocked pores and an external manifestation of a toxic body.
Induces muscle relaxation.

Accelerates metabolism (approximately 600 calories burned in 30 minutes).

Accelerates breakdown of cellulite/fat.

Boosts the immune system.

Reduces pain (promotes analgesia).

Reduces physiological and mental/emotional stress.

Improves digestion. Provides an anti-cancer effect (induced by hypothermia, enhanced immune and circulatory systems and elimination of carcinogenic toxins)
