Any one that has used a sauna will tell you that it is a
great way to rejuvenate and clean your body. The
aches and pains just seem to melt away along with all
the days stress. The sauna technology has been used
by many cultures for thousands of years. Probably the
most famous sauna traditions were developed in
Finland and were brought to the US by its immigrants
in the late 19th and early 20th century. The
Finnish
sauna
tradition was adopted by many of the different
cultures that settled in America.

These days it is really easy to purchase and install a
sauna in your home. The new
infrared sauna
technology is incorporated into sauna kits that are
manufactured for self installation.
Sauna sales data
indicate that many Americans are installing
infrared
saunas
in their homes. You can install a 3 person
Sauna
in your home in just a few hours. The use of far
infrared energy allows you to enjoy most of the
benefits of a
traditional sauna. The dry sauna heat that
comes from ceramic or carbon fiber far infrared
emitters produces its heat within the body.
Far
infrared saunas
do not develop the high heat that is
found in a
traditional Finnish sauna. This feature can
be a blessing or a curse depending on the user.

Many people cannot stand the high temperature that is
generated by a Finnish sauna. An
infrared sauna air
temperature seldom reaches 130 degrees. Many
people feel that this allows them to enjoy a good dry
sauna without heat stress. However it you have
become accustomed to using a
Finnish sauna then
you will want a high temperature sauna necessary to
get all the cleansing and therapeutic value a sauna
can provide.

If you are lucky enough to have the use of a wood
fired
Finnish sauna you have the opportunity to make
your sauna as hot as you can possibly stand. A word
of caution to those who have medical problems
especially those with cardiovascular disease
including heart disease a hot sauna can cause you
problems. A very hot sauna is also not a place for a
sauna neophyte who is not used to high Finnish
sauna temperatures. Drinking beer or any form of
alcohol is also not a smart thing to do in a very hot
sauna. Granted the tradition of beer and sauna is an
old one but caution should be used if the temperature
exceeds 150 degrees.

Many people have plumbed a cold water line into their
sauna for the purpose of wetting the rocks on the
sauna stove. This practice will increase the apparent
or felt heat levels in the sauna. Having a bucket of cold
water to quickly cool down is a good idea. In many
parts of the North Country a
UP sauna is placed near a
lake or river for the purpose of a quick cool down
once you have reached the maximum temperature you
can stand.

Another practice that is used in deep snow country
along the shores Lake Superior is to take
snow sauna.
Once the temperature reaches the extreme point you
simply open the door and jump into the snow. Just be
sure that you have at least 24 inches of settled snow
before you take that flop. More than one
snow sauna
enthusiast has broken a bone on the hard ground
when jumping into snows that are shallow or
unsettled.

A traditional high temperature
Finnish sauna is
something that is enjoyed by the seasoned sauna
users. It also does a much better job of cleaning your
body of all sorts of toxins. There really is no better way
to relax and heal the body and mind.
