Saunas are first and foremost a place of relaxation. The soft heat and humidity soothes and relaxes tired muscles, relieves stress, and promotes a wonderful feeling of satisfaction and well being. The body's natural painkillers, beta-endorphins and norepinephrines, are released to provide a feeling much like the runner's high.
Saunas are like mild exercise, or a cardiovascular workout for your heart. During a sauna, the rate of blood circulation increases, the rate of breathing increases, the pulse rate quickens and calories are burned. A sauna should be used in conjunction with a proper diet and exercise program.
The medicinal and spiritual values of the sauna are furthered by its communal character. The sauna is a social event--like the coffee shop, neighborhood bar or picnic--and is probably the healthiest ever offered a group of people. The sauna is better when enjoyed with friends!
