It is a room with a temperature between 70-100 degrees Celsius, with a humidity ranging between 10-20%, and there are several different types of them depending on the room temperature, which are:
Burned wood: where wood is used to heat the room and sauna stones, the humidity in this type of sauna is low with a high temperature.
Electric heating: It is similar to burning wood, and has a high temperature and low humidity, through the use of an electric heater connected to the floor.
Infrared room: Light waves from dedicated lamps are used to raise the temperature of the body, not the room as a whole. Of course, the room temperature is warm and reaches approximately 60 degrees Celsius.
Steam room: It is not widespread or traditional, and the humidity is very high.
Health benefits of sauna
Regardless of the method of heating the sauna room and the percentage of humidity in it, but the effect on the body is the same, and the benefits of the sauna are as follows:
Increases blood circulation: the heart rate rises and the blood vessels expand as a result of sitting in the sauna and the high temperature in it.
Reducing joint and muscle pain and also reducing arthritis pain, by increasing blood circulation in the body.
Promotes good mood and psychological comfort.
May reduce the risk of premature death from heart disease, this is what a Finnish study of 2,315 men found for more than twenty years, where using the sauna two to three times a week reduced the risk of death from heart disease by about 22%.
Using the sauna is similar to exercising moderately, as the heart rate rises to 150 beats per minute while using the sauna, so that more blood is pumped to the body, just like that resulting from moderate exercise.
Reduce stress and depression.
Myths about the benefits of sauna
Although there are some benefits to using a sauna, some of them are just myths, and they include:
Using the sauna rids your body of toxins. Although your body sweats more than usual in the sauna, there is no scientific evidence so far that this sweating rids the body of toxins.
Using the sauna helps in losing weight: This is logical because the body loses fluids but not fats. If you feel that you have lost some weight after using the sauna directly, your weight will return to normal after you eat or drink on the same day.
