Sauna Bath

---

• Leave your clothes in the dressing room, or outside the sauna room
• Wearing clean clothes after sauna and shower is refreshing
• Take a shower before you enter the sauna, for hygienic reasons
• Enter the sauna and sit on the bench, on a small towel or such
• Humidity is increased by throwing water on the heater stones
• Recommended temperature in the sauna is between 65 to 85°C, beginners should start with mild temperature and increase it depending how the body like it
• Leave the sauna room when you feel hot enough and cool off by taking a shower or a swim, or just by sitting in room temperature or outside
• Hydrating yourself by drinking water or something else refreshing before sauna is strongly recommended, just like before heavy training; you will not get thirsty so easy in the sauna
• Have a refreshing drink if you feel thirsty, but avoid alcohol in the sauna as it dries your body
• You can repeat the hot-cold cycle as many times as you feel comfortable. Two to three rounds is typical for many
• After sauna, wash yourself after cooling down, after the sweating has ended
