Sauna accessories for a perfect sauna experience
The sauna itself has beneficial effects on human health. The beginnings of sauna use tend to be more demanding and not everyone can withstand the optimal length of stay in the sauna. Like almost everything, it just takes practice to get your body used to the higher dose of heat and gradually increasing the time spent in the sauna. Some smart sauna accessories can also help to make this experience as pleasant as possible.
Sauna thermometer and sauna hygrometer
Many saunas already have them built in, or they are part of the "package" when buying a sauna. However, if your sauna does not have these accessories, definitely get them. Controlling the temperature and humidity in the sauna is the basis for a healthy sauna enjoyment. When choosing, focus on thermometers and hygrometers made directly for the sauna.
Timer or hourglass
Measure the time you spend in the sauna so that you don't stay in it longer than is necessary for your health.
Wooden buckets and ladles for water and lava stones
An integral part of the sauna ritual in the Finnish sauna is the regular pouring of hot lava stones. Ideal helpers are a wooden sauna bucket and water scoops.
Cooling tubs, pools, or buckets of cold water
Alternating overheating of the body with subsequent cooling forms the perfect harmony of the sauna procedure. It is recommended to repeat the heating and cooling process 2-3 times, no more. To cool down the body, you can use tubs with cold water, or if you have the space, a cooling pool. "Pouring" a bucket of cold water or taking a cold shower can also be a solution. The slowest and probably the "softest" type of cooling is cooling in the fresh air (provided that there is no harsh north wind :D )
Essential fragrance oils
Different types of scents in the form of essential oils can create an even better atmosphere in the sauna, they have relaxing, relaxing, stimulating, calming effects, but also make breathing easier.
Sauna brushes
Using a dry brush, you massage your skin and support blood circulation, activate the lymphatic system and remove dead skin cells. It is an ideal solution for cellulite, stretch marks and clogged pores.
Kilts instead of towels or sheets
The so-called "improver" for those who do not like to sauna naked. Basically, it is a terrycloth towel in the form of a kilt-wrap skirt with Velcro or other fastening.
On the market you will find many other tools and accessories that will make the time for detoxification and relaxation of the body more pleasant - time for sauna. It's up to you which one you choose.
