The oldest know medical document, the Ayurveda, appeared in Sanskrit in 568 BC and considered sweating so important to health that it prescribed the sweat bath and thirteen other methods of inducing sweat. Throughout history physicians have extolled the medicinal value of the sweat bath in its various forms such as the Finnish sauna, Russian banai, Islamic hammam, or the American Indian sweatlodge. Today, enthusiasts claim that beyond being relaxing the sauna gives relief from the common cold, arthritis, headaches, hangovers and "just about anything that ails you." Even if these claims are somewhat exaggerated, medical evidence shows that bathing in temperatures of 9O degrees C (192 degrees F) has a profoundly beneficial effect on a healthy body

Melt away stress, aches & pains, while beautifying your skin in the luxury of your personal aromatherapy steam sauna. Relax as the moist heat works wonders on your mind, body & spirit.

Dry vs Steam Saunas
Unlike dry saunas, steam saunas allow the flushing away of toxins from your skin, rather than allowing them to dry or bake back in. Steam also helps to prevent dehydration of the delicate tissue of your lungs and respiratory system.

Sauna for Beautiful Skin
Experience a full body facial that hydrates the skin, while increased blood circulation leaves your skin glowing. Impurities and dead cells are removed leaving skin brighter and more vibrant looking.

Sauna for Relaxing Aromatherapy
Just a couple of drops of aromatherapy oil in the Aroma Steam Sauna diffuser and you'll enjoy the benefits of one of our many essential oil synergies.

Sauna for Detoxification
Steam detoxification is one of the most effective treatments for ridding your body or pollutants and toxins. As your pores open up and millions of sweat glands start to excrete, the body rids itself of waste products through increased perspiration.

Sauna for Stress Relief
Warm steam and aromatherapy combine to melt away muscle tension and quiet the mind, leaving the body feeling relaxed, refreshed and rejuvenated.

When taking a sauna, skin temperature rises to 40°C (104°F) and internal body temperature rises to about 38°C (100.4°F). Exposure to the high heat creates an artificial fever state, a process known as hyperthermia. Fever is part of the body’s natural healing process. Fever stimulates the immune system resulting in increased production of disease fighting white blood cells, antibodies and interferon (an anti viral protein with cancer fighting capability).

Sauna bathing may also tolerate therapeutic value. Some studies have suggested that regular sauna bathing may lower the blood pressure in patients with hypertension and increase the left ventricular ejection fraction in patients with chronic heart failure. Sauna bathing may also improve lung function in patients with obstructive pulmonary disease and alleviate pain in patients with rheumatic disease. Although sweating may increase itching in patients with atopic dermatitis, patients with psoriasis may experience some relief. Larger randomized studies are needed to establish the clinical relevance of these findings.
