With a sauna all the bodies stress and tensions are drawn out by the sun’s radiant heat that was stored in the wood that is burning. As sauna stove warms the dry heat reaches deep into your body and forcing all the toxins out of it. The apparent felt heat is increased by pouring water on to the stove rocks that is accompanied with a loud hissing and snapping sound. As the humidity rises your sweat flow increases removing more poison and toxins.

You will find the best Finnish style saunas located near a cold clear lake or river. When the heat of the sauna is almost unbearable and the toxins are on the skins surface you open the sauna door and head for the lakes cold water. A quick dunk in the water rinses all the poisons off your body. You are now clean, refreshed and many times feel very much alive. Only a sauna with snow will make you cleaner and more totally alive.
