'The Sauna Life’ is a combined presence of mind, body and spirit. Taking the time to heat bathe in a sauna (either infrared or traditional) can provide wonderful benefits and enhance your lifestyle in many ways.
In today’s lifestyles, many of us do not actively sweat on a daily basis. Numerous medical studies show that "deep sweating" brings about a multitude of health benefits. Regular bathing in a sauna by Finnleo provides all of the benefits derived from a deep sweat.
In the heat of a sauna, core body temperature rises. The bloods vessels dilate, causing increased blood flow. As heat from the blood moves toward the surface of the skin and as the core body temperature continues to rise, the body’s nervous system then sends signals to the millions of sweat glands covering the skin. When sweat glands are stimulated, they produce sweat. Sweat production is primarily for the purpose of cooling of the body. Sweat is mostly (99%) composed of water - but deep sweating in a sauna can often help reduce levels of lead, copper, zinc, nickel and mercury - all toxins commonly picked up from our everyday environment.  At the same time, skin is cleansed and dead cells are replaced, keeping your skin in good working condition.
Deep sweating rinses excess bacteria out of the epidermal layer and the sweat ducts. This process of cleansing of the pores improves capillary circulation and gives the skin a soft, glowing appearance.
Whether you use a sauna for the health benefits, as a social haven to be enjoyed with friends - or simply as a place to relax - all seem to agree that a sauna has many holistic and restorative benefits!
