Weekly Ritual?
How frequently should a sauna bath be taken? This is a question one often hears posed. In Finland, over the centuries, the sauna bath has been a weekly habit. In fact it has been a Saturday ritual, which involved collecting firewood and tending a fire for several hours to bring the sauna room to the requisite temperature. With the electrically-heat-ed saunas of today, this drudgery is avoided. You merely switch it on and within minutes you are relaxing in the pleasant and soothing heat You can take a sauna bath daily if you wish to, and if you are suffering aches and pains you probably will. If you have a weight problem, regular sauna baths will help.
