The health aspect

Sauna is the most practical way of strengthening the immune system and reducing susceptibility to viral infections and cal also be used to treat certain diseases, including disorders if the autonomic nervous system. Raising the body temperature to 39°C during the perspiration phase (artificial fever) has the same effect as a natural fever on the body, namely the destruction of pathogens through increased temperature. The process of heating the body followed by a cold bath relaxes the muscles and induces several beneficial physiological effects such as lowering blood pressure, stimulating circulation, metabolism, the immune and respiratory system, it also has a positive effect on the subjective well-being.

The well-being and wellness aspect

Sweating in the sauna is also good for the skin and slows its aging process! The skin reacts immediately on entering the sauna, blood vessels expand, blood flow increases and after around 15 minutes the surface temperature rises to 40 – 42°C. The blood vessels constrict again during the cooling down phase. Sweating repeatedly alternated with water treatments causes very thorough, but gentle cleansing of the body. The top layer of skin is softened, rough skin cells are loosened and can be rinsed off easily. Sweat glands are activated in extremely dry skin, resulting in improved water deposits in the epidermal layer.

Please note:

  • Saunas are nudist areas in Austria.

  • Swimwear is not allowed!

  • Users enter the steam sauna naked; you will need a towel to sit on in the Finnish sauna and another one under your feet.
