Saunas are known for their positive effects on the overall health, for they are a natural and relaxing way to cleanse, rejuvenate and boost the mood. They cleanse the skin and the entire body, since the heat opens the pores of the skin, the body begins to sweat from the high temperature, thus eliminating the toxins in it. Saunas are especially beneficial for people under stress, or after a workout, as there is a relaxing effect. Pressured muscles are relaxed and the autonomic nervous system controlling muscle stretching is assisted.
