The Finnish word “saunanjälkeinen” stands for “time after a sauna”, a time when you feel relaxed and ready to do anything. Even if you probably struggle with its pronunciation, you will feel the meaning of this word for yourself after 15 minutes in a Finnish sauna.

Lie down on a wooden bench and soak in the high temperature combined with low humidity. As a reward, the sauna will cleanse your body of toxins, improve your blood circulation and strengthen your immune system. And if you overcome the final challenge presented by a bucket of cold water or the cooling pool, you can be proud of yourself.

You can enhance the beneficial effects on your skin by using special creams and peeling products.
