Relieve Your Tension and Stress with DIY Sauna Kits

Though many will think Sauna to be the latest fitness fad, yet they have been known for relieving stress and tension for more than 7000 years now. The credit for Sauna invention goes to the Finns (Sauna is a Finnish word). Although if we look into ancient cultures, we will find that Russia and North America had sweat lodges like Banya and temescal for medical purposes, but it was Finnish who had the tradition of having home Sauna and so this culture of having home Sauna is technically exported from Finland.

What is it that sets apart sauna from steam room? 

It is the invisible steam that differentiate home sauna from steam rooms that you see in athletic club. Home steam sauna doesn’t look like a steam room since the difference is very distinct and can be clearly observed even though both of them have steams. Steam rooms generally have tiles and have humidity level of almost 100%. The steam rooms are marked with constantly billowing clouds of condensed vapor that is created using a generator. The temperature of steam rooms is around 104⁰F.

DIY Sauna Kits will help you set up small sauna at your home easily with enclosed cabins made of cedar wood. It is provided with gas or electric heater to heat special rocks in an open oven. When the water is poured over hot rocks placed on top of heater or around the heater, dry steam is produced. This burst of steam is called as löyly in Finns language. This term has gained popularity throughout the world where ever there is a home sauna. Löyly means dry vapor and is referred as ‘spirit of life’. The steam thus produced in home Sauna is visible only momentarily and quickly dissipates.

A good DIY Sauna Kits is constructed using wood like cedar, hemlock or aspen. Home sauna created using DIY Sauna Kits is efficient in maintaining high temperature of up to 200⁰F. When water is poured over hot rocks (which are heated using the electric or gas heaters) a thick hot vapor is created and is often called as wet sauna. However humidity level in home sauna remains at 10% (it may go up to 20% in some extreme rare cases). If you sprinkle water over hot rock and it does produces bubble which subsequently turns to steam, this means the rocks are not sufficiently hot. Actually for a perfect dry sauna, the rocks are left alone. The temperature of the dry home sauna is more tolerable and in most of the cases, adding water to produce steam is done just few minutes before the sauna session, if at all required.

Dry home sauna provides an excellent atmosphere for people to relax. People don’t realize as much as they are sweating. Many a time people don’t even realize that they are sweating. This is deceptive since dry heat immediately vaporizes the sweat from your skin and so people are able to stay in the dry home sauna longer than a wet sauna.

You can repeat the process, should you like, after 10 minutes. Sauna in Finland is best enjoyed by dipping yourself into in icy lake or rolling over snow bank after you step out of sauna session, after taking a dip into icy lake you can return back to the sauna. If you are visiting Finland in winter, you might prefer taking a shower instead of icy bath, but it should not be a warm one. Sauna is traditionally enjoyed throughout the year and not just in winter alone. During summer, Finland sauna is followed by what is called a vihta. A handful of leafy birch twigs is used as whisk. These are dipped in the water and gently smacked on the body to open up the spores. It is believe to enhance the cleansing of the body.
