THE POWER OF THE
SAUNA
Although exposing the body to deep heat is prevalent in other cultures, the sauna is synonymous with Finland and is rooted in Finnish traditions, historically being used to cleanse the body and ease the mind. The word itself is Finnish and with 3.3 million of them being used by its population of 5.5 million, the sauna is an integral part of life in Finland with every home having one.
