Stationary saunas have been known since ancient times, and almost every nation had them. They are ancient Roman thermae, Turkish hammam, Japanese and Russian saunas, Finnish sauna and so on.
Now there are not only stationary sauna of all kinds, but also mobile. Moreover, there are models designed for operation in the field. But today we will talk about a mobile sauna-box, which is a very interesting and useful design!
History of the sauna-box
Perhaps once upon a time there were attempts to create a cylindrical mobile sauna, but it is known that such a design in its modern form was invented by Scandinavian engineers. And it happened less than 20 years ago. There is an opinion, and it is closer to the truth, that the mobile sauna in the form of a barrel was invented by a Finnish designer who wished to remain anonymous.
Mobile sauna have a huge number of obvious advantages, because they have an original appearance, do not require construction work on the site, are characterized by increased readiness for bathing procedures, economical, compact and inexpensive.
Now almost every owner of a country plot who cares about his health and knows how to relax, wants to have such a functional structure on it!
What are the benefits of a sauna?
All types of sauna, regardless of their design, size and principle of operation bring tangible benefits to human health. Because this is what happens under the influence of elevated temperatures and hot steam:
- The pores of the skin are opened, which improves its regeneration and removes toxins with sweat. The skin is rejuvenated, also due to increased blood flow
- Blood flow accelerates, which positively affects the heart, blood vessels and all internal organs.
- Respiratory health is improved, which is extremely important for those who are prone to their diseases or have suffered from coronavirus.
- The muscles regenerate, which is vital for those who periodically expose themselves to physical exertion.
- Excitability and tension of the nervous system is eliminated and stress hormone levels are reduced.
- The mood and general condition is improved.
Sauna has a powerful therapeutic and cosmetic effect, and taking steam sauna can be combined with various spa procedures. Because well steamed skin is more susceptible to the effect of nutrients!
