Sauna safety is a priority! Here are a few rules to keep in mind:
- Hydration
Remember to stay well-hydrated before entering and after leaving the sauna. Sweating can lead to fluid loss. - How much time should be spent in the sauna?
The time spent in the sauna depends on individual preferences, experience, and overall health condition. Beginners usually start with shorter sessions, for example, 5-10 minutes, and then gradually extend the time as they get accustomed. Experienced sauna-goers may opt for longer sessions, but it's important to listen to the body's signals and avoid overheating. The ultimate time spent in the sauna should be comfortable and enjoyable for the individual. - Rest
After leaving the sauna, take a break for at least as long as you spent inside. It's crucial to give your body time to regenerate and return to homeostasis. - Avoid using the sauna alone
Try not to use the sauna alone so that someone can assist you if needed. - Precautions
Avoid using the sauna if you are under the influence of alcohol or if you have health problems that you haven't discussed with a doctor. - Temperature
Always adjust the sauna temperature to your comfort and experience level. - Common sense
Listen to your body. If you feel unwell, leave the sauna and rest.
