𝗦𝗮𝘂𝗻𝗮 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱 is a Finnish sauna expertise association and company network that aims to create the best #sauna experiences in the world.
𝗟𝗢𝗢𝗞 ⬇️

ꜱᴀᴜɴᴀ ɪꜱ an essential part of the Finn

𝐖𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐡 𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐨𝐟 𝐬𝐚𝐮𝐧𝐚 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮? 𝐓𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐮𝐬?

Some saunas are surrounded by nature, while others are in the midst of an urban environment. Even the same sauna will offer different bathing experiences depending on the time of the year. Would any of these sauna rituals popular among Finnish people be suitable for your home or other properties?

𝐅𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐡 𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐬𝐚𝐮𝐧𝐚𝐬
Saunas can be found in nearly every house and apartment built in Finland since the 1970s, even in studio apartments. Homes in apartment buildings and rowhouses often feature a small, compact sauna with an electric heater. Nearly every single-family house has its own sauna, and it has become a trend to construct a wood-burning sauna in the yard in addition to an indoor electric sauna. Apartment buildings also commonly include a shared sauna that tenants can reserve.

𝐒𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐫 𝐜𝐨𝐭𝐭𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐬𝐚𝐮𝐧𝐚𝐬
Finns love to spend time at their cottages, which are generally located at the edge of a lake or pond and are always surrounded by nature. It’s estimated that there are about 220,000 cottages in Finland. And while at the cottage, the most popular activity is sauna bathing. The process of heating the sauna is an essential part of cottage living, as is sitting on the terrace and enjoying the landscape after taking a sauna. Spending time at the cottage is also about family bonds, a sense of community, and shared activities. It’s a relaxing counterbalance to the demands of everyday life, and for many Finns, a visit to the family cottage is more rewarding than traveling abroad.

𝐁𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐲𝐚𝐫𝐝 𝐬𝐚𝐮𝐧𝐚𝐬
In recent years, it’s become popular to build freestanding saunas in the yard at home. Backyard saunas are especially favored by families who don’t own a summer cottage. Backyard saunas are ideal for single-family homes with a large yard, and they can be a wonderful addition to a backyard swimming pool. These kinds of saunas are also constructed for collective use, such as by sauna societies or to be shared among an extended family. This allows more people to take advantage of and enjoy the sauna.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐀𝐁𝐂 𝐨𝐟 𝐬𝐚𝐮𝐧𝐚 𝐦𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞

✅1. Hygiene and cleanliness: a clean sauna is easier to maintain, so clean it regularly and carefully.

✅2. Stove maintenance: replace the stones regularly. Also check the operation of the heater and the control devices.The condition of the heater is one of the key safety factors.

✅3. Technically correctly built benches: the bench structures can be tightened, repaired and cleaned if they are built correctly.

✅4. Protecting the benches; protect the benches, for example with paraffin oil, right after installation or sanding. Protection increases the life span and makes the benches look cleaner for a longer time.

✅5. Ventilation: check that the ventilation is working. Good ventilation guarantees a good sauna experience and will allow the sauna to dry properly after use.

L Ö Y L Y ♨️ The water thrown into the stove

𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗔𝗕𝗖 𝗢𝗙 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗦𝗔𝗨𝗡𝗔 ♨️

𝟭. Make sure you have enough time for your sauna visit: hurrying is not part of the sauna experience.

𝟮. Enter the sauna with a curious and open mind.

𝟯. Sit in the sauna either naked, wrapped in a towel or even in a bathing suit.

𝟰. Sit on the top bench, on the sauna towel.

𝟱. Breathe evenly and relax.

𝟲. Listen to your body and trust your feelings. Sweating, slightly increased heart rate and redness of the skin is normal. Drink water to compensate for sweating.

𝟳. If the sauna feels too hot, lie down, move to the lower benches, or take a break and cool off.

𝟴. Once you have become used to the starting temperature of the sauna, throw some water on the stove, feeling for the right temperature.

𝟵. Some time to cool off outside. Sit in the fresh air for a moment, go for a swim or roll around in the snow.

𝟭𝟬. Slap yourself lightly on the legs and the middle body with the sauna whisk.

𝟭𝟭. Visit the sauna as many times as you feel like.

𝟭𝟮. When you are finished, rinse the sweat off your skin and wash yourself in the shower room.

𝟭𝟯. Continue to relax after the sauna, either alone or with friends.

𝗦𝗮𝘂𝗻𝗮 𝗯𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱🍃

Finland is without a doubt the number one country when it comes to sauna expertise.
𝗗𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗲? 👌😀🍃

On the international level, the sauna is seen as a more Finnish product than anything else. That is why it is obvious that there has always been an active sauna business in Finland.

Finland is the country of sauna innovations, and the Finnish people are creative sauna innovators. The sauna is very important for the Finnish industry, tourism and employment. There are hundreds of sauna-related companies in Finland, and the sauna sector employs thousands of people.

The business and companies related to the sauna are multisectoral, ranging from companies that make bath products to manufactures of saunas and sauna stoves and providers of sauna experience services.

𝐖𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐧`𝐬 𝐬𝐚𝐮𝐧𝐚 𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐟𝐭 🌿

Visiting the sauna is an excellent way to take a break from your everyday life. It is a chance to rest, calm down and recover. Our everyday lives are often so hectic that we do not have as much time four our friends as we would like. That is why it is all the nicer to spend some quality time together with good friends on mini-holiday that includes shopping, good food and wine- and when is Finland, naturally a visit to the sauna.

Once the tour is over, everyone goes to sauna together. Just put your bathrobe on, take some wellness product with you, and head before the evening´s entertainment. The juiciest stories can laugh together at all the fun incidents of the day.

𝐒𝐚𝐮𝐧𝐚 𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐩 𝐭𝐨 𝐅𝐢𝐧𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐝 ♨️🇫🇮
#facts 86% international visitors want to experience the Finnish sauna on their trip to Finland.

The Finnish nature is full of silence, forests, lakes and islands.There is plenty of clean air and water in Finland. The sauna experience can be very different depending on the season, even if the sauna is the same.

You can experience the sauna in the middle of the nature or in an urban environment. People travel to Finland from all over the world at least partially because of the sauna. Travellers can often find a sauna regardless of their form of accommodation: hotels, cottage or even private villas almost always have a sauna.
