How sauna Improves every area of your health
1. Heart and blood vessels
We know, you’ve heard it a hundred times, sauna helps your heart. But how? In the steam room, blood pressure and blood volume increase, while during rest they return to their normal values. (UCLA Study) Think of it like an engine. We always hear that it’s good to run your engine wide open to clear out the soot that accumulates. Sauna does much the same, pushing your heart and blood to flow at high pressure and low. This improves adaptive reactions of the cardiovascular system, prevents the development of cerebral circulatory disorders and reduces the risk of strokes.
2. Respiratory organs
Hot air stimulates blood supply to the mucosa of the upper respiratory tract, relieves bronchospasm, improves air exchange between air and blood. The organs are saturated with oxygen, and together they receive the necessary energy as a result of this oxidative processes.
3. The nervous system
Staying in a steam room reduces excitability, helps to achieve mental and emotional relaxation, activates resistance to stress and mental overload, improves sleep. The phase of deep sleep with participating in steam rooms improve by up to 45%, compared to average rates. Fans of steam baths understand well the meaning of the expression “sleep like a baby”.
4. Spine, bones, muscles (helps backpain)
5. The endocrine system
High temperatures stimulate the production of hormones of happiness and pleasure especially dopamine and serotonin. After visiting the sauna, you may feel a sudden surge of creative energy, while depression and stress fade into the background. In addition, growth hormone begins to be actively produced. It accelerates protein synthesis and fat breakdown. Therefore, those who want to lose extra pounds regularly take sauna sessions.
6. Metabolism
Metabolism normalization also contributes to achieving the desired weight, and most importantly, normal well-being. In the steam room, the basal metabolic rate increases by about 20%. This can speed up sweating 10 times and, along with sweat, remove toxins through the skin. After visiting the steam room visible and hidden swelling also decreases.
7. Heat exchange
Regular steaming stimulates the thermoregulation mechanism, allows you to quickly adapt to climatic and seasonal changes and reduce the risk of diseases associated with hypothermia or overheating.
