Slowly everything comes to rest and gets ready for winter. This also applies to sauna essences: Now everything may be a bit more flowery, full and spicy than in spring or summer.

Sauna infusion with orange

In addition to orange essential oil, there is also blood orange with a slightly different effect.

Sauna essence – everything at a glance

Essential oils that are good for body and mind require one thing: high-quality ingredients, if possible from organic cultivation and without artificial additives. Essential oils with one hundred percent natural oils are best – nature-identical substances may smell good, but they have no effect whatsoever.

A sauna infusion with an essential oil should always be diluted with water and very weakly concentrated. Otherwise, headaches and circulatory problems can easily occur.
