According to the “Deutscher Sauna-Bund e. V.” (German Sauna Association), around 30 million Germans now regularly go to the sauna. Sweating not only supports the immune system, but also the soul. We explain why taking a sauna can be so relaxing.
Regular sauna sessions train the vascular system and the stimulus between heat and cold provides a perfect immune defense. This way, colds and flus don’t stand a chance. The mucous membranes are better supplied with blood through the sauna session and the organism can better eliminate harmful substances, but also harmful germs. These health benefits for the prevention of colds apply to all types of saunas.
