The Joy Of A Wood Fired Sauna


Nothing can cleanse your mind and body and ease your weary bones than a relaxing stint in a wood fired sauna. The pungent yet aromatic smell of the cedar lined walls, floors and benches combined with the steam from the ultra hot rocks provides your body with an intoxicating mixture of pleasure and relaxation. There are many places of business that provide saunas. Health clubs, private Japanese baths and spas are where you will regularly find saunas. If your home allows for the space, you also have the advantage of being able to put a cedar lined sauna in the comforts of your own home, allowing you to experience full relaxation any time of the day or night!

The heaters in these saunas are filled with wood which are slowly heated up, allowing for the whole room to be filled with total warmth. You also can add to the ambience in your cedar lined sauna by essentially relaxing in front of a “crackling fire” which is how the heater appears since you can see the wood burning through the slats of the heater. There is also the cost efficiency benefit of a cedar lined sauna. Because there is no electricity involved in these types of sauna, you will not have an increase in your electricity bill. Can’t beat that! Because of the lack of electricity needed to function, these types of saunas have been found in remote cabins in the forest and other places where electricity is not easily accessible. Who says you can’t get the luxury treatment while vacationing in the boon docks?

One of the most pleasant aspects of a wood fired sauna is the smell. The gentle and not too overpowering wood smell fills the small sauna area with an aromatic and invigorating scent that leaves your senses relaxed and your body deeply breathing in a wonderful, woodsy smell. You can choose many different types of wood for your sauna. One of the most often used types of wood is apple wood with its slightly sweet smell that tickles your fancy! You also have the ability to add a touch of aromatherapy scents to your wood as well. The possibilities are endless as to what type of wood to use. Try a different one each time until you find the one that relaxes you the most, or use a variety of different woods at a time to find the perfect combination for you.
