e L Uses Guide ••[.x ORS How to Take a Traditional Finnish Sauna • Traditional sauna bathing is done in 'rounds' or intervals. A round involves heating the body up and then cooling it down. A typical round consists of 10-15 minutes in the sauna followed by a cool down period of approximately 5 minutes. • Preheat the sauna to your desired temperature (traditional Finnish saunas run between 160OF and 1850F). Preheating typically takes 45 minutes to an hour. Digital sauna heaters can be started remotely via WIFI. Manual control sauna heaters can be set on a delay timer to start at a predetermined time up to 8 hours in the future. • All residential sauna heaters have a maximum independent run time of 1 hour for safety reasons, but they can be restarted again as many times as desired. When you enter the sauna for your first round, begin by resetting the heater to the full 1 hour. • The first sauna round is typically enjoyed dry, which means no water is added to the rocks. Heat stacks in a sauna, so it's normal that the floor will be much cooler than at your head. If you find your head gets too hot, you can wear a sauna hat, which will help keep your head cooler and allow you to feel more of the heat sensation on your body. • After 10-15 minutes, exit the sauna and begin your cool down phase. If you have an outdoor shower or cold plunge tub, this can be used during your cool down and provides for a much more rapid and effective cool down phase. The goal is to bring your body temperature back down in preparation for the next hot phase. • The 2nd and 3rd sauna rounds are typically enjoyed with added humidity, which increases the sensation of heat. Water can be gently ladled on to the rocks to create steam or 'l6yly'. • You may add aromatherapy oils to your water bucket to create a scented steam. The classic scents used in Finland are birch, pine and eucalyptus. All aromatherapy oils are formulated differently, so make sure yours does not leave any residue on the rocks. • When pouring water on the rocks, do so slowly and only when the sauna is at full temperature. The water should evaporate instantly when it hits the rocks. If you notice water coming out the bottom of the heater it means you are pouring too fast or too much. If you like to use a lot of water in the sauna, it is recommended to buy a sauna fountain. These stone fountains sit amongst the rocks and help create steam. • Atypical sauna session is 2 or 3 rounds. Do not skip the cool down phase on your final round. A sauna session ends with a cool down, after which you can take a warm shower. • It is important to drink water during a sauna session. You should aim to drink at least 24 ounces of water during a session. • Excessive heat exposure can be harmful to a person's health. People with poor health should consult their physicians before using the sauna. SAUNA BATHING IS NOT RECOMMENDED FOR CHILDREN UNDER 14. CHILDREN MUST BE SUPERVISED BY ADULTS. i1c''dwood Outdoors (is:) 13 allef Sawla Asserr�l.�ly�.c:.)1A'l3f.i"S tsrarai,r<:a!
