In Finland there are more of them than there are cars on the road, almost three million, enough to satisfy the needs of every Finn at once.
\nSome use it as a cure, some as a moment of relaxation and mental cleansing: everyone (99 percent) takes a hot and steam bath at least once a week: taking advantage of the heat cleanses the body of toxins<\/strong>, relaxes the muscles<\/strong>, and stimulates the immune system<\/strong> and circulation<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

The ritual takes place just about everywhere, in the parliament building, in private homes, in offices, in the woods, even in fast food.
\nIts first in-store sauna, Burger King<\/b> opened right in Helsinki.
\nAnd where else.
\n Sauna day<\/b> is celebrated in the capital in March, and an entire region, the central region, has been proclaimed Sauna Region of the World<\/b>.
\nIn short, at Santa Claus’s house, the ritual of warmth has been a way of life since childhood.
\nIt used to be that in the sauna people gave birth and washed the bodies before the funeral, dried sausages and reindeer meat.
\nToday steaks no longer hang, but in the sauna one lingers – strictly naked – sitting in a circle, warmed by the heat of burning wood.
\nA birch branch to stimulate circulation and you socialize with neighbors, fall in love, do business, pilates and yoga. <\/p>\n

If Finland teaches, the world learns.
\nFollowers of sweat and steam are growing in the world and in Italy, a liturgy almost.
\nLike the tea ceremony in Japan, it requires precise steps and strict etiquette: one remains silent, water and ice are poured over the hot stones, essential oils must be pure, and breaks of about fifteen minutes are taken between sessions.
\nSessions should be no more than three in a day. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
