Feel the well-being of the sauna.

Sauna Therapy focuses on the unique health benefits of the sauna culture and revives the ancient tradition of treatments. All senses are nourished by the treatments included in the book. They combine Finnish traditional know-how and aesthetics. Instructions for the sauna treatments inspire us to try out the different baths, wraps and herbal treatments using a variety of pure ingredients. With Sauna Therapy, enjoying a sauna becomes part of your overall well-being.

“I want to provide you with easy recipes for well-being to try on your own or with friends. The size of the sauna does not matter. Many of these treatments can even be enjoyed without a sauna.”
