Both
saunas and steam rooms are said to be extremely relaxing. The raised
temperature increases circulation and opens the pores of the skin.
Users like to take a cold shower or have a swim after a sauna or
steam bath to rapidly reduce the body temperature and close the
pores. This is said to complete the relaxing and exhilarating effect
of the sauna or steam room.
Saunas
contain a heater inside a timber lined enclosure on which water
is poured at intervals to create the humidity. Saunas operate at
a higher temperature than steam rooms.
