Wellness & sauna

You think of Finland when you hear the word "sauna"?

And that’s right, because they are considered the world’s sauna nation par excellence. But did you know that it wasn’t the Scandinavians who invented communal sweating? In fact, it was the people of East Asia. They discovered the beneficial effects of heat more than 1,500 years ago. The Romans followed suit and regularly gathered in the sauna, where important business was discussed, among other things. Finally, people from Finland contributed significantly to the cultivation of the custom. The term “Finnish sauna” still reflects this fact today.

Get the circulation going

At the Residence Saalbach by VAYA you will find in addition to the bio sauna also a Finnish sauna, in which you can get your circulation moving. At the same time, the heat relaxes the muscles and boosts the metabolism. Our immune system is boosted with every sauna session we do, and the hot air improves breathing and improves the appearance of the skin. The positive effects of regular sauna visits are manifold – last but not least, according to studies, the sauna can even prolong your life.
But be careful not to overdo it. Cooling down and adhering to a post-rest period after the sauna are very important. It’s best to rest in our relaxation area and be well hydrated.
