Sauna Habit
A sauna habit is regular heat exposure that may support cardiovascular health and relaxation when hydrated and medically appropriate.
A sauna habit is regular heat exposure—often fifteen to twenty minutes at comfortable temperatures—linked in population studies to cardiovascular and recovery benefits when hydration and medical clearance are in place. It supports relaxation and heat acclimation but does not replace exercise.
Cool down gradually and avoid alcohol before sessions.
