Some Sauna etiquette

Sauna etiquette refers to the customs and manners that are considered appropriate when using a sauna. Some general rules of sauna etiquette include:

-Shower before entering the sauna to cleanse yourself and remove any excess dirt or sweat.

-Take a towel to sit on to wipe the sweat off your body, and to use as a cover over your lap.

-Do not drench the sauna rocks with water, instead splash small amounts. Don’t forget to allow all moisture to evaporate off the rocks before adding more.

-Keep conversation to a minimum, as saunas are often used for relaxation and peacefulness.

-Be mindful of the temperature and stay within your comfort level.

-Be quick and quiet when entering and exiting the sauna.

The customs and manners may vary depending on the sauna culture of the place you are visiting. It's always a good idea to observe and follow the norms of the sauna you are visiting.
