No but I recommend starting with 80C and max 100C to be safe, 120C is a bit too hot ![]() Usually I am in sauna around 15-30 mins, so relaxing. | ||

edit: on topic: From what I recall saunas are very very good for your health. The usual rules apply of course: no overexposure. If you look like a prune when you come out, somethings not right (or you're really wrinkley beforehand) | ||

I would lol at the sight, no doubt. The amount of misconceptions people have on this subject is surprising... at least to me. | ||

It's like a hot tub it is relaxing but causes your muscles to get tense. | ||
