"Regular sauna use of at least 3 times per week has been shown to lower blood pressure and enhance cardiovascular and brain health."
A 25-year study conducted by researchers at the University of Eastern Finland discovered that regular sauna sessions reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases and sudden cardiac death. In a more recent experimental study, they found that 30 minute sauna sessions significantly reduced blood pressure and improved vascular compliance, offering benefits similar to medium intensity workouts.
