Sauna guide
Start with Finnish sauna culture
First visitHow does a Finnish sauna work?
A calm introduction to löyly, etiquette and preparation — without performance pressure or one rigid definition of the right way.
Read guideCultureWhat does löyly really mean?
Löyly is a physical event, an ancient Finno-Ugric word and a way to describe the whole sauna experience — without turning it into a cliché.

SafetyUsing a sauna responsibly
Responsible sauna use is not about enduring heat. It is about adjusting the room to your body, taking breaks and responding early when something feels wrong.

Frequently asked
The questions people ask most about sauna
Can you go to a sauna with a cold or a fever?
A sauna does not treat a cold or shorten one, and a fever already puts the body under strain. If you are ill, postpone the visit and ask a health professional about your own situation.
Who invented the sauna, and is it a Finnish invention?
The sauna has no single inventor: bathing with hot stones and water was known widely across the north in prehistoric times. What is Finnish is what the sauna became here — an everyday, unbroken practice that UNESCO added to its intangible heritage list in 2020.
How many saunas are there in Finland?
There is no exact figure, because saunas are not entered in any register. The most commonly quoted estimate is around three million saunas in a country of roughly 5.6 million people — an estimate, not a count.
How do you behave in a Finnish public sauna?
Shower before you go in, sit on a towel or a mat, ask before throwing more water on the stones, and keep your voice low. A sauna is not an endurance contest: step out whenever you want to.
At what age can a baby go to a sauna?
There is no universal age limit, and it is not something to settle from a web page: an infant regulates heat differently from an adult. Confirm the right time with your child health clinic or a paediatrician.
Does a sauna burn calories, and can you lose weight in one?
The weight you appear to lose in a sauna is fluid lost through sweating, not fat, and it returns as soon as you drink. A sauna is not a weight-loss method.
