You’ve wisely avoided sleeping pills, but it seems as if you’ve tried almost everything else to get a better night’s sleep. You’ve reduced your intake of caffeine and alcohol. You’ve made sure you’re in bed at the same time every night. You’ve stopped watching TV or reading right before bedtime. You’ve made your bedroom as quiet and as dark as possible. Despite all your efforts, however, you’re still having difficulty falling or staying asleep.

To make matters worse, you’re now so worried about not being able to sleep well that you just can’t relax.

Maybe the time has come for you to try soaking in a sauna before heading off to bed.

In many circles around the world, the home sauna is held in high esteem for its amazing ability to soothe and relax the human body inside and out. The comforting heat of a sauna works to induce healthy perspiration, assist respiratory function, benefit blood pressure, stimulate endorphins, cleanse skin, and relieve sore, tired muscles. By raising your body temperature in a sauna bath right before bedtime, you compel it to normalize itself afterwards, and it’s this temperature readjustment following the sauna bath that helps to improve the quality of your sleep.

Of course, other effects of the heat bath can certainly contribute to improvements in your sleep. Regular sauna bathers routinely report that soaking in a hot sauna helps them rid their minds of the anxieties, frustrations and worries that may have been plaguing them prior to bathing. And by helping to alleviate any existing physical pain like headaches, muscle strain or joint stiffness, a sauna bath can effectively disarm many of the aggravations that might have impeded truly restful sleep.

Home saunas are available in many styles and sizes. Whether it’s a do-it-yourself sauna kit, a modular sauna unit, a traditional Finnish sauna or a far infrared heat therapy room, the sauna you purchase should have a noticeably positive impact on the quality of your sleep as well as on your physical and mental well-being.
