The barrel sauna longevity hack

In certain parts of Canada, people often gauge the value of something by comparing it to the cost of a case of beer. On the other hand, in Finland, saunas are used as a benchmark for measuring value. The health benefits of saunas have been well-documented, with a recent study from the University of Jyväskylä, Finland, revealing that combining saunas with exercise can improve heart health and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). The study, which adhered to established exercise guidelines, found that regular sauna use alongside exercise showed promise as a therapeutic option for individuals with lower exercise capacities. With CVD being a major public health concern, the potential of sauna therapy to complement other preventative strategies such as exercise is certainly worth further consideration. Furthermore, the energy efficiency and comfort of a barrel sauna – particularly one with a large dome window – make it an attractive choice for those looking to benefit from sauna therapy. The circular design of barrel saunas allows for even heating and continuous airflow, creating a cozy and comforting environment that feels almost womb-like. Saunas may just be the longevity hack we’ve been looking for!
