Saunas originated in Finland over 2,000 years ago and have long been an essential part of Finnish culture. Traditionally, saunas were small, wood-heated rooms built from logs where people would gather to bathe, relax, and enjoy the health benefits of the intense dry heat. The Finnish sauna tradition emphasizes both physical and mental well-being, and saunas were historically used for everything from cleansing to childbirth. Over time, the concept of the sauna spread to other parts of the world, but Finland remains the cultural home of the sauna, where it is deeply ingrained in daily life.
