Cold and Flu Prevention with Sauna Usage Possible, Says Spa Owner

Meridian, Idaho ? For thousands of years, saunas have been used as a source of healing and relaxation. Ancient Romans and Greeks may not have had science evidence to support their use, but they understood the many health benefits of steam baths.
Lisa Lizana, owner of Exhale Salon and Med Spa says, ?There are so many wonderful reasons to use saunas, from promoting a more youthful appearance to eliminating toxins, which in turn promotes weight loss. It?s really amazing to see results that people experience with regular use of steam baths. Many people enjoy them for the deep relaxation they feel during and after a session as well as to support their immune systems.?
There is scientific evidence to support the use of saunas, including during cold and flu season, to help the body fight infections. Research shows that they can improve nasal drainage, which helps the body expel germs found in mucus more quickly. The elevated temperatureof a sauna produces a fever-like effect in the body, making it a hostile environment for germs such as the influenza virus.
Eucalyptus added to saunas can enhance health benefits by helping to reduce airway inflammation and removing mucus and toxins from the lungs. By opening the airways and alleviating the pressure on the respiratory system, sauna users are able to breathe easier. Eucalyptus contains plant compounds such as menthol and eucalyptol that allow this plant to assist the body in healing, which is why it has been used for centuries for respiratory ailments.
?Saunas are truly rejuvenating, of the body and the mind. In our fast-paced culture, it is a great relaxation tool to help you slow down, calm your thoughts, and hopefully sleep better at night,? said Lizana.
