10 Health Benefits of a Sauna
Health Benefit Of Sauna #8: Boost Cardiovascular Function
Our cardiovascular system is essential to our well-being. It carries essential nutrients and oxygen throughout our bodies and we would literally not be able to live without it. The better our cardiovascular system is working, the healthier we are, and the occasional sauna can help in that regard.
A sauna has the effect of dilating the blood vessels and increasing the heart rate. This has a similar effect to exercise in that it trains the heart to work harder and really get the blood pumping around the body. With regular sauna use, you can see improved cardiovascular function in the long-term.
