As we enter into a new decade, maNew Year of us are writing our resolutions and dreaming of the possibilities that a brand new year brings. December always brings about a sense of reflection and evaluation, especially regarding how we are going to go about achieving our dreams in the year to come.

Whether it is losing weight, looking after our physical bodies, or promoting a positive mindset, having a family home sauna can be a super convenient way of achieving your New Year goals. Saunas have been popular for thousands of years, with the first-ever hothouses being used by the Mayans over 3000 years ago. In recent years, empirical evidence has shown us how saunas can have a significantly positive effect on our physical and psychological health and wellbeing. Check out our extensive list of the benefits of sauna use and how a family sauna can transform your 2020.

Happy Heart Health

Looking after your heart should always be your number one priority, and there has been a wealth of empirical evidence that shows a correlation between regular sauna use and improved cardiovascular health. Promoting healthy blood flow by opening capillaries and relaxing major muscle groups, some studies have shown that saunas can improve your overall circulation and health. There has even been some evidence to suggest that using a family sauna regularly can help to keep your ticker ticking for longer!

Reduce Stress

We are all fully aware of the impact of stress, and for some, this often feels like a mainstay product of modern life. As a result, some of us may be planning to take a chilled approach as we enter into the New Year. Studies have shown that saunas can boost our natural endorphins, as well as helping to lower systolic and diastolic blood pressure. Plus, the regular doses of relaxation combined with improvements in physical health can also mean that using saunas regularly can improve your sleep pattern. Also, a family sauna adds a social element to the process, providing you with a chance to catch up with your loved ones as you unwind.

If your 2020 resolution is to get fit, it is believed that a large home sauna can help to reduce muscle soreness by increasing circulation and ensuring that the oxygen-rich blood can get to those depleted muscle groups. However, it should be noted that there are some that dispute this effect, with studies regarding DOMS being limited.

Weight Loss

If your goal in 2020 is to lose weight, there is some evidence to suggest that regular sauna use can help you to shift those extra pounds. Some experts suggest that you can lose up to 5lbs per session, but it should be noted that is
