RULES OF USE
The sauna can be used by anyone who can reach it.
An important element of using the Russian banya is to abide by general rules of using any sauna. The best time for using the Russian banya is the evening, when we have already eaten and want to rest or support our digestive system. You must remember to take a cold shower and then dry your body before entering the sauna. The Russian banya should be used without clothes (or with a towel) because all types of swimsuits can negatively affect the whole process. Also remember to put the towel under the body to avoid skin burns.
First, enter the heated up banya and heat up your body for several minutes (like with everything, not too much!).
Then leave the banya and gradually cool your body in cold water, e.g. the Krutynia river located nearby.
The next stage is rest, during which your body temperature should get back to normal. Repeat the whole cycle 3-5 times. At the end, cool and dry your whole body
The sauna removes anger and dries up the bile accumulated in our bodies throughout the day.
