Saunas are a fantastic way to unwind, relax muscles, and detoxify your body. However, the intense heat can leave you feeling overly warm once your session is over. Cooling off properly is crucial to restoring your body to a comfortable temperature and nervous system tone to reap the full benefits of your sauna experience.
