What are the advantages of using Thermowood to build a sauna? Thermowood is wood that has been subjected to a heat treatment process that involves heating the wood to high temperatures (usually between 200-220°C) in the absence of oxygen. This process changes the chemical and physical properties of the wood, making it more durable and resistant to decay. Some potential advantages of using Thermowood in a sauna include:
Increased durability: The heat treatment process makes Thermowood more resistant to decay, rot, and insect damage, so it may last longer than untreated wood in a damp, humid environment like a sauna.
Improved stability: The heat treatment process also changes the wood’s cellular structure, making it less prone to swelling and shrinking, which can improve its stability and reduce the risk of warping or cracking.
Enhanced appearance: The heat treatment process can also change the colour and texture of the wood, giving it a more uniform and attractive appearance.
Increased resistance to fire: Thermowood has a higher ignition temperature and a lower rate of flame spread than untreated wood, which makes it safer to use in a sauna.
Sustainability: Depending on the source of the wood and the production process, Thermowood may be a more sustainable choice than untreated wood, as it uses less energy and generates fewer emissions during the production process.

Outdoor Barrel Sauna – HEALTH BENEFITS:
ENHANCED IMMUNE SYSTEM – A SAUNA doesn’t just help get impurities out; it also helps your body strengthen it’s immune system. As your core temperature increases, your body is tricked into believing that you have a fever, so it kicks up its production of white blood cells. Using a sauna is one way to decrease your chances of getting knocked off your feet by cold or flu.
INCREASED BLOOD CIRCULATION – This happens because the heat causes your heart to beat faster, and your blood vessels to widen. This helps blood make its way around your body much more freely.
RELIEVES STRESS – The heat your expose to in a sauna will increase your heart rate which also increases the release of endorphins. These ‘feel good’ chemicals help you relax and feel happier in yourself.
PAIN RELIEF – Being immersed in a pocket of hot air is good therapy for sore joints and achy muscles. For those who suffer from arthritis or other painful ailments, a sauna can be a good way to find relief; for those who live an active, physically demanding lifestyle, a sauna is a good way to reward your body for doing everything you require of it.
CALORIE BURN AND WEIGHT LOSS – Sitting in a hot environment causes an aerobic effect: your heart rate increases which causes your metabolism to rise which prompts your body to burn more calories.
