Sauna FAQs
Frequently asked questions about appropriate
use - before, during, and after a sauna session

How many types of sauna are there?
Our hotel has a bio sauna and Finnish sauna. In addition, there is an aromatic steam bath, an infrared cabin, and a saltwater grotto.

Should I take a cool shower after a sauna session?
Positive effects have been attributed to a cold shower after a sauna session. It stimulates the metabolism, immune system, and breathing and has a beneficial effect on your subjective well-being. Of course, everyone must decide for themselves if their circulation can tolerate the quick cool down.

Can people with circulation problems use the sauna?
For these cases, we have our bio sauna. It is mainly a low temperature sauna that is especially suited for sauna beginners and people with circulation problems.

I have respiratory problems, what kind of sauna do you recommend?
For respiratory problems, I would recommend our aromatic steam bath or our saltwater grotto. The steam bath includes an ideal combination of warmth and humidity and is cleansing and nourishing. The saltwater mist in the grotto creates a salty ocean climate that is very helpful for respiratory diseases.
