The sauna in the hotel is an excellent way to relax, unwind and rejuvenate, both after a long day at work and after intensive sightseeing. If you are planning a stay at Hotel 500 Stryków, learn the rules and practical tips that will allow you to make the most of your time in our wellness area. Although many guests gladly use the sauna, some people still wonder how to do it properly, what rules apply, and how to best take care of comfort and safety.
The sauna is a unique relaxation place, a room with elevated temperature, usually from 60 to 100°C, where one stays for health and regeneration purposes. Under the influence of heat, the body starts to sweat intensively, which supports natural cleansing processes, improves circulation, and helps relax tense muscles.
Although the principle of using the sauna seems simple – enter, warm up the body, and leave – it is worth learning the full course of a session and practical tips that will increase comfort and safety during your stay.
Before entering the sauna, it is worth properly preparing your body and mind:
If you have no experience, stick to a simple scheme. This is the best way to enjoy all the benefits that the hotel sauna offers:
1. Preparation – hygiene and relaxation
Start with a shower and drying your skin. This is an important stage that allows pores to open freely, and your body to react faster to heat.
2. First session
Begin with a shorter stay – 8 to 12 minutes in the sauna is enough. Choose a position comfortable for you – you can sit or lie down. Breathe calmly and listen to your body's reactions.
3. Cooling down the body
After leaving the sauna, you should lower your body temperature – best done under a cold shower or in a cool water basin. This is a key stage that stimulates circulation and allows the body to regenerate.
4. Rest and regeneration
After cooling down, find a moment to relax. 10–15 minutes of rest will help normalize your heart rate, stabilize breathing, and prepare your body for the next session.
5. Repeat the cycle
A full session usually consists of 2–3 cycles of heating, cooling, and resting. The entire process should not last longer than 90 minutes. Listen to your body and do not overexert yourself, especially if you are a beginner.
6. Additional recommendations
Regular visits to the sauna are a way to comprehensively support health and well-being:
It is important to remember, however, that people with heart problems, hypertension, or chronic diseases should consult a doctor before using the sauna.
