Steam saunas are enclosed spaces that are heated with steam. Though temperatures vary, steam rooms are usually kept at around 110°F. Most likely you have seen steam rooms either in the gym or inside a spa. The key to the unique health benefits of the steam saunas is its humidity. Just like dry saunas, a steam room can also improve your health in many ways.
It can significantly promote your cardiovascular health by improving blood circulation, particularly in temperature extremities and even promote healing of any broken skin tissue. Bathing in a steam room can also lower blood pressure, and is the reason why you will feel relax when you stay inside the room for a certain amount of time. Steam saunas are also proven to reduce stress by decreasing the level of your cortisol production. They also create an environment that encourages deep breathing, thus breaking up the congestion inside your sinus.
The key difference between dry saunas and steam saunas is the type of heat that they provide. Dry sauna, as the name implies, uses dry heat, while steam sauna uses steam from boiling water. Steam saunas are proven to be great therapy in treating various illnesses if used properly and not too much. In fact, steam therapy was found to help kids recover from respiratory infections much quicker than those who did not use it.
