Is sauna good for you ? and why ?

Can be.: Sauna helps you sweat which is one of the ways your body gets rid of toxins. Sweating is an important part of being healthy and sauna can help with that. Sauna is not appropriate for everyone however and you should discuss it with your physician. Take care!
