The variety of baths is amazing. Let us consider the most common classification of baths and saunas - per the country in which each specific type has been created and is most prevalent.

Russian bath

Russian bath - a direct descendant of the ancient Slavic bath. Russian bath is based on the technology of wet steam - water is splashed in the right amount into the furnace-heated stones and is evaporated. It increases the overall humidity in the room to 35-50% at a temperature of 50-80 degrees Celsius.

One of the symbols of the Russian wood-fired bath is a bath broom. The majority use traditional birch brooms, but there are others - linden, oak, nettle.

Brooms increase health characteristics of the bath, have massage and tonic effect. After the bath, many people resort to contrast cooling the body, drenched with cold water or rubbing the skin with snow or ice.

Turkish bath (Hamam)

Turkish bath (Hamam) differs from the preceding type of the bath with interior, as well as the characteristics of steaming. This type of the bath is perfect for people who cannot stand too high temperature - indoors steam bath is rarely hotter than 50 degrees Celsius.
