What is eucalyptus?

Eucalyptus is a plant whose essential oils are known for their fresh, cleansing scent and aroma. Eucalyptol is the main active compound in eucalyptus, and is widely used in respiratory support products and aromatherapy. In the sauna, the scent of eucalyptus is often perceived as clarifying and very calming.

What is menthol?

Menthol is a natural compound obtained from mint plants. It is known for its cooling and refreshing effect, which is felt both on the skin and in the respiratory tract. In the sauna, menthol brings a pleasant contrast to the hot air and body warming, making the sauna experience more intense and refreshing. The effect of Sauna Menthol products is based on pure menthol. This is also associated with the term sauna ice.

How eucalyptus and menthol work together in a sauna

The heat of the sauna effectively releases the aromas of eucalyptus and menthol into the air. When inhaled, these affect the respiratory tract and the senses simultaneously. Eucalyptus supports smooth breathing and menthol adds a cool, refreshing feeling. Together, they create a balanced and deep sauna experience that cleanses the entire body.

Airway support and opening

The combination of eucalyptus and menthol can help to open up a stuffy feeling and make breathing much more pleasant. In a sauna, this is especially felt as a freshness of the nose and respiratory tract. The combination is well suited, for example, after the flu season or when the air feels heavy to breathe. If you want an effective and opening effect, Sauna Menthol Eucalyptus is the right product for you.

A fresh and cleansing atmosphere in the sauna

Eucalyptus brings a clean and natural scent to the sauna, while menthol enhances the feeling of freshness. This combination creates a spa-like atmosphere in the sauna, where breathing feels light and the environment is pleasant. The scent is not heavy, but clear and refreshing.

Recreation and relaxation in the same experience

Menthol refreshes the body and mind, especially during a hot sauna. Eucalyptus, on the other hand, supports calmness and deeper relaxation. Together, these help to move from a busy everyday life to a calmer state and increase the restorative effect of sauna bathing.

Why menthol and eucalyptus are popular sauna scents

Menthol and eucalyptus are natural ingredients that are well suited to sauna culture. They do not overshadow the sauna's own atmosphere, but complement it with their own aromas and nuances. For many, these scents feel more pleasant than artificial (synthetically produced) aromas, and they support sauna bathing as part of well-being.

Sauna tips for using menthol and eucalyptus

Menthol and eucalyptus are always used according to the manufacturer's instructions. A small amount is enough, as the heat of the sauna enhances the effect. The scents should be added to the sauna water and the heater so that they spread evenly throughout the sauna. Conscious breathing deepens the experience and increases relaxation.

Summary of the benefits of eucalyptus and menthol in the sauna

Eucalyptus and menthol support breathing, refresh the body and mind, and enhance the atmosphere of the sauna. The combination makes sauna bathing more than just a thermal experience, adding a sensory-activating and relaxing dimension to it.

Finally

The combination of menthol and eucalyptus is an excellent choice for anyone who wants to deepen their sauna experience in a natural way. Sauna Menthol products are designed to provide a balanced and pleasant fragrance experience that supports both relaxation and rejuvenation. The sauna becomes a moment where body and mind meet in peace.

Sauna cleaning and maintenance: How to keep your sauna in good condition year after year

The cleanliness and good condition of the sauna affect both the quality of the sauna and the sauna experience. Many people remember to throw the sauna, but the daily and regular maintenance of the sauna is easily overlooked. A well-maintained sauna will last for decades and provide a pleasant, healthy and safe sauna environment. When you can maintain your sauna weekly or monthly, you can avoid a major one-time operation. Here is a comprehensive guide to cleaning and caring for your sauna. Why is sauna cleanliness important? Sauna materials accumulate a surprising amount of moisture, sweat salts, dirt and bacteria. If surfaces are allowed to become dirty or moldy, the lifespan of the sauna will be shortened and the quality of the sauna will suffer. Cleanliness also affects the behavior of scents and aromas: when the sauna is clean, menthol crystals and other scents, for example, work more naturally and evenly. Daily cleaning: the foundation for good sauna hygiene After each sauna session, it is a good idea to do a little routine cleaning, which prevents dirt from accumulating and makes it easier to deep clean later. With a little effort, the sauna will stay in good condition. 1. Ventilate the sauna properly Open the door and any vents to allow moisture to escape. Good ventilation prevents mold growth and keeps the structures dry. It is often a good idea to leave the sauna door open after a sauna session, allowing the hot air to spread into the bathroom and act as a drying function. The aromas of the used sauna scents will also evaporate better from the sauna. 2. Rinse the benches and floor Use cool or lukewarm water. Rinsing removes sweat, foot prints and surface dust. In outdoor saunas, rinsing also removes sand and other excess debris from the outside. 3. Check the sauna stones It is advisable to replace crumbling or cloudy stones in a timely manner. High-quality stones improve the softness of the sauna and extend the life of the heater. It is recommended to replace sauna stones every 1-2 years. Weekly cleaning: surface maintenance Weekly cleaning helps keep wooden surfaces in good condition and prevents dirt from absorbing deeper. 1. Wipe the benches with a mild detergent Use a sauna-safe cleaner and a soft brush. Do not use harsh chemicals as they can affect the breathability and scent of the wood. 2. Clean the floors and drain Detergents, dirt and hair accumulate on the floor. A clean floor improves the air quality in the sauna and reduces the risk of bacterial growth. 3. Vacuum or dust Dust affects air quality and the spread of scents. Even a small amount of dust can change the scent of a sauna. Monthly or seasonal deep cleaning Regular, more thorough maintenance will do wonders for the overall appearance and lifespan of your sauna. 1. Washing and possible sanding of benches If dirt or stains have been absorbed into the surface, light sanding will restore the freshness of the wood. Remember to treat the benches with a protective agent intended for saunas afterwards. The benches can also be varnished / recoated, but it is worth consulting a hardware store professional about when it would be a good idea to do this. Treatment will significantly extend the life of the benches. 2. Replacing the sauna stones It is recommended to replace the stones at least once a year, depending on usage. Broken stones can damage the heater and reduce the quality of the sauna. Always remember to check that the heater's heating elements are not touching each other and that there are always enough stones between them. 3. Ventilation check Clean the valves and make sure that the air is circulating properly. Good ventilation affects not only the condition of the structures, but also the feel of the sauna. This is how you keep the sauna's scent world fresh In a clean sauna, scents and aromas work more balanced. For example, Sauna Menthol gives the best refreshing effect when the air quality in the sauna is good, the air circulates and the surfaces are not caked. Use sauna scents correctly Add the fragrances to the sauna water, never directly to the heater. Correct dosage ensures a smooth and pleasant aroma without any pungent or bitter notes. Change the sauna scent according to the situation The use of refreshing scents such as mint, menthol and eucalyptus is emphasized in a clean, fresh sauna. Relaxing scents, on the other hand, come into their own when the sauna is drier and warmer. Summary A clean sauna is long-lasting, safe and pleasant. Daily, weekly and monthly routines keep surfaces in good condition and improve the quality of the sauna experience. Good ventilation, regular cleaning and proper handling of materials create a foundation for a sauna where sauna scents and menthol crystals work in the best possible way.

What is an essential oil and how is it made?

Essential oils have become very popular in the world of sauna products, well-being and natural fragrances in recent years. Alongside Sauna Menthol, they form an important part of building a modern sauna experience. This article will go over what essential oils are, how they are made and what to consider when using them in a sauna. What is an essential oil? An essential oil is a highly concentrated and strongly fragrant extract isolated from a plant, containing the plant's natural aromatic compounds. It is not a fatty oil, despite what the name suggests. Essential oils are volatile, and their scent intensifies in heat, which is why they are perfect for a sauna. Essential oils are made using huge amounts of plant material. Up to a kilo of plant material can be used to make a single 10 ml bottle, which explains the high concentration and potency of the oils. Sauna Menthol sauna scent is also officially listed as an essential oil, even though its form is solid sauna ice. What are essential oils used for in a sauna? In the sauna, essential oil creates a pleasant, natural scent environment. It is often used in combination with menthol to create a fresh and invigorating sauna experience. Applications include: Sauna scents and aromas to add to sauna water Fragrance blends used in sauna treatments Relaxation and recreation rituals Air freshening in the sauna room and bath rooms Essential oils are so powerful that they should be used with caution and always according to instructions. How are essential oils made? The method of making essential oils directly affects the purity, quality and price of the scent. Below are the most common methods. Steam distillation Steam distillation is the most widely used method in the world. Plant material is placed in a distillation column through which steam is passed. The steam extracts the aromatic compounds of the plant and transports them to a condenser, where the steam condenses into water. The oil separates on the surface of the water and is collected. This method is used for oils from eucalyptus, mint and conifers, for example. Cold pressing Citrus peels are not usually distilled because their aromas are sensitive to heat. Therefore, their oils are produced by cold pressing. The surface cells of the peel are mechanically broken and the oil is pressed out. The end result is a very natural and fresh-smelling oil, such as lemon, lime and orange oil. Solvent extraction and absolutes Some plants, such as jasmine and other delicate flowers, cannot withstand heat at all. In these cases, solvent extraction is used, in which the aromatic compounds are gently removed with solvents. The end result is a highly fragrant substance called an absolute, which is used in perfumes, for example. CO₂ extraction CO₂ extraction using supercritical carbon dioxide is technically the cleanest and highest quality method. In pressurized form, CO₂ acts as a solvent that captures the aromas of the plant. When the pressure is released, the carbon dioxide burns back to gas, leaving the aromatic compounds behind. The end product is very close to the original scent of the fresh plant. How to use essential oils safely in a sauna? Because essential oils are highly concentrated, they should never be poured directly onto a heater undiluted. They may ignite, evaporate too much, or cause irritation. Safe uses in the sauna: Add oil to the sauna water only a few drops at a time Avoid skin contact without dilution. Only use oils intended for sauna use. Do not use cosmetic grade essential oils in saunas. Test a small amount on first use to check for fragrance sensitivity. The essential oil works well with menthol: menthol brings a fresh feeling of coolness, while the oil complements the aroma of the sauna. Summary Essential oils are natural, powerful and versatile fragrances that can be used in a sauna to enhance and enrich the sauna experience. They are produced using a variety of methods, from steam distillation to CO₂ extraction, and each method produces a slightly different scent profile. When used correctly and safely, the oils pair perfectly with Sauna Menthol and make your home sauna a luxurious experience.
