Menthol's refreshing effect on the respiratory tract and recovery in the sauna

For many Finns, a sauna is a place where the body and mind can take a break from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. In a sauna, people relax, recover after exercise and calm down before going to sleep. One of the most popular additional elements of sauna bathing is menthol, whose refreshing and cooling effect is felt both in the respiratory tract and throughout the body. But why does menthol feel so special, and how can it be utilized in the sauna in the best possible way? What makes menthol unique? Menthol is a natural compound that is obtained, for example, from mint. Its characteristic property is a cooling and refreshing feeling, although it does not actually lower the body temperature. This is because menthol activates nerve endings that transmit the message of “coolness” to the brain. Therefore, it brings relief to, for example, the respiratory tract and gives a refreshing effect throughout the sauna session, making it longer lasting and more enjoyable. Therefore, it can be said that menthol is an excellent sauna scent. Menthol in the sauna – relief for breathing The heat of a sauna combined with the fresh menthol can feel particularly pleasant in the respiratory tract. Many people find that menthol mixed with steam opens up congestion and makes breathing easier. It is not a medicine, but it can act as a gentle aid, for example during flu season or allergy season . When menthol is used in sauna water, a pleasant sauna scent is created that fills the entire sauna with its freshness. This makes sauna bathing an experience that refreshes both body and mind. Menthol is also called sauna ice as a sauna product. Recovery after exercise Menthol not only refreshes the respiratory tract, but it can also support the body's recovery . The heat of the sauna relaxes muscles, improves blood circulation and increases metabolism. When combined with the cooling sensation of menthol, many people feel lighter and more refreshed after a sauna session. This makes menthol an excellent supplement for fitness enthusiasts , athletes or active people. Practical tips for using sauna crystals in the sauna Sauna ice with menthol: Add menthol crystals to a bowl that can stand on the stones of the sauna and let it release its fresh scent with the steam little by little. Sauna fragrance and steam crystals: Convenient options for mixing, which dissolve in the steam water and provide a consistent scent. Try different strengths: Everyone experiences menthol differently – start with a small amount and gradually increase until you find your own balance. Why choose menthol sauna products? Menthol brings a whole new dimension to sauna bathing. It refreshes the breath, supports recovery and makes sauna bathing a holistic wellness experience . Whether it's relaxing on a weekday evening, a weekend cottage sauna or recovering after a sports performance, the scent of menthol makes the experience fresh and memorable.

Tips for safely dispensing menthol crystals in a home sauna – 5 tips for first-time users

Menthol crystals (sauna ice) are an effective and natural way to bring a refreshing scent and a respiratory-opening effect to saunas. More and more saunas have incorporated menthol crystals into their sauna routine, but for those trying the product for the first time, it is good to know a few important things about the correct and safe use of this sauna scent. The undeniably high-quality menthol crystals offered by Sauna Menthol are made using 100% natural methods and do not contain any additives. Here are five practical tips to ensure a successful and pleasant sauna experience with menthol. 1. Start slowly – less is more Menthol crystals are very strong. Just a few crystals (about 1-3cm crystal size) are enough to bring a distinctly fresh and cooling feeling to your sauna. Too much can cause irritation to the eyes and breathing, so start with a small amount and increase the potency as needed. Menthol crystals are very strong even in small amounts. 2. Do not place menthol crystals directly on the coils Menthol evaporates quickly and heats up strongly, so it should never be placed directly on the heating elements of an electric heater . In addition, the essential oil can ignite on the heater's heating elements. When placed on heater stones, the crystals can evaporate too suddenly when melted, which can have an unpleasantly strong effect. We recommend always adding menthol crystals to the heater with water. Instead, you can: Dissolve a small amount of menthol crystals in a steam bucket of hot water and pour the mixture onto the stones. Uses a separate aroma cup where you place the crystals with water to gradually evaporate. Dissolve the menthol in a larger sauna water container and use it when pouring the sauna. 3. Store menthol crystal properly Keep menthol crystals in a closed container, at room temperature and out of reach of children and pets. The crystals are a pure natural product, but their powerful effect can surprise you if handled carelessly. The melting point of menthol crystals is 41 degrees, so do not take them with the package to the sauna. 4. Avoid direct skin contact in large quantities Menthol is not dangerous, but it can cause a cooling or even burning sensation on sensitive skin. If necessary, use a small spoon to dispense the crystals, especially if you have dry or sensitive skin. You can also pour the sauna ice menthol crystals directly from the bag and sprinkle them into the sauna water outside the sauna or quickly in the sauna. 5. Remember ventilation and consider the group Menthol affects everyone in the sauna. If there are children, the elderly or people with asthma, discuss its use in advance. Good ventilation and careful dosage ensure that everyone enjoys the sauna experience. However, the menthol scent evaporates quickly and does not leave unpleasant odors or residue on the sauna stones for a long time. So you can use it several times a week without worry. Summary Menthol is a powerful, natural and effective addition to saunas when used correctly. It is easy to use when you follow a few simple basic principles: dose in moderation and ensure a pleasant experience for all sauna users. Saunamenthol.fi offers high-quality menthol crystals and ready-to-use sauna products that help you take your sauna experience to a new level – safely and naturally.

Nestemäinen vai kiinteä saunatuoksu – Mitä eroa niillä on?

Liquid or solid sauna fragrance – What's the difference?

Sauna scents make a sauna experience an experience. They add atmosphere to the sauna, freshen your breath and even offer therapeutic effects. But with scents available in different forms – especially liquid and solid – many sauna users wonder which option is better for their own use. In this blog post, we compare liquid and solid sauna scents. Both options work great, but their differences may affect which one is right for your sauna moment. 1. Composition and method of use Liquid sauna fragrances are typically fragrances mixed with essential oils or a water base. They are added to the sauna water a few drops at a time. Solid sauna fragrances , such as menthol crystals , are substances in crystallized form that are added either directly to the sauna heater or to the sauna water. Practical difference: Liquid fragrance usually requires careful mixing with water. Solid sauna ice crystals may dissolve more slowly, but are very effective even in small quantities. 2. Power and scent intensity Menthol crystals are very pure and powerful, often only 1-3 crystals are enough for the entire sauna session. The scent spreads quickly and remains consistent for a longer time. Many people experience the refreshing effect of menthol from the first breath during sauna bathing. Liquid sauna scents can be milder or evaporate quickly, and they often need to be added several times during the sauna session. Many people find liquid sauna scents to be too mild in places and give feedback that they have to be used constantly and a lot, which becomes expensive in the long run. Which one is better? If you want a strong, fresh, and long-lasting scent , menthol crystals are a more effective option. If you're looking for a softer, more subtle vibe , a liquid fragrance may be better. 3. Ease of use and storage Solid fragrances (like Sauna menthol crystals) are long-lasting, easy to store, and very effective. They don't require large amounts of use, and they retain their effectiveness for a long time when stored in a closed container or airtight bag. Liquid fragrances can evaporate over time, and bottles can leak if not stored carefully in an upright position. The pros and cons: Menthol crystals : long shelf life, no leakage, precise dosing Liquid fragrances : require mixing, more sensitive to light and heat 4. Applications and atmosphere Menthol crystals are especially popular in saunas where you want to: makes breathing easier have a cooling effect on the skin create a fresh, cleansing atmosphere Liquid fragrances may be suitable for saunas that want to: floral, citrus or woody scents subtle world of smells mix several scents together There are many different types of sauna scents and everyone is sure to find the right version for their sauna. By trying and testing, you usually find out which sauna scent is best for you. Sauna ice, or menthol crystals, differ from traditional sauna scents not only because of their effectiveness, but also because of their long-lasting effect.

5 reasons to use menthol in the sauna – from respiratory relaxation

A Finnish sauna is a place to relax, cleanse and recharge your batteries. Many sauna users like to complement the experience with various sauna scents, one of the most popular of which is menthol. Menthol crystals have quickly become popular among sauna scents, and for good reason, as menthol not only smells fresh, but also brings many tangible health benefits to the sauna experience. Here are five good reasons to include menthol in your next sauna session. 1. Clears the airways One of the most well-known effects of menthol is its ability to open up blocked airways very effectively. Menthol crystals (sauna ice) dissolve in hot sauna water and create a refreshing vapor that helps you breathe easier. This makes menthol especially popular during flu season or when you feel congested or have allergy symptoms. Many people experience relief after just the first breath. 2. Cools and refreshes the body Although the sauna itself is a hot and sweaty place, the menthol sauna scent provides a contrast. It creates a cool feeling on the skin, which invigorates and makes you feel pleasantly fresh. This cooling effect occurs when menthol activates the skin's cold receptors. Many athletes and active people use menthol in the sauna to support recovery precisely because of this property. Menthol is also used as part of sports performance in various forms such as sprays, creams or simply by inhaling it. 3. Relaxes the body and mind The scent of menthol also affects your mood. Its freshness combined with the soothing effect of the sauna heat helps relieve stress and tension. Breathing deepens, muscles relax and the mind calms down. Menthol brings a spa-like atmosphere to the sauna, making an ordinary sauna session a more luxurious and holistic experience. 4. A natural and effective alternative to synthetic fragrances Many sauna scents contain synthetic ingredients or strong fragrances that are not suitable for everyone. Menthol Crystals are pure, crystallized menthol (Mentha Arvensis) – a natural substance extracted from the leaves of the beach mint. It is effective even in small amounts and does not contain additives or artificial fragrances. This makes it an ideal alternative for those with sensitive noses or those who prefer natural cosmetics. 5. Easy and economical to use Only a small amount of menthol crystals is needed at a time – usually 1–3 small crystals per sauna water are enough. A small bag is enough for several sauna sessions and the dosage can be adjusted to your preference. The crystals can be added either directly to the water or used in a separate dispenser to achieve a consistent effect. This makes menthol an easy and cost-effective way to upgrade your sauna experience to a new level. It is an excellent sauna scent. Summary Using menthol, or sauna ice, in a sauna is much more than just a scent – ​​it is a holistic experience that supports breathing, refreshes the body, relaxes the mind and brings natural luxury to your sauna evening. It is suitable for both traditional wood-burning saunas and electric heaters and can also be combined with other sauna scents. If you haven't tried Sauna Menthol sauna ice in your sauna yet, your next sauna session is the perfect time to start.

How often should you visit a sauna?

Sauna bathing is almost a given for Finns – part of everyday life, celebration and well-being. But many people wonder: how many times a week is it good to go to the sauna and how long should you stay in the sauna at a time to get the best health benefits? And is it possible to go to the sauna too much? In this blog post, we will delve into the optimal amount of sauna time, ideal duration, and the well-being effects of sauna bathing – and we will explain how Sauna Menthol sauna scent can make your sauna experience even more refreshing and effective. How many times a week should you go to the sauna? According to research, the best benefits of sauna bathing are achieved when you visit the sauna 2–4 ​​times a week . For example, research from the University of Eastern Finland shows that regular sauna bathing can reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, memory disorders and even reduce the risk of premature death. Even if you only go to the sauna once a week, you will still benefit, but more frequent sauna visits seem to have even greater health benefits. However, the most important thing is to listen to your body and find a rhythm that suits you. How long should you spend in the sauna at a time? The ideal duration of sauna bathing varies from person to person, but on average, 15–20 minutes at a time is a good amount of time for one sauna session. Many people do 2–3 sessions, with a cool-down in between. The sauna is not meant to be hot, but to relax. If you feel uncomfortable, you should stop and rest. A good rule of thumb is: use the sauna as much as you feel comfortable, but avoid staying in the heat too long if you are tired, dehydrated or sick. The benefits of sauna bathing – why is it worth going to the sauna regularly? Regular sauna bathing brings numerous health benefits, some of which are already known traditionally and some of which have been scientifically studied: 1. Relaxes the body and mind: The heat of a sauna relieves stress, lowers blood pressure and calms the nervous system. For many, the sauna is the most important moment of relaxation of the day. 2. Promotes blood circulation and metabolism: Heat dilates blood vessels and speeds up metabolism, which helps eliminate waste products from the body. 3. Supports Heart Health: Regular sauna users benefit from a reduced risk of heart disease. 4. Relieves muscle and joint pain: Heat relaxes muscles and can relieve various aches and pains. 5. Improves sleep quality: Many people sleep better on sauna days. The heat and subsequent cooling of the body support the natural sleep rhythm. Can you go to the sauna too much? Although sauna bathing is healthy, excessive sauna bathing can be stressful on the body – especially if it is combined with dehydration, excessively hot temperatures, or poor recovery. If you are using the sauna more than five times a week and feel tired, it is worth checking the amount and duration of sauna bathing.

Sauna ice, sauna crystal, steam crystal, menthol crystal - A great product has many names

What is sauna ice? – Cool freshness for saunas The Finnish sauna is full of tradition – but also constant renewal. One of the most interesting innovations of recent years is sauna ice : a refreshingly cooling, fragrant and easy-to-use way to bring a new experience to your sauna session. Leave traditional sauna scents aside for a moment and try Sauna Menthol sauna ice. Sauna ice – what is it? Sauna ice is an ice-like product containing crystallized menthol (mint oil), which when melted releases a refreshing sauna scent into the air. The product is placed in hot sauna water, thrown on the heater where it gently melts with the sauna – just like a traditional sauna scent, but with a cold twist and a completely new style. In some contexts, sauna ice is also referred to as sauna crystal , especially when it is a crystalline structure in the form of pure menthol. This name refers to its visually appealing and natural form – like frozen freshness amidst the heat of the sauna. Why try sauna ice? Sauna ice combines the best elements of a Finnish sauna: naturalness, simplicity and a powerful sensory experience. The cool freshness of menthol is felt in the breath, on the skin and in the mind – the perfect counterbalance to hot steam baths. Using sauna ice is simple Take 1-3 approximately 0.5cm crystals from the bag and add to the hot sauna water to dissolve. Wait for the crystals to dissolve properly (the melting point of menthol is 41 degrees) Take a steam bath and enjoy the cooling, long-lasting effect of sauna ice. If you don't feel anything, increase the dosage slightly next time. Fragrant steam brings new energy – especially at the end of a long day or in the middle of flu season. Many people find that menthol opens the airways and relaxes the body effectively. Modern sauna at its best Sauna ice is a great example of how you can bring new dimensions to traditions without losing the original atmosphere. It is suitable for both home saunas and cottage saunas and is a great gift for the sauna enthusiast who has "already tried everything".
