In the early summer of 2022, Iglucraft&#039;s sales team launched a game-changing solution in the world of customer relations, allowing to sell tiny houses and saunas more successfully and in a more customer-friendly fashion worldwide. &quot;The solution, developed in cooperation with AVAR Agency and with the support of EAS (Enterprise Estonia), has already been positively received by many customers. The initial three-month launch period has shown that the new solution has brought thousands of visits to our virtual showroom as well as website, and new sales of saunas and huts,&quot; Villu Valm, Sales Director of Iglucraft, revealed.This new solution, the like of which has so far only been used in Estonia in the field of selling new real estate developments, works on three levels: a 3D view of the products, a virtual showroom on the website, and a virtual reality experience through 3D glasses.

The Virtual Showroom application on the website allows the customer, by filling out a contact form, to enter an Iglupark, a village made of Iglucraft products, whilst in the middle of nature.  In the setting one can familiarise with Iglucraft huts, saunas and offices - inside and out, as well as get a perfect idea of their actual dimensions and additional aspects. The experience can be found on Iglucraft&#039;s website at: <a href="https://showroom.iglucraft.com/">https://showroom.iglucraft.com/</a>&quot;Commonly, the customer is not able to comprehend what the feeling is really like inside the product, simply looking at a photo or a video, nor is it easy to translate the dimensions in the way we wish. We still come across situations where we have shared photos, videos, and drawings with the client, but once the client enters the house in person, they are surprised to find that everything is much more spacious than they had imagined,&quot; says Valm.  The third feature, 3D glasses, allows Iglucraft&#039;s sales team to take all the products with them to the other side of the world. &quot;Our sales managers go to customer meetings all over Europe, and as of this year, also in the US. Based on our experience, we can say that as the customer has a better understanding of the product, the sales cycle is shorter, and the need to invite the customer to Iglupark in Estonia to see the products is reduced,&quot; added Valm.While the showroom app on the website helps to reach new leads, the 3D glasses and the reality experienced there makes it easier to close sales. Without exception, the 3D experience has brought out a powerful emotion in everyone. As this is a new solution in our industry, most of the time, this encounter is also our customers&#039; first virtual reality experience of their lifetime. This excitement and the wow-effect are powerful ice-breakers and make contact with the potential client much more casual, yet stronger.Another advantage of using the virtual showroom as a sales tool is that it enables to sell interior design that will not yet be ready, for example, for another six months. Solutions created in collaboration with a designer can be made visible to the customer today, even though production has the capacity to produce the solution at a later time. So, sales-wise, we are virtually ahead of time.In addition to sales, the virtual showroom is an indispensable and innovative marketing tool. &quot;If it seems like you are hitting a wall at any point, it&#039;s not the case. The more the privacy settings of different phone operating systems inhibit advertising on social media platforms, the more necessary new clever solutions are to generate leads. A new platform is a solution for the coming years to help engage in a dialogue with important contacts, regardless of what is happening in the operating system landscape. It will also be possible to measure customer behaviour and interest in different products in the &#039;back room&#039; of the showroom, which is also a new and exciting addition, in the views of marketing and product development.&quot;

Summer is the season of greenery—plants peak at their vitality and vigour in the full aromas and juices they extract. Over the millennia, humankind has developed relationships with plants, discovering their most positive effects. Likewise, we use their arsenal of chemistry for our benefit, healing, and sensory experiences.Summer is always the best time to make sauna whisks and harvest herbs, apart from conifers, which can be used to make whisks all year round. The most widely used trees to make sauna whisks are birch, oak, maple, linden, and juniper bushes, among which various herbs such as mint, angelica, blackcurrant, sage, and rosemary, amongst others whose pleasant aromas and &#039;goods&#039; can be enjoyed. For herbs that are for imminent use in the sauna ritual, it is appropriate to use any herbs that are mature enough not to fall apart at first contact with heat and the body. Whisks for longer preservation, one must select more carefully.Birch tree twigs are best to pick between the summer solstice and mid-July. Make sure that the birch leaf has not been feasted on by bugs and is not yet blooming.Linden twigs are at their best during flowering. The tantalizing fragrance of the blossom is preserved even by deep freezing and skilfully drying them. Moreover, the herb is said to have a joint pain relieving effect. Therefore, it is wise to pick it during flowering so that sauna aficionados can also take advantage of its therapeutic scent.Now, oak and maple are more resistant. The best time to collect them for preservation purposes is from the summer solstice to the end of July. Watch out for pest damage on the leaves, which becomes more frequent as the summer progresses and can significantly reduce the quality of the herb.Whisking oneself with a choice of oak will rebalance the flow of energies in the body, improving mood and sleep. Oak can also help in cases of obesity and high blood pressure.The branches of hazel trees make a fine companion to the birch twigs when one wants to invigorate the spirit or ward off skin diseases. Hazel combined with elk hemp has a powerful and zestful effect. Soak the whisks in water and brew an infusion in a sit-in bath. It has a soothing impact on prostate issues.A juniper whisk stimulates the blood circulation of the skin, and its scent is good for the respiratory system. After the juniper, you can gently stroke yourself with a compress made of a more common choice of wood (whisker) to lull the skin. Juniper must be freshly plucked for immediate use, as the thorns tend to fall off quickly, often already within a day or two.---The whisks should always be dried in a warm, dry, well-ventilated room. Avoid excessive humidity, draughts, and direct sunlight. The newly plucked plant should have all cells alive and full of water. If the water is released too slowly, the active substances may decompose or become toxic due to the ferments produced. Excessive humidity also encourages the growth and development of mould and micro-organisms, which can render the herb unusable. On the other hand, excessive exposure to sunlight causes the plant to lose its natural colouring and significantly depletes it from its active substances. The soaking process is to be done to one’s liking. If you prefer a more rough and prickly whisker with a more intense scent, you can leave it to soak in the lukewarm water for 3-4 hours. For more delicate skin, the branches can be softened by keeping the temperature of the soaking water at a level where it is tolerable to put one&#039;s hand in for a few seconds without a burning sensation.Methods of awakening dried whisks vary drastically – it depends on whom you ask. Some prefer a quicker ‘wake-up’ in hot water (about 50°) for half an hour or slightly longer, if necessary. Others prefer a milder, longer-lasting alternative, in cool or room-temperature water for about 5-6 hours, after which (before whisking) the whisk is either gently steamed over a hot stove or allowed to stand in hotter water (50-60°C) for a minute or two. In either case, it is important that the leaves are soft before use. The latter also determines the duration of the revival process.Both methods have their individual advantages. I, personally, am committed to the latter, purely based on a gut feeling. Happy herbalising! (Paraphrasing, the Estonian classic film &quot;Men, don&#039;t cry&quot;)

The know-how of making sauna whisks

I must say that when I was first asked to write about the best herbs used for saunas, it left me baffled… having an affair so close to the topic in question, I might struggle to encapsulate all my knowledge around it. I&#039;ll try. Even as a small boy, going to the sauna with my father, my grandpop, we back then used birch. That&#039;s why we had a traditional annual outing to the country when the leaves were mature and clinging tightly to the branches but had not yet been feasted to bits by insects. Depending on the spring and weather, it usually happened around or a little time before the Midsummer day in June. We handpicked just the &#039;right&#039; birch branches with good leaf density but not too fine, coarse, or bristly to get a fluffy and shaped bunch. There should not have been significant insect damage to the leaves, or they could have started to bloom.To hold the shape, a few stronger branches became the &quot;backbone&quot; in the middle, surrounded by the thinnest branches, the richest in leaves which gave the whisk its density. To wrap it up, the outer layer branches had an &quot;average&quot; coarseness to hold the shape.Now, the real trick was to find just the right coarseness and density of branches to fill in the thinnest spots that inevitably occurred, so it would be fluffy but solid enough not to fall apart. Next, the leaves had to be removed from the bottom of the whisk so that the branches would hold together nice and densely, and the wreath would sit well in the hand. A lot of practice went into getting the right fluffiness, &quot;just right&quot; tips: even length at the top so that none of the twigs stuck out too much. The bottom end was usually cut straight with an axe. Later, with practice, the cut of the lower end was such that the ends of the twigs would remain as sharp as a block of pencil, which would be a good way of &#039;puncturing&#039; the nerve endings on the soles of the feet during the whisking massage, as if &#039;touching&#039; the organs at the other end of the nerve, thus acting as a &#039;wakening&#039;, making the body more receptive to the sauna procedures.Many years later, the wicked ways of fate turned my affair with the sauna even more profound. I started to use oak and linden in my whisks. I don&#039;t remember exactly why or how, but I most probably found relevant references in literature and/or by communicating with other sauna zealots. By abandoning the inveterated pattern of birch being the central mediator of sauna massage linked to family traditions, I opened the door to a closer relationship with herbs and plants. Hereby, I can give you some advice on the use of herbs in whisks based on my 34 years of experience as a sauna devotee; here are some of my top tips:- I use juniper because its spines make it a particularly effective stimulator of subcutaneous circulation. Its juices help to relieve muscular tension and joint problems. And it also acts as a deep cleanser and therefore is an excellent daily stress reliever;- The combination of yeast and oak restores overall balance and is particularly effective as a body tonic;- The fragrance of heather is calming;- Blackcurrant adds a spicy fragrance to the green; - Hazel, rosemary, and maple branches in fresh incense according to the sensation that arises from focusing on each sauna ritual separately;All plants need to protect themselves from attack, which is why herbal essential oils have antibacterial properties.It is important to remember that each sauna session is unique because all plants are alive, and your interaction with them will be new. In addition, linden and oaks have been a gateway to the unseen world. From this respect for every branch and twig of the plant, we could learn, among other things, from the peoples of nature. Therefore it is nice to be a good gardener when picking herbs, and on the other hand, to be a naturalist: express gratitude to the plants and ask for help to succeed in your journey, be it relaxation, healing, or the need to resolve a difficult situation.Happy blooming!

The sauna season is just beginning! While sauna seems like an obvious choice in the winter time, because who wouldn&#039;t like to escape the humidity and cold, sauna in the summer, on the other hand, is a very reasonable choice.The fact that the sauna is used happily both in the summer as well as in the winter, even in the Mediterranean climate, may be assumed on the basis of a historical fact that by the 3rd century, approximately 850 saunas or terme were built in Rome - the centre of indulgence of the era, or sudatoriums, were heated up to 70°C. But why on Earth? Here are 7 excellent reasons why sauna is a great choice in the summertime.1. Sweating, sitting on the sauna bench - deep cleansing of the body. In order to keep our body in the best possible condition, we must be able to get rid of residues on an ongoing basis, some of which accumulate under the skin and can only be excreted during long-term sweating. Especially in the summer. It can be successfully and pleasantly done in the <a target="_blank" href="Iglucraft sauna">Iglucraft sauna</a>, which does not require to heat the steam room too hot. To sweat properly, moderate heat (approx. 70°C) is sufficient, at which it is nice to sit on the stage for a long time or, if the dimensions allow, also to lie down. Steam could also be created by pouring water on the hot stones of a sauna stove very moderately so that condensation does not block the sweat glands. The possibility to beat yourself with the whisk of twigs is like a cherry on top of a cake, which can be applied, in order to raise the body temperature even more to activate the function of the skin and the intensity of sweating.

2. Fresh twigs / herbs bound together in the sauna whisk, which are freely available only in the summer, fill the steam room with a pleasant aroma. Also, the active ingredients of herbs are usually the most intense in the recently collected whisks. According to the folk medicine, many different herbs may be bound into whisks, the use of which has traditionally been varied. However, it is certain that massaging the body by beating it with whisks helps to transport the heat into deeper layers of the skin, it intensifies metabolism, lymph and blood circulation and improves skin elasticity - thus, it has a rejuvenating effect on the skin. The impact is especially noticeable immediately after the sauna, but with frequent sauna visits, interaction with relaxation and reduction of stress, the duration of the rejuvenation treatment is more durable.3. Muscle relaxation after intense physical activity, effort. Traditionally, in Estonia, the sauna was heated after each working day, when the body had to put up with extreme load performing the field work. Nowadays, the source of muscle tension has become sedentary work and lifestyle, as well as physical exertions during trainings and hikes, after which the heat of sauna is a great way to relax tensions in the muscles. Once again, there is no need to try to create extreme heat. Rather, it is recommended to contribute to a longer stay in the steam room, upon which the effect will be long-lasting and relaxation more thorough. The massage performed by beating oneself with the whisks is also of a great help, especially if it is possible to entrust somebody else with the task and at the same time lie down and enjoy oneself.4. Cardiovascular training. The influence of self-heating and subsequent cooling in the sauna is like a massage of internal organs and blood vessels. In the steam room, the blood vessels dilate, the heart activity intensifies, oxygen-rich blood is directed from the &quot;reserve&quot; of the internal organs onto the surface of the body to support cooling processes, sweating. The opposite process takes place when plunging from sauna to a much cooler environment - a pool or a body of water or pouring oneself over with cold water. The blood vessels narrow, the heart activity intensifies as a result of a shock and then slows down to a considerable extent. The whole process strengthens the heart and improves the elasticity of blood vessels, which helps to prevent / alleviate hypertension, especially if you can use spring water for cooling. In summer, it is also possible to stay in the water for a longer period of time after taking a steam bath as if floating in the mother&#039;s womb, which is an extremely relaxing and sometimes even ecstatic undertaking. This sort of luxury, though, can be afforded only in a perfectly warm water, instead of plunging into an ice hole during the winter or in a water body during the autumn or spring coolness.

5. Stress relief, holiday travel. If, after an active day, it is possible to take a steam bath in the sauna, let the heat warm your body, sweat, massage yourself with fresh, pleasantly smelling whisks and then cool down, by plunging into a natural or artificial water body or, in their absence, taking a cool shower, the body&#039;s defence mechanisms activate. Intracorporeal hormones, which come to the rescue in a stressful situation, should ensure the stability of the body&#039;s functioning and find a solution in case of the emergence of any problems. Anyhow, since we have already relieved the muscle tension in the steam room by pleasantly massaging the body with the whisks and then only simulated a stressful situation by alternating cold and hot, we have tricked our body to obtain a lot of extra relaxation. It is also not uncommon that after the relaxation of internal tensions one reaches unprecedented peace and bliss, or in other cases be brought to ecstasy, lying and meditating alone in the sauna. 6. Improved skin, which tends to be a problem especially during hot summers. The intense and controlled heat of a sauna stimulates circulation within your body. This helps remove dead cells, relax facial tensions, improve skin elasticity, and detoxes out unhelpful bacteria. Ultimately leaving your skin refreshed, nourished, and glowing.

7. Sauna - an enjoyable social pastime that is always special. One goes to the sauna only in a good company, leaving all worries behind so that one may feel free and unforced. Such wisdom has been shared mouth-to-mouth for centuries. By doing this, all the tensions in the body and mind may be blown off in the four corners of the world, in order to relax, to be purified. In this peaceful mood, special sensations and experiences of wow-effect have occurred that are good to be shared with friends and loved ones.This how special and trusting the atmosphere may become in the sauna may perhaps be illustrated by a memory of mine, when once during another sauna seminar that I was holding in Saaremaa, a former manager of an agricultural holding came up to me and said that all the agreements concluded in the sauna at the time worked and lasted long, thus there was no need to write them down.

Iglusauna is not just about the design and craftmanship. Iglusauna can be the landmark in your garden or an expression of your mindset. The steam of Iglusauna is famous at home and abroad. Due to its curved shape steam travels upwards to the ceiling, drifting softly downwards and filling the entire room and enveloping those relaxing on the bench.<a href="https://iglucraft.com/en/outdoor-saunas/">View all Iglusaunas</a>

Why Sauna in the Summer?

A good sauna is an enjoyable place where rational design and magic become one. It would be easy to talk about the technical side of building a good sauna, but as strange as it might sound, we assure you that the mystical side of the sauna is equally essential. The combination of the two will define your future sauna experiences. To be more precise – we cannot emphasize enough that you must trust your gut feeling when building your own to every last detail.Below you will find some things to look out for in a ’good’ sauna design. The basics - the sauna heater must match the dimensions of the sauna room. The heater manufacturers provide the recommended dimensions of the heater compartment in the product description, but it is important to pay attention to a few critical details. Better and more powerful sauna steam comes off from large rocks, and the more, the better. So small stoves with powerful electric stoves, which seem to heat relatively large spaces quickly, are not very practical, as the steam they provide is usually fierce and short-lived. A small stove must be able to gather plenty of heat because of fewer stones and pouring water over them will cool down them quickly. Therefore, the heater should be at least a minimum capacity, as suggested by the manufacturer&#039;s specification and with plenty of large stones to ensure a greater accumulation and radiation of heat from the rocks.Should you opt for a pricier wood-burning stove, it can add some natural charm to the sauna. It starts with heating and pre-tuning your awaited sauna session. A parallel with the ancestral world, everything experienced in the sauna was like a call for contact with the unseen world. Plus an aesthetic: a log fire, the smell and sound of burning and crackling wood ... and something else. Something else looms in the far corners of our consciousness. It is activated similarly, like long expeditions into the unknown, the wilderness, the rapids, sailing the endless waterways or going foraging, fishing or hunting, almost like a distant memory of those times when we depended on and lived off seamlessly of nature and its gifts.For a satisfying sauna experience, good ventilation is a must. The oxygen-rich air during a long sauna session, together with the heat, warrants a good rest and relaxation. Ideally, regulating air circulation naturally would be the best way. This can be done by installing openings for the inlet and outlet of fresh air, depending on the location of the heater. However, if that is not an option, installing a ventilation system is necessary. A window in the sauna room is a big bonus because it provides a quick and most efficient solution to the need for air exchange.You&#039;re in luck if your sauna room can accommodate space in both length and width to lie freely on. Only sitting down in a sauna, your head will inevitably get hotter than the rest of your body, especially compared to the soles of your feet. By contrast, lying down vertically in the sauna allows you to relax properly in the even spread heat. Now a bit about safety - positioning the seating area and the heater must comply with fire safety requirements. Also, the air circulation rules must be observed so that the hot air from the heater is circulated as evenly as possible throughout the sauna. The best designs whilst designing the sauna are avoiding corners and making it as curved, convex, and oval as possible.Whilst we talk forever about how to heat the sauna, it’s essential to consider where and how to cool down! Based on the body&#039;s natural defences, the healing and relaxing effects of a sauna we are all after are particularly powerful when there is an opportunity to cool down properly. Water plays a vital role – float weightlessly and let it carry you. If there is a natural or artificial body of water or a swimming pool nearby suitable for this purpose, you’re in luck. However, in the absence of one, the best solutions are those where you can at least be able to dip yourself knee-deep in water. Indoor pools, barrels, buckets, or even inflatable pools in the garden can do the trick – we let you be creative here!Bless!

The ABC of a good sauna

Undoubtedly, one of the most embracing procedures in the sauna tradition is pouring water on hot stones. The profound importance of this practice is emphasized by the fact that the Finno-Ugric tribes have preserved the word &quot;leil&quot; in their languages almost in its original form despite the millennia-old divergence of paths. The Udmurtian word &quot;lul&quot; (&quot;leil&quot;) also carries a meaning of &quot;breathing&quot; and &quot;soul&quot;, as does the Mansi word &quot;lil&quot;. Handi word &quot;ļiļ&quot; means &quot;life&quot; and &quot;vitality&quot;. Thus, steaming the sauna room has been associated with both the world of souls and the force of life.Throwing water (or an infusion) on the hot stones will circulate the air in the sauna and swiftly increase the humidity of the air. It depends, of course, on the quantity of water thrown. In any case, the action of the water vapour increases the heat sensation, so doing it in moderation is the way. Mind to only throw hot or warm water on the stones to not &quot;frighten&quot; them and build up the experience step by step. A measure of a ladle-full (approx. half a glass of water) to start with should be sufficient to get a quick initial feel of the temperature of the stones and whether &quot;to brace’&quot; or embrace the steam. Then the procedure can be repeated at the desired pace. Always drizzle the stones slowly and distribute the water evenly between them

higistavad-1647245737.jpeg

The water should be warmed up or be hot, to which you could add essential oils for a more aromatic atmosphere in the steam room. You could also use herbal extracts or water infusions for drenching the birch twigs. Avoid any other leaves or herbs of the water bucket landing on the hot stones whilst steaming up the sauna room.To make herbal infusions, the necessary plants may be left in hot water until the active ingredients of the plant are released. Mint, blackcurrant, juniper and birch are most widely used. However, the tradition and favourites of the use of herbs vary greatly depending on whom you ask – so feel free to find your favourites!Throwing hot water on the stones, your body will be coated with the condensation from the steam, which will slow down your body’s perspiration – to avoid that, start by first letting your own sweat to be released so that the detox process could be released, continued by some more hot steam and whisking. The length of sauna enjoyment is up to each of our own preferences. The entire <a target="_blank" href="https://iglucraft.com/en/outdoor-saunas/">sauna</a> experience should be enjoyable from A to Z – it’s only then we can achieve the extent of pleasure and relief of stress the sauna experience is what it is destined to be.Smooth, sublime, and spiritual saunaing!

Make sure to check them out and consider starting your own successful hospitality business with Iglucraft <a target="_blank" href="https://iglucraft.com/en/cabins/">cabins</a> and <a target="_blank" href="https://iglucraft.com/en/outdoor-saunas/">saunas</a> that boast the turnkey concept as well as an easy order, delivery and installation process in any location you can dream of.The top 20 in Airbnb Offbeat category is this impressive bunch of Iglucraft cabins, each featuring tens and hundreds of reviews and a review rate of above 4.8 average. <a href="https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/26371217?adults=1&category_tag=Tag%3A8225&children=0&infants=0&search_mode=flex_destinations_search&check_in=2022-06-06&check_out=2022-06-13&federated_search_id=bbda28a1-ec7d-4611-be6a-8d89d0166516&source_impression_id=p3_1648556840_Yu0TJXHKwAGiRoqy">Lake View + Sauna 30 minutes from Oslo</a><a href="https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/26445770?adults=1&category_tag=Tag%3A8225&children=0&infants=0&search_mode=flex_destinations_search&check_in=2022-05-29&check_out=2022-06-05&federated_search_id=4fdfc3ea-c14a-46dc-bb66-f0397f44fb98&source_impression_id=p3_1648556902_Q9FCSuqRHKASy7%2Fj">Igluhut Milzkalne</a><a href="https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/49451970?adults=1&category_tag=Tag%3A8225&children=0&infants=0&search_mode=flex_destinations_search&check_in=2022-11-06&check_out=2022-11-13&federated_search_id=60e9bc7a-4d96-4111-a64a-66f4a267871c&source_impression_id=p3_1648556709_nvUr7dkL74E4HUW1">Floating Igloo Romance</a><a href="https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/52767999?adults=1&category_tag=Tag%3A8225&children=0&infants=0&search_mode=flex_destinations_search&check_in=2022-05-01&check_out=2022-05-08&federated_search_id=bbda28a1-ec7d-4611-be6a-8d89d0166516&source_impression_id=p3_1648556783_dBd6qL4hpHbIVRul">Cozy Nordic Iglucabin with Seaviews</a><a href="https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/43346676?adults=1&category_tag=Tag%3A8225&children=0&infants=0&search_mode=flex_destinations_search&check_in=2022-04-01&check_out=2022-04-08&federated_search_id=4fdfc3ea-c14a-46dc-bb66-f0397f44fb98&source_impression_id=p3_1648556963_eWrDzjyGqMCqw2tO">Hobbithus Minuhus pa Fione in Norway</a><a href="https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/42888498?adults=1&category_tag=Tag%3A8225&children=0&infants=0&search_mode=flex_destinations_search&check_in=2022-05-08&check_out=2022-05-15&federated_search_id=4fdfc3ea-c14a-46dc-bb66-f0397f44fb98&source_impression_id=p3_1648557024_WQ%2BaXXbomoYnJaaw">Des Refuges Du Chalet</a>

Igluhut is a prefab that is tailored to suit. The design of Iglucraft cabin is unique, combining the centuries-old shingle technology with modern knowledge and craftwork. Model 4 is a cabin with more air and light. Sometimes you just need some extra space in your glamping pod. It is equipped as Model 3, but we have added an extra room for your comfort.<a target="_blank" href="https://iglucraft.com/en/cabins/cabin-model-4/">More information about cabin model 4</a>

Prefab Saunas & Shingle-Clad Micro Cabins by Iglucraft of Estonia

The history of hot tubs dates back to Ancient Egypt, around 2000 BC, where hot tubs were the size of small pools in the culture of bathing and sanitation. The water was then heated on sizzling hot stones for the pleasure and wellness of the bourgeois, which they then bathed in several times a day in aspiration to become god-like.Ancient Rome mimicked all the good from Ancient Greece, amplifying them, so thousands of baths were built with elaborate saunas and steam rooms - sudatorium and laconicum – combined with hot, warm and cold pools. All for the pleasure of the body&#039;s thermoregulation to fulfil a perfect relaxation with its healing side effects.Human physiology has remained the same over the millennia, and so has the luxurious sauna practices of the ancient world and the magical ones of the Nordics which all have carried on to modern times.For the past 35 years, we have been treasuring our own sauna practices and rituals - throwing hot water on stones and whisking after that and soaking in a hot barrel (at around 39°C / 102F) followed by tempering in cool, or even icy water.In a steam room, the body is deeply detoxed by sweating and the elimination of residues accumulated under the skin is intensified by a whisking massage. Additionally, it’s a relaxation for the muscles and the mind. After soaking in water, cooling off in the pool or hot-tub,  or stimulating the body with a cold shower or a bath, the shock effect exercises the heart and the circulatory system and &#039;massages&#039; the internal organs by dilating and constricting the blood vessels, and activates the body&#039;s defences and immunity.After the self-splurge spree of the stimulation of your body, a flood of calming endorphins from the defence mechanisms takes relaxation to the next level, where the concept of an antique world luxury craving feels closer than ever. With the ability completely unlax - you may find yourself in the path of the ancient Nordic mages, under the influence of endogenous N-Dimethyltryptamine (DMT).Apart from the steam room and relaxation, you can top up the experience by enabling the heat of the hot tub carry you further. Now, the levels of relaxation in the sauna have reached a point where an IT  guru might best explain it with your state of your mind being restarted: it’s like if your BIOS, the operating system of your self, has not yet started running, the cache is still empty and you feel with every cell in your body that ANYTHING is possible...P.S. If there is no body of water available nearby where to cool off after a sauna, you can also use the barrel or a tub bath to cool yourself down. To do this, fill the barrel with cool water to your liking instead of hot water. Then, after exiting the sauna, take a deep breath out, submerge into and float in the soothing water like a cork, lifting your head out to breathe if necessary. Indulge yourself until your feel the calling to return to the sauna.Soak up the spirit of the steam!

Iglucraft hot-tub matches perfectly with your Igluhut or Iglusauna, but has enough character to stand alone in your back yard. Enjoy the tub with cold water after the sauna or heat it up in cold evenings. A place to relax and unwind.<a target="_blank" href="https://iglucraft.com/en/saunas/hot-tub/">Get your hot-tub</a>

Unusual accommodation in a Igluhut in Nuuksio Reindeer Park, Finland

Last week the Ambassador of Estonia, Mr. Viljar Lubi, hosted a private opening of Iglucraft sauna in his residence. The sauna will serve as a central point of sharing Estonian traditions with the visitors of the Ambassador&#039;s residence in the future by providing the guests with a possibility to experience a true Estonian sauna in the very center of London.

The guests of the event were able to experience Iglucraft traditional sauna craftsmanship combined with innovative technology as the sauna includes a novel technology of steaming - an indoor climate device that mixes the steam from upper levels and cold air from the lower levels. Also, take a Virtual Reality tour into the vastly developing world of Iglucraft products that gives a really authentic overview of Iglucraft <a target="_blank" href="https://iglucraft.com/en/cabins/">cabins</a> and <a target="_blank" href="https://iglucraft.com/en/outdoor-saunas/">saunas</a> in an imaginative glamping park. But also taste authentic Estonian food and drinks, and learn about Estonia and the sauna culture from Iglucraft team, who have been involved with the world of sauna for almost a decade.

Iglusauna is not just about the design and craftmanship. Iglusauna can be the landmark in your garden or an expression of your mindset. The steam of Iglusauna is famous at home and abroad. Due to it&#039;s curved shape steam travels upwards to the ceiling, drifting softly downwards and filling the entire room and enveloping those relaxing on the bench.<a href="https://iglucraft.com/en/outdoor-saunas/">View all Iglusaunas</a>
