Bergland Sauna Infusions

The Finns are considered as sauna world champions and this is no coincidence. Because statistically, at least every forth Finn has a sauna. Thus there is probably no sauna-free place throughout Finland. And because people like to sweat in the ”Land of the Thousand Lakes“, they don't want to do without it while travelling. If Finns are looking for saunas in Germany, however, there are plenty bricks one can drop. For example, if a Finn enters the sauna, he will first replenish plenty of infusion. For Germans this is an absolute offense. In Germany, infusions are exclusively made by the sauna master. In contrast, for Finns this is an act of courtesy. Because by opening the door heat could escape and thus it is absolutely self-evident to raise the temperature again. Moreover, the sauna master who is mandatory in Germany and provides for a fresh infusion at regular times, does not exist in Finland. The people who sauna know best, when the time for a new infusion comes.

In Finland the person responsible for the infusion is always the one who sits at the top in the greatest heat. Because that person can best estimate a drop in temperature. Accordingly, the sauna bucket and the ladle are placed also on the top bench. Water is poured every few minutes. The air humidity is continuously high and hot steam clouds are permanently in the room. The ceremonial fluttering of towels done by German sauna masters therefore isn't necessary. The extremely hot water vapor, which suddenly hits the skin during fluttering, naturally also becomes superfluous. Finnish sauna staff only put more wood on the fire. The Finns view going to the sauna rather casually. The length of the sauna session and the breaks do not follow any recommendations, but only the individual feeling. Thus, sauna marathons are just as possible as short sessions. One goes to the sauna according to wellbeing, pleasure and the form on the day. In the country, the Finns cool off with a jump into the lake - even in the winter. Alternatively, Finnish sauna visitors also like to welter in the snow.

Whether aromatic fragrances are added to the infusion water differs from region to region in Finland. Purists insist on pure water steam and tolerate only birch twigs. Because whipping with the ”birch tassel“ has a massage-like effect. But there are also Finns, who think that a splash of aroma oil in the infusion water is very pleasant. German noses may need to get used to the scent. Because the secret favorite in Finland is the tar scent. The sauna then has the cabin flair of an old fish cutter. If you want to relax in your home sauna with classic aromas, Bergland offers wonderfully fragrant sauna infusions. The carefully selected fragrance compositions with natural essential oils stimulate the senses and ensure unforgettable wellness moments. The Lemongrass sauna infusion has a refreshing citrus scent. Those who prefer the tart scent of herbs and forests should opt for Swiss stone pine, ice mint or Finnish winter. The ideal complement to Bergland sauna infusions is Bergland Sauna Honey Gel Sunny Orange. The honey gel is applied to the damp skin of the whole body during the last sauna session and massaged in repeatedly. The light texture of the sauna gel allows it to be quickly absorbed in the warm and humid sauna. The nourishing scrub with blossom honey leaves the skin feeling silky smooth. Treat yourself to well-deserved moments of relaxation with the natural Bergland sauna products.
