So here are our tips for a relaxing sauna session at our wellness hotel in the Puster Valley:

  • Take off not only your clothes, but also all jewellery – it can get very hot in the sauna and cause burns.
  • Even if the food at our wellness hotel in the Puster Valley tempts you, don’t go into the sauna on a full stomach – your body needs energy in the sauna.
  • Take a shower before each sauna session to open your pores before the subsequent sweating session.
  • Lean back in the sauna and leave your everyday thoughts behind. Do not stand up abruptly; give yourself and your circulation time before leaving the sauna.
  • Immediately after your sauna session at the wellness hotel in the Puster Valley, you should take a cold shower – this gets your circulation going.
  • Rest, relax, unwind. Close your eyes and think about nothing.
  • Drink plenty of fluids – the water at the wellness hotel in Val Pusteria tastes excellent and is good for your body.
  • Repeat the process as you wish, but listen to your body.
