Steam Bath : What is it?

SteamBaths1

A steam bath is a type of bathing that induces sweating for therapeutic and recreational purposes. It relaxes, renews energy, and promotes health and beauty. It uses a heat source and water to generate steam. It operates most effectively at a temperature range of 43 to 46 degrees Celsius and a relative humidity of above 100%. It requires a steam generator to produce constant steam or mist, a steam-tight cabin to prevent steam from escaping, and a precise control system.    

Most spas, health clubs, and gyms provide steam baths through steam rooms and wet and dry saunas. However, new technology allows steam bathing to be enjoyed right at home by integrating it with the existing shower system, building a steam room from scratch, or purchasing a prebuilt or standalone steam bath.
