How can banya help us beat stress and anxiety?
Let’s face it, we are all living hectic lives, and every day we face the prospect of experiencing anxiety and mental and physical stress. You may be wondering what any of this has to do with banya. Well, recent research has found that banya and hot steam can have a positive effect on the nervous system and help us beat stress and anxiety. Here’s how it works.
- Hot steam affects the nerve endings of the skin and this causes a rush of blood flow from the brain to the peripheral organs. This in turn leads to a decrease in brain and emotional activities. As an added bonus, it also helps to relieve headaches.
- It is important to mention that hot steam helps to enhance the muscle recovery process by increasing blood circulation and carrying oxygen-rich blood to oxygen-depleted muscles. Muscle tension relief is a significant factor on the path to relaxation.
- Moreover, the scents and essential oils emanating from the assorted tree leaves that we use inside the steam room help to calm the nervous system and promote relaxation.
If you are feeling stressed, we recommend spending a couple of hours at Banya No.1. Indeed, the majority of our clients have commented on how they leave the banya with a feeling of relaxation, having had their fatigue relieved and their negative emotions alleviated. In addition, they also enjoy a positive charge of exuberance, joy and tranquillity, and this is all due to the effect of the bath on the health of the nervous system.
