It was a health reason and my insurance company paid for part of it. It has helped immensely for my back pain.TitansFanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06576864096152953998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8491088023973371313.post-3872742619489802352009-07-07T12:09:44.221+08:002009-07-07T12:09:44.221+08:00mantse -just have to remember to stay hydrated and...mantse -just have to remember to stay hydrated and drink a lot of water afterwards!<br /><br />Tales -I sure am going to miss sauna when I leave, especially during winter... but... can't have it all!<br /><br />Tarja -yeah it's funny this thing w saunas.. In Sweden we have them in swimming complexes but they r not as hot or as popular as here in FI... But when I went to Korea I tried some different kinds of saunas. Over there it's a big thing too. And their saunas are hot, hot, hot!<br /><br />Kanmuri -u have to go here and try! Funny, you'd think a country like Canada (with a quite similar climate to Finland) would also have a lot of saunas. <br /><br />Pete -they are quite nice yeah!<br /><br />Sassy -it's hot indeed!!! Yeah, most people don't know about the sauna culture over here... (that includes me some 4 years ago!) <br /><br />Mifeng -I hear you, although a sauna is a bit different than living at a hot place.. having said that however, I am not sure I would like to have a sauna in Suzhou where it's already so hot. It's the best during a late, chilly night or during winter. <br /><br />Adrian -there are a few Finns in China, especially in Suzhou.. but not that amount that u could turn it into a whole business. Seeing that there are 5 something million Finns in total we aren't really talking about a huge number here.... Maybe u haven't tried the right kind of sauna yet. It is really nice, especially after a cold dip or a work out!Jonna Wibeliushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08954672453008704738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8491088023973371313.post-8377943964321922552009-07-07T00:23:46.338+08:002009-07-07T00:23:46.338+08:00I have to admit I've never liked saunas.

Sometimes I even get headaches from sitting in such a hot environment. <br /><br />Maybe I'm just weird.<br /><br />Adrian<br /><br />ps: Are there many Finn's in China?

Finnish people who live in the same compound use it a lot! Allso chinese people use it but I'm not sure why. They sit allmost at the floor level, so there is no heat. Maybe they want to get rid of their fluids, I don't know. I sit at the highest seat and throw water on the stones as finns do it. Chinese ladies run out the door after one minute I arrive at sauna...<br /><br />One time this one mother used the sauna as a dressing room for her daughters. They left the door open ja let the heat out. I was so mad and told them to get out.<br /><br />Sauna is holy thing for finns. Glad you allso like it. I'm surprised swedes don't have saunas, I tought you have it allso!Tarjahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04917904731232164701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8491088023973371313.post-58395068016358571142009-07-06T18:46:28.953+08:002009-07-06T18:46:28.953+08:00Now that's fabulous!

I'd be shocked if I found saunas to be a standard feature in a home or apartment!<br /><br />Glad to hear you're doing well there in Finland Jonna. I somehow think you're not going to be so excited to go back to China after this. You'll miss all the luxuries again! ^_^Brad Farlesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07631055865439844292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8491088023973371313.post-62569365183379571532009-07-06T14:33:45.492+08:002009-07-06T14:33:45.492+08:00Sauna is great.
