Whether you consider yourself to be a connoisseur of ‘R&R,’ or you simply enjoy unwinding after a long day’s work, you are well aware of the undeniable benefits of using a sauna.
Medical studies have proven that regular use of a sauna does the following:
You may be intrigued by the allure of having a sauna conveniently placed outside your home, which are often barrel saunas, but you simply have questions.
You may wonder what exactly a barrel sauna is.
Perhaps you question if a sauna that is outdoors is as comfortable as an indoor one.
Maybe you question if you will actually benefit from using a sauna.
To help you reach your conclusion, here is a deeper look at the comfortability of an outside sauna and a few suggestions of our most comfortable outdoor sauna models.
Contrary to the typical indoor sauna design, the barrel sauna showcases a circular design that sheds water naturally.
Although indoor use of a barrel sauna is possible in some cases, due to its structural design and durability, they function more appropriately when used as an outdoor sauna.
Barrel saunas, which are just as comfortable as indoor saunas, were indeed created with a relaxing experience in mind.
Here are 4 reasons why barrel saunas are comfortable:
Whether sitting upright, neck straightened with your back comfortably fitted along the curve of the sauna wall, or whether you choose to use the bench to recline, taking full advantage of an included red cedar back support, each scenario ensures that you feel no strain.
Not to mention, you are temporarily removed from the hustle and bustle surrounding you within your home. You will only hear the sound of, or feel, utter relaxation and pure bliss.
While some homes have space for extras such as a guest room or home office, all rooms in most homes are preoccupied. By building a sauna outside your home, you will not have to make room for one or worry about using valuable inside space.
With pre-assembled walls and straightforward instructions, along with video footage for assistance, putting an outdoor sauna together can be completed without breaking a sweat.
While typical yard extras, such as the old faithful storage shed, can become quite the eyesore overtime, an outdoor sauna delivers a homely, aesthetically pleasing charm right to your doorstep. Also, a well-constructed outdoor sauna will increase your property value.
Of course, indoor saunas possess relaxing qualities as well, but you may not be able to fully enjoy them due to your housemates.
Demanding children, needy pets, and an inquisitive spouse might prevent you from indulging in your much-needed “me time.” With an outdoor sauna, you can enjoy quality alone time without leaving your residence.
If you happen to have a pool, your outdoor sauna can function as a pool house of sorts as well. As an added bonus, you can even use your pool briefly between sauna sessions, making wintertime as equally enjoyable as the summer.
