SAUNA is the only bath in the world in which both
dry air and damp air are present at the same time. It is the body's
natural way to cleanse itself through perspiration. The high heat
(average 160'-180'F) and low humidity (about 25%) create an environment
which promotes over-all perspiration and the deep cleansing of pores.
The body's impurities are flushed away (even nicotine from a smoker's body).
The special heat and humidity soothes and relaxes tired muscles,
relieves stress, and promotes a wonderful feeling of satisfaction
and well being. Additionally, a Sauna helps to maintain clear,
healthy skin (the after sauna glow), increases: blood circulation,
breathing rate and pulse rate.
The Living Seed discount is only available to students coming to the center.

One hour class, suitable for people of all ages and abilities.
