When building a Russian bathhouse, the inside is lined with “bathhouse” wood species, such as birch, pine, linden, oak, which, when the bathhouse is lit, begin to release medicinal oils and resins.

In Rus', everyone, young and old, went to the baths, but in enlightened Europe they preferred to clog the body’s aromas with perfume rather than wash.

During the stay of Peter I in Paris in 1717, by order of Tsar Peter, a bathhouse for Russian soldiers was erected right on the banks of the Seine. They steamed in it and then rushed to swim in the river. When the French asked whether the soldiers would catch a cold, the Tsar replied that the French air softens them, and the Russian bath makes them stronger.

Bath broom - original Russian invention. Only in a Russian bathhouse do steamers whip each other with a broom to drive out toxins.

The first public baths for citizens began to be built by order of Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich in the 18th century. They belonged to private individuals.

Experienced bathhouse attendants do not drink beer and other alcoholic beverages: alcohol and heavy wort increase dehydration and block the removal of toxins.

Foreigners have always been surprised how Russians, after a bath, especially in winter, run out and plunge into the ice hole. It turns out that such a swim burns up to 1000 calories.

Just a century ago, calling a woman a “bath attendant” was considered a terrible insult, because previously the words “bath attendant” and “prostitute” were synonymous.

In Russia, since 1743, a Senate decree prohibited men from washing together with women in “trade” baths. That is why Russia avoided the syphilis epidemic that swept across Europe.

In addition to hygiene, the bath helps prevent many diseases and helps remove waste and toxins.

In Rus' they called it “drives out the disease”

The expression “Enjoy your steam” is a greeting and wish of good health to someone who has just steamed or washed.

There are two versions of the origin of this turnover:

1. In Russian baths, the hottest place was almost under the ceiling, where there was a shelf-platform on which they steamed. Steam rose from hot stones doused with water. They wished the one going to the bathhouse light steam, i.e., such a steam that quickly rises upward from the hot stones.

2. In the baths, steam could mix with carbon monoxide, from which people often got angry. This steam, unlike light, good couple, called heavy. Therefore, they wanted an easy steam.

Let's go to the bathhouse, a few important rules

It's no secret that the bathhouse has a healing effect.

But how to take a steam bath in a Russian sauna so as to achieve the desired result? After all, sometimes, a person coming to the bathhouse and not knowing the basics of steaming can harm his body with an insane one-time load and forever say “no” to such a miraculous remedy as a birch or oak broom.

To prevent this from happening, let's first consider a few simple rules:

☀ Before the bath, you should not overload your body with food. To suppress your appetite, eat something light.

☀ For hygienic purposes, before starting bath procedures, take a shower, but do not wet your head, otherwise you risk causing it to overheat.

☀ If possible, remove all accessories

When entering the steam room, do not forget to put a hat or cap on your head, which will also prevent the possibility of overheating.

☀ Best time for bath procedures is individual and depends on your biological clock. However, it is believed that in the morning the body is most prepared for this type of procedure. Do not forget that the bathhouse, when the right approach can stand next to these physical activity like running and walking.

Brooms

If you decide to follow the entire procedure and achieve maximum effect– don’t forget about the broom. Choosing a broom is a whole science; of course, it is better if you prepare it yourself in June-July. But if you haven’t had such an opportunity, you can buy it, choosing by color and size - all the quality, as they say, is “in your face.”

At the moment, there are many varieties of bathhouse brooms: linden, birch, oak, eucalyptus, coniferous... And they all differ in their effect. For example:

Birch broom has a good effect on the skin, narrowing pores and having a healing effect. Eucalyptus broom vapors help cope with colds and upper respiratory tract diseases. ETC. AND SO ON.

☀ Having chosen a broom that suits your opinion, do not forget to “steam” it before starting the bath procedures.

To do this, pour a sufficient amount of hot water into a basin, where a broom is placed for soaking. As soon as your broom has softened, it is ready for use.

☀ You need to set aside enough time for the bath so that while in the steam room you don’t rush and enjoy several visits.

☀ Enter the steam room 2-3 times with short breaks, after which you definitely need a long rest.

☀ If you’re not feeling well, it’s better to reschedule the bathhouse for next time.

☀ The main thing in the bathhouse is a gradual load, so you should not immediately throw half a basin of water onto the hot stones.

☀ If someone enjoys the contrast of temperatures, they can take a dip in the pool or rub themselves in the snow.

☀ Natural drying is encouraged, that is, sitting in the dressing room without using a towel, you should dry on your own.

☀ After leaving the steam room, at least 20 minutes must pass before you go out to Fresh air. During this time, you can slowly wash yourself, take a shower, and collect your things.

☀ The optimal duration of entering the steam room at a temperature of 90 degrees and a humidity of 10 percent is 10 minutes, followed by a 10-minute rest.

☀ They take the broom with them on their second visit to the steam room.

☀ Water is poured onto the stones with a special scoop of 0.2 liters. It is important not to overdo it, as if the air humidity increases, it becomes difficult to breathe.

☀ Many people feel thirsty after a steam room. Therefore, you can drink kvass and mineral water. Very useful in such cases is green tea. But those who want to lose weight should not drink liquids for 2 hours after the bath.

How to steam properly

Stroking, whipping, whipping with a broom is akin to a real massage, which stimulates blood circulation, increases sweating and energizes. Movements should be soft, flexible, and the broom should lightly touch the body, only increasing the heat. It is important that it is always moist and fluffy.

The intensity of steaming is determined by the temperature in the steam room. If she is tall, they whip her with a broom gently; if she is not very tall, she whips her with a sweeping sweep. They usually start with stroking movements from the feet to the hips and stomach, chest and neck. Then vigorously fasten the legs, stomach, chest and arms. They finish by rubbing: hold the handle of the broom with one hand, and press the leaves to the body with the other. Inhale its aroma often, it will become a true massage for the lungs.

Sweat removes as much unnecessary and harmful things as possible from the body. By the way, this is why experienced bathhouse attendants do not wipe it, but clean it with special scrapers so that the sweat is not absorbed back.

And this is why you need to drink a lot in the bathhouse: all the liquid that comes in will come out, taking with it toxins, impurities and other dirt. In addition, heat relieves tension, relaxes muscles, and calms.

What and how to serve in the steam room

Herbal infusions not only give a pleasant smell, but also have a beneficial effect on the body. The heated essential molecules of plants increase their activity many times over, thanks to which we leave the steam room in literally imbued with benefits.

For example, eucalyptus steam contains 40 beneficial components. Peppermint improves mood and calms nerves. Linden greatly enhances sweating and treats colds. There are lovers of beer, kvass and even tobacco vapor. Cigarette smoke is harmful to health, but brewed tobacco heals problem skin.

First they splash on the stones hot water to cool them slightly. Then - the diluted infusion, and then - water again. You can also sprinkle the infusion on the walls and floor. But you should not water those present - when mixed with sweat, it will give off an unpleasant odor.

On a note

Overheating often occurs due to low sweating.

The fact is that sweat cools our skin, entering the so-called thermoregulation chain.

If it does not appear, body temperature and blood pressure rise sharply. And the body signals this with dizziness.

To activate sweating, massage your body with a soft mitten or towel. Honey also helps.

The fruit acids it contains exfoliate the skin, free pores from impurities and facilitate sweating.

In principle, any exfoliating procedures help (the easiest way is to exfoliate in the shower right before going in), as well as diaphoretic teas.

It is better not to drink black tea and coffee in the bathhouse: they excite the nervous system, which is absolutely useless for a relaxed body.

Beer is also despised by experienced bathhouse attendants: the alcohol and heavy wort of this drink increase dehydration of the body and block the removal of toxins. It's better to drink in the bathhouse mineral water or herbal tea.

During bath procedures in one of the saunas, it is customary to talk slowly (in which one - read our other publications). One of the topics for conversation could be a few interesting facts about the sauna.

1. What is steaming? Most people know that in Rus' they steamed “black and white,” but not many know the fact that there was such a way as “let’s get in.” How was this done? What does this mean? The fact is that in Russian houses the stoves were of impressive size. After cooking, after the oven had cooled down a little, all the ash was raked out of it, the inside was lined with dry straw or grass and they climbed inside to steam - “let’s get in.” They splashed water on the hot walls and created steam.

This unusual method was resorted to by those of our ancestors who lived in arid steppe or simply devoid of forest areas, where it was problematic to build a full-fledged bathhouse.

2. It is customary to come to a Japanese sauna clean. The Japanese sauna, called furo, is a large capacity with hot water, about 400 degrees Celsius, and the water in it may not change for several days, but the visitors do. Therefore, in order not to pollute the water, you need to come in initially clean and use this procedure to warm up. At the same time, the sauna room itself Japanese houses designed exactly like a sauna. You can imagine the surprise of foreign guests that taking a bath after someone else is in the order of things.

3. In Mexico, the Mexican Indians have a steam bath, and it is called “temazcal”. The process of soaring in it is a very pleasant procedure. It takes place on a special mat, which is spread on the floor. The bather lies down on it, and, according to the special custom of the Mexican Indians, a person of the opposite sex floats.

4. B ancient Greece Instead of our oak or birch brooms, brooms made from bay leaves were used. And Hippocrates, famous for his oath, was a supporter of cleanliness and steam. He discovered that at high temperatures and humidity, waste and toxins are removed from the body along with sweat. Modern scientists have confirmed his findings.

5. In the Roman Baths, the cost per Roman was no less than modern man. Although in ancient times it was much more difficult to obtain water in such quantities than in modern times. Giant multi-kilometer viaducts served this purpose.

6. In some European countries (Germany and Austria), visiting public saunas is allowed for both men and women. That is, being naked in the same sauna with both strangers and colleagues, for example, at work, is a common thing.

7. Sawdust bath Let's return to Japan again and describe a type of dry bath - “sawdust bath”. It is prepared as follows - in the sawdust remaining after sawing cedar wood, various herbs and herbs are added, mixed, and heated to 60 degrees. Next, a person is buried in them so that only the head remains on the surface. Heated sawdust, like sand, perfectly absorbs sweat and other skin secretions. And the person undergoing this procedure also receives a wonderful aromatherapy session.

8. Sauna in a bag

Now let's go back to our ancestors. In Rus' there was also a type of dry bath - a bath in a bag. And it was done as follows. They took a bag, filled it with flower hay or birch leaves, heated it, and then a person climbed into the bag.

9. Sand sauna Well, the last one on our list is a sand sauna, which is done as follows. There is a place with clean, heated sand, into which a person is buried so that only his head is outside. Sand heated in the sun warms up the body, like in a steam room, and perfectly absorbs sweat and other skin secretions. It is best to complement this procedure with a subsequent swim in the sea. This procedure is still used today against many diseases.
