Autumn is a season of change - the days get shorter, the temperatures drop and the immune system is particularly challenged by the changeable weather conditions. During this time, a visit to the spa or sauna can not only offer a soothing break from everyday life, but also provide important support for your health.
The healing power of thermal water
Thermal baths, known for centuries for their healing properties, are a true gift of nature. The warm, mineral-rich water helps to relax the body and promote blood circulation. The minerals contained in the thermal water, such as sodium, calcium and magnesium, penetrate the body through the skin and can help to stimulate the metabolism and relax the muscles. Regular immersion in thermal water can have a preventative effect, especially in the cooler months when our body is working at full speed to protect itself from colds and other infections.
The sauna as a booster for the immune system
A sauna session not only offers relaxation, but also has considerable health benefits. The heat in the sauna causes the body temperature to rise artificially, creating a kind of "artificial fever". This is a natural defense reaction of the body that helps to fight pathogens. The increased body temperature stimulates the immune system to produce more white blood cells, which are responsible for fighting off infections. Sweating in the sauna also detoxifies the body, as harmful substances are excreted through the skin.
Alternating between a hot sauna and then cooling down in cold water or in the fresh air also trains the cardiovascular system and promotes blood circulation. This process not only strengthens the immune system, but also helps to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.
The combination of a visit to the spa and sauna: a powerful weapon against autumn infections
The regular combination of a thermal bath and sauna can help to prepare the immune system for the coming fall and winter. The warm thermal water relaxes and optimally prepares the body for the sauna session, while the sauna strengthens the immune system and supports detoxification. This dual effect not only ensures increased physical fitness, but also increased resistance to the typical colds that occur more frequently during the cold season.
