Stress and Anxiety: Sauna sessions can promote relaxation, reduce stress hormones, and improve mood, which may help manage anxiety and stress-related issues.

Cardiovascular Health: Saunas may help improve cardiovascular function by promoting circulation, reducing blood pressure, and increasing heart rate, potentially benefiting those with certain heart conditions.
