NEW YORK - s4story -- A bath whisk is not just an accessory for a steam room, but a whole ritual instrument that has been used for centuries in the traditions of the Finnish sauna. It acts in several directions at once: it warms up the muscles, improves blood circulation, gently massages the skin, removes toxins and fills the air with phytoncides, creating the effect of natural aromatherapy. The choice of a suitable whisk depends not only on personal preferences, but also on the purpose of visiting the steam room: some need gentle relaxation after a hard day, while others need an intense, invigorating steaming with maximum load. In the modern context, the international term Sauna Whisks is increasingly used, emphasizing the versatility and cultural value of this bath attribute.

Birch broom: classic and soft

Birch broom is a symbol of a traditional bath. Leaves with essential oils, vitamin C and flavonoids have an anti-inflammatory and cleansing effect, improve breathing, help with coughing and relieve tension. Gently exfoliate the skin, making it more well-groomed. Suitable for those who appreciate light and soft touches.

Oak broom: strength and endurance

The oak broom is valued for its hard impact and strong wide leaves, which provide close contact and a strong massage. Tannins strengthen the skin, reduce its oiliness and act as an antiseptic. The broom is durable and suitable for long bath sessions.

Linden broom: tenderness and aromatherapy

A linden broom with soft leaves and a honey aroma relaxes, reduces stress, relieves headaches and improves sleep. Ideal for an evening steaming session and is suitable even for sensitive skin.

Mixed sets: a variety of sensations

Sets of brooms allow you to combine different types: linden for relaxation, birch for warming up and oak for an intensive massage. Such a combination gives a full range of sensations and a balance of relaxation with toning.

How to choose your first broom

• For gentle vaping and beginners - birch.
• For deep massage and invigoration - oak.
• For relaxation and aromatherapy - linden.
• For experiments and alternation of effects - mixes of different breeds.

Caring for a broom

To make the broom last longer, it is important to prepare and store it properly. Dry brooms are soaked before use: first in warm water for a few minutes, then in hot water so that the leaves open and become soft. Fresh ones - just rinse them lightly. After steaming, it is better to hang the broom in the shade, where there is air circulation, but no direct sunlight, so that it does not dry out and does not lose its beneficial properties.
