A high temperature and high humidity environment will increase the heart rate and blood pressure to a certain extent, while soaking in cold water will slow down the heart rate and lower blood pressure. Therefore, the indoor temperature, humidity, bathing time, including the number of hot and cold exchanges, must be strictly controlled. When you take a bath for the first time, you can only stay in the high-temperature steam room for 5 minutes, and then gradually extend the stay time in the high-humidity steam room. Since sauna bathing has certain effects on the human body, it is not advisable to take a sauna bath in the following cases:

1. Patients with a history of hypertension or heart disease. Because sauna bathing causes a wide range of fluctuations in blood pressure and increases the burden on the heart, it can easily lead to high blood pressure, sudden heart attack, accidents, and even life-threatening conditions.

2. After meals, especially within half an hour after a full meal. Taking a sauna bath immediately after a meal will cause the blood vessels in the skin to dilate, and a large amount of blood will flow back to the skin, affecting the blood supply to the digestive organs, which will inevitably affect the digestion and absorption of food and is harmful to your health.
