Should I use a mat inside my sauna?

Yes, using a mat inside your sauna is recommended for comfort and hygiene. A mat can help absorb sweat, reduce slipping, and protect the sauna's wooden surfaces from stains.

Sauna mats are designed to withstand high temperatures and humidity, making them a great addition to your sauna. They can also serve as an additional layer of insulation, making your sauna experience more enjoyable. Many users find that mats provide better grip and comfort when sitting or lying down.

For instance, if you have sensitive skin, using a mat can help reduce direct contact with the wood and avoid irritation. Additionally, mats make for easier cleaning after use, as they can be removed and washed separately.

Pro Tip: Look for mats that are made from moisture-resistant materials and are easy to clean.

Consideration: If you prefer the natural feel of the wood, you may choose to go without a mat, but remember to clean the benches regularly.
