instructions for assembly. The Harvia sauna is of wooden


construction so they complement any garden and make a wonderful haven for relaxation. The kit comes with all the wood and necessary components. You can choose from an electric heater or an original wood burning stove option. Three models are available and all come with verandas. Manager of Certikin’s Commercial division, Steve Nelson, says: “In Finland, a sauna is as commonplace as a bath. Whilst Britain has a long way to go in emulating that sort of ownership, I think there is a great education programme to be done in this country. Regular use of a sauna leads to improved blood circulation and immunity, relief from muscle pain, stress relief, and physical and mental relaxation. A Harvia sauna is excellent value considering its high quality and aesthetically pleasing good looks.” The Variant sauna is probably the most flexible of Harvia’s sauna designs: there are four options for wall and ceiling panelling (all of which are insulated and therefore energy efficient), and there’s a choice of windows and doors. There are also five stylish alternatives for the interior design. The benches, headrests and backrests are made from easy-care abachi wood. In total, there are 25 different models to choose from.


NO WAITING AROUND WITH FAR- INFRARED TECHNOLOGY It’s no secret that most sectors have struggled in the wake of the recent economic downturn, however, as a leading sauna and steam room distributor, Aqualine Saunas has not shared in this experience. This isn’t as a result of an aggressive marketing strategy or superior branding; they believe that their success


is, in part, down to a cultural shift, and the fact that the British public is, on the whole, becoming ever more educated about the importance of personal health and wellbeing. Many of us lead fast-paced lifestyles where stress can become a major hazard to both our physical and mental health, but the introduction of heat therapy can go a long way to combatting this. One of their leading brands, SaunaMed, is hailed for its healing properties, through the way it makes use of far-infrared technology. SaunaMed saunas are excellent for encouraging the body’s own healing and wellbeing, but they also have patented EMR Neutral technology, which means that they do not emit harmful radiation like other competitor brands. SaunaMed saunas warm up in just 5-10 minutes, they are extremely low maintenance and cheap to run, making them the perfect choice for people who desire the relaxation and health benefits of a sauna in their own home. It is also worth noting that health conditions, such as arthritis, show dramatic improvement with regular far- infrared heat treatment, so the convenience of a home sauna can be worth its weight in gold. With a wide range of designs and sizes, there is a SaunaMed sauna for every home and budget.
