Circulation - Bathing with steam improves the body's blood circulation. In turn, this helps many areas of the body as more blood is delivered to tired muscles. This also encourages the body to relax. Additionally, some steam shower models include massage jets, which deliver massage with streams of water, and also improves circulation.
Skin - Taking a steam shower deeply cleanses the skin in a way a regular shower cannot. The steam causes the body to sweat, which in turn causes toxins to leave the body. The pores of the skin are opened and cleaned. At the same time, the skin is hydrated and dry skin is treated. This will also decrease itchiness and reduce the appearance of acne.
Pre-Existing Conditions - Those living with pre-existing conditions, such as asthma, allergies, rheumatism, chronic pain, stress, and more, find bathing with steam brings relief to their everyday lives.
Breathing - A steam session treats congestion and opens the sinuses. This loosens mucus in the respiratory system and brings relief to those with asthma and allergies.
Relaxation - Bathing with steam promotes relaxation. Many steam shower models also have additional features that encourage relaxation, including FM radio, speakers, aromatherapy systems, massage jets, chromatherapy lighting, rainfall ceiling showerhead and more.
Additionally, taking a steam shower produces sweat and heats the body, which creates an artificial fever and boosts the immune system. Ultimately, this helps the body tackle illness.
Having an in-home steam shower system is also more convenient than having to drive to the gym or spa for a steam session.
