dry sauna
Hot wooden chamber
A dry sauna is a heated room using low humidity, typically with wooden benches and a stove that warms rocks or air.
Unlike steam rooms or wet saunas where water is poured on hot stones, dry saunas maintain minimal moisture: The gym has both a steam room and a dry sauna.
Temperatures usually range from 150 to 195 degrees Fahrenheit.
