At The Trail Home, we commend our clients for choosing to include steam showers in their basement finishes and bathroom remodels.
Steam showers have many health benefits, including:
Relaxation: Steam showers can help you relax and feel a sense of well-being.
Improved circulation: The heat from the steam dilates blood vessels, which can increase blood flow and lower blood pressure.
Muscle recovery: The moist heat from a steam shower can help muscles heal by increasing blood flow and delivering oxygen and nutrients.
Joint flexibility: The increased blood flow from a steam shower can help with joint stiffness and mobility.
Congestion relief: The warmth and humidity from a steam shower can help with sinus congestion by promoting drainage.
Skin health: The steam from a steam shower opens pores, which can help remove dead skin cells and wash away irritants.
Immune system stimulation: A study found that heat treatments like steam showers can increase white blood cell counts, which may stimulate the immune system.
Improved mood: Steam showers can help improve your mood, self-esteem, and self-confidence.
Calorie burn: Steam showers can burn up to 150 calories per session.
Eco-friendly: A 15-minute steam shower uses only two gallons of water, compared to 40 gallons for a conventional bath.
Better shaving: Steam showers can soften and lubricate skin for a smoother shave.
Better sleep: Steam showers may help increase the length of REM cycles during sleep.
