Differences between the steam bath (Turkish bath) and the sauna Which is the best option?

Posted by on J September, 2022

The steam bath and sauna are two types of heat treatment that take place in enclosed spaces where high temperatures can be reached for the benefit of health. The main differences between the two lie in the percentage of humidity, temperature and materials of their manufacture.

What is the steam bath? Manufacturing features and materials

The steam bath, also known as Turkish bath or hammam, is a wellness treatment that is performed in an enclosed cabin. It has its origin in Turkey although its use is also recognized to ancient Rome. Unlike the dry sauna, the steam bath usually has a high humidity, between 80% and 90%. The temperature is between 40ºC and 70ºC.

The manufacturing material is versatile and can be adapted to space and needs.

Marble
Crystal
Ceramic stoneware
Acrylic
Aluminum
Stone

In the Turkish bath, a coating is usually used in noble materials that adapt to the environment and guarantee high quality, stable construction and reduction of energy expenditure, in addition to being hygienic and easy to clean.

Heat generation in the Turkish bath

Unlike the traditional sauna, the Turkish bath generates heat from the water evaporation. It has devices that bring water to a boil and convert it into steam released through the air. The steam bath is airtight so its system helps the accumulation of moisture.
