On average, in Finland, according to Koskenniemi, we can follow the sauna etiquette well.
Although some saunas are more accurate than others, disagreements are agreed. And if there is a reason, Finns will be able to address disturbing behavior.
Although shared and general saunas mostly have their own written rules, sauna also involves non -pronounced rules.
According to Janne Koskenniemi, Executive Director of the Finnish Sauna Association, the sauna is primarily a place for cleaning and calm.
Most common etiquette errors are loud behavior and steam races.
“For decades, saunas have welded sauna groups with a legendary reputation to throw a hundred liters of steam and compete there,” says Koskenniemi.
It is a good idea to ensure your moods always from the saunas before throwing a steam. Fair saunas also fill the steam water when leaving for the next sauna.
There is also an attempt to be flexible from the sauna label by bringing a beer can to the rafts.

The importance of the sauna has changed over the decades. According to Koskenniemi, the boom for public saunas is now going on: saunas have been planned for the Helsinki Beach Trails, Oulu, Rauma and Jyväskylä.
« We will return to urbanization, where there was no room for our own showers in the residential buildings. This was the only place to wash the public saunas. »
Mixing between social classes happened in due course and is happening now.
« We go to the sauna without clothes, and without clothes, a person has no title, and cannot be looked at the thickness of the wallet. People are just people. »
