The most important terms regarding sauna and wellness.
Salt scrub
This can be done in the sauna as well as in the steam bath. There are various varieties, but basically you rub mineral salt into your whole body after the heating-up phase. (Avoiding your eyes, genitals or wounds!)
In some saunas you rub the salt into your body inside the sauna room, in others guests do this outside. Following this, more water is poured onto the stones. The result is noticeably smoother skin, as the outer skin cells are scrubbed away.
