Visiting SOMPASAUNA: Helsinki's ILLEGAL Finnish sauna
Check how SOMPASAUNA looks like. FIND IT! SOMPASAUNA is the illegal sauna of Helsinki which later became legal. The Finnish Sauna is well known around the world and the Finns are literally mad about it! In the good sense! Going to sauna for the Finns is like visiting the toilet for you. Speaking of which, most of the flats/houses have saunas in the bathrooms. Finland is quite a big country but has a population of only 5.3 million! For that population, there are around 2 million saunas around Finland. That is remarkable and can only speak of how important the sauna is for the Finns. And with all those saunas.. I went to an illegal one :D
Sompasauna was firstly illegal, then the government stopped the access (or tore it down) but later it restored it. Now, Sompasauna is still run by volunteers, but the place even has a website.

SOMPASAUNA TAKAS (Bring back the sauna)
Sompasauna was the only really public sauna that I knew. It has appeared there every summer since 2011. Yesterday city officials took it down without a warning. I have been active in some self-organized public space projects (like squatted houses) and Sompasauna was one of the most working, harmless and beautiful I have seen.
Bring the sauna back.

Christmas signals the start of the sauna season in Finland +RE-SENDING WITH AMMENDMENTS+
(12 Dec 2018) LEADIN:
In Finland Christmas is a time when you relax, eat, drink, be merry with your friends and then retreat to the sauna.
Public saunas are becoming so popular again that they're being introduced to Christmas markets.
STORYLINE:
When you've had enough of the rigors of Christmas shopping, it's time to stop and sweat away the stress.
There are estimated 2 million saunas in Finland, for population of just five and a half million according to the Finnish Sauna Society.
Kari Virtanen has the task of keeping this sauna working efficiently.
He says: When people started building saunas in their own homes, they (public saunas) were not so popular any more. But now they are again coming. People are noticing that in public saunas you probably get better löyly (steam rising from the sauna stove), better feeling, and you can also meet out people and socialise with in those saunas.
Virtanen is operating a continuous fire stove sauna.
It's like a stove which requires a fire to be constantly stoked to heat the rocks.
Virtanen prefers saunas heated by birch tree wood because he believes it gives the optimal amount of heat for its volume.
There are also smoke saunas and electric powered ones.
Mikko Mykkänen has an alcohol distillery at the market.
Today he's come to relax and detox.
He explains: Like yesterday, we had a little Christmas party, so its very nice to go and sweat a bit and then you feel yourself human again. But it's also for relaxation and getting rid of getting your thoughts together and enjoying bad toxins coming out of your body.
According to Mykkänen many Finnish people think the sauna is a good place to do business: Because at sauna you can trust other people. There are no ties, or different clothes, everybody is as he is, a human, and it's very easy to negotiate at sauna.
Whether it's for ritual seasonal cleansing, contemplation in solitude, or making business deals, the Finns use of saunas is diverse.
Some are to be found in urban apartments, some outside summer cottages, some can even be found in old phone booths, or tents.
Christmas Market oragniser Emma Lumme says they're growing in number: It's more popular that ever, it seems like it. And its about, kind a mixing old and new traditions here in Helsinki. We have lots of young people so its, kind of, wise to do that. We like to think that it's like urban retreat where we calm down and have space to breathe.
Not everyone understands the Finnish passion for saunas.
A French visitor Alice says: This is crazy, having a sauna in the Christmas Market. I'm here for a conference, and they were match making, and meetings were also in sauna. It was a sauna village, which is so crazy.
Introducing Alice to the practice of saunas is Matti from Lapland.
She ladles the water onto the stones, but the resulting heat is a little to much for Alice who says: Oh! This is so hot. I'm burning!.
After the heat of the sauna many people run outside for a breath of fresh air.
Often if they're in the countryside, people will take a dip in a frozen lake, or roll around in the snow.
Urban public sauna goers can enjoy cooling off in the Helsinki air, and the occasional smiles of other market visitors.
Although public baths have long history, and could be found in many cultures around the world, the word sauna comes from an ancient Finnish word, referring to bathhouse itself.
It is the only Finish word which is in parlance internationally according to Jarmo Lehtola from the Finish Sauna Society.

EL MEJOR SAUNA DEL MUNDO ESTA EN FINLANDIA
Sauna extremo, Ice swimming. Todo lo que necesitas saber del sauna finlandés. Suscríbete
No hay duda que el mejor sauna del mundo está en Finlandia, una actividad por la cual el país se ha hecho conocido internacionalmente. Experimentar el sauna en Finlandia puede acercarte a la legendaria experiencia del humo (smoke sauna) o de los saunas electricos. En este video veremos saunas en Helsinki, saunas en Nuuksio, Saunas en Hossa y otros rincones finlandeses.
Hay saunas públicos y saunas privados. Se especula mucho sobre cómo usar el sauna pero lo cierto es que aquí mismo en Finlandia las teorías se reducen al mínimo concluyendo en que lo esencial es pasar un rato agradable y disfrutarlo al máximo. Como se ve en el video la experiencia mejora aún más en contacto con la naturaleza sumergiéndose en lagos helados o revolcándose en la nieve.
Contrario a esto, Timo Kaukonen participo de un imprudente reto llevando el sauna extremo a condiciones sobrehumanas, recibiendo algunas lesiones y arriesgando su vida. La noticia llego a los medios y concientizó a la gente sobre el uso razonable.
Fuera de excepciones como esta los beneficios del sauna son mejorar la circulación, mejorar la limpieza del organismo, expulsión de toxinas, bajar de peso.
El sauna desnudo se practica casi como regla general en saunas divididos por genero con excepciones mixtas. En saunas públicos se puede sugerir usar ropa de baño.

Finns flock to a free outdoor public sauna
(18 Dec 2016) Several hundred people have already visited the free 'Christmas Sauna' in Helsinki city centre, according to organisers of this annual winter tradition.
The 'Christmas Sauna', located in the city's historic Tori Quarters, has been placed in the courtyard of the City Hall this year.
There is no entrance fee, and lockers as well as changing rooms and a washroom are available for guests.
Going to sauna is part of traditional Finnish culture, as almost every family have a sauna in their home.
More than 1,000 people visited the 'Christmas Sauna' in 2015.
Organisers expect to exceed that number, as numbers of visitors seeking this traditional Finnish experience grow every year.
