Sauna OMC is one of the major players in sauna here in Sweden and they say this about their sauna crystals: " According to our recommendations, only 2-4 crystals are required together with a scoop of water to create a fresh and long-lasting scent that opens up the airways. Unlike other menthol crystals and sauna oils, our crystals are naturally produced in one of the world's safest labs through a careful crystallization process where the crystals are extracted from peppermint leaves. There are chemically produced crystals, but we are known for having our products organic and natural. " They also say that menthol can have many health-promoting effects, including pain relief, improved mental focus, relief from colds, nasal congestion and headaches and much more. A real thunder product in other words!
The sauna crystals from Sauna OMC come in a handy resealable package that takes up little space. We recommend not dosing with your fingers, as the crystals contain pure menthol which tends to dissolve a little on your fingers as soon as you put them in a warm hand (which is not at all pleasant if you happen to rub your forehead afterwards). However, it is perfectly fine to pour carefully directly from the bag.
If you have not used sauna crystals before, we recommend starting carefully, as they have good properties. However, if you have been generous with crystals in your bucket, a tip is to close your eyes when the first wave of ice comes, as it is usually the strongest.
We really like the ice crystals from Sauna OMC and we appreciate that they are 100% organic!
