Birch Sauna Whisks - Pack of 3
Birch Sauna Whisks - Pack of 3
A sauna whisk (known as a ‘vihta’ or ‘vasta’ in Finnish) is made up of fine, leafy tree-branch tips bound together in a bunch and used for tapping and brushing the body to increase circulation and enrich the skin with therapeutic oils and vitamins.
Our traditional birch sauna whisks are sustainably foraged and handcrafted in the Dyfi Valley

Sauna Bathing with a Traditional Whisk
Before use, soak the whisk in lukewarm water for 35 minutes.
Use the whisk once your skin has warmed up from the sauna heat - we find firm tapping and gentle brushing motions most effective.
Whisks can be used 1-2 times. After your sauna, give the whisk a light rinse and leave it to hang in a cool, dry space if you wish to reuse it a second time.
We also recommend using the birch-infused water the whisk has been soaking in for dousing the stove to create aromatic steam.
