Level 0 - Sauna-User 

Level 0 is the starting point of the International Sauna Qualification System. It is designed for sauna guests who want to use sauna facilities with greater confidence, comfort and understanding.
Many people enjoy sauna bathing regularly but have never received clear guidance on how heat, cooling and recovery should work together. This course provides a practical introduction to health-oriented sauna use. It explains how the body responds to heat, why individual tolerance matters, how to cool down appropriately and why rest is an essential part of every sauna session.
Participants learn how to structure a balanced sauna visit, from preparation and heat exposure to cooling, drying, rewarming and recovery. The course also addresses common mistakes, such as staying too long in the heat, cooling too intensely, ignoring warning signs or starting another sauna round before the body has recovered.
Level 0 does not require previous knowledge. It is suitable for beginners, regular sauna guests, wellness visitors and anyone who wants to make sauna bathing safer, more comfortable and more beneficial.
