Bring authentic Nordic sauna tradition into your home with the Rento Birch Sauna Whisk. Expertly dried and carefully packaged, this classic birch “vihta” retains its fresh, green birch aroma and lets you enjoy the circulation-boosting benefits of whisking all year round.
Whisking with birch branches is one of the oldest Finnish sauna rituals, known for its relaxing effect, pleasant scent and gentle skin stimulation.
How to prepare and use
- Soak before the sauna
Remove the whisk from its plastic packaging. Place it in warm (not hot) water for about 30–40 minutes so the branches and leaves become soft and flexible. - Bring the soaking water to the sauna
Put the whisk and its soaking water into a bucket or bowl in the sauna. The birch-infused water can be used on the stones to add a gentle birch scent to the steam.
- Start whisking when your skin is warm
When you’ve warmed up on the bench, gently whisk yourself (or a partner) with light strokes from feet toward the heart. Adjust the intensity to what feels comfortable.
- After the sauna
Lightly rinse the whisk, shake off excess water and hang it to dry in a cool, airy place. Do not leave it on the hot benches or stove. Once dry, it can be reused following the same instructions.
