To Steam or Not to Steam, that is the question

Since the tender age of 18, I have been a member at a gym of some sort or another. I do everything from group classes, treadmill, free weights (never was a fan of the weight machines), swimming and relaxing in the sauna after a good swim. One amenity that I could never stomach was the steam rooms! The idea of sitting on that ceramic tile in all of that mold, mildew and viruses such the Staph made my skin crawl. And lets face it, most gym employees aren't the most motivated when it comes to cleaning. So I just avoided the rooms altogher.


However, recently I went to a gym where, when I walked past the steam room I actually stopped and looked. No tile. No grout. Instead was this new "futuristic" looking steam room that looked clean and inviting. I stepped in the steam room and sat for a spell actually enjoying myself, not feeling like was being being attacted by agents that should not ever come in contact with the human body. I loved this new "hybrid steam room"!


Okay, okay, I'll come clean....I work for Am-Finn Sauna and Steam. But was I described above really did happen. When I was brought on to work for Am-Finn I knew I needed to get some first hand product knowledge. Luckily for me, the gym I go to had 2 new locations that did install the new hybrid steam room. And according to the regular members at those gyms, they love the new steam rooms.


But don't take my word for it, check out the article that Club Solutions wrote up about the new Hybrid Steam Rooms. I'm not the only one who loves them!
