This presentation by Dalva Lamminm盲ki and Maaria Al茅n explores the Finnish sauna whisk, known as vihta or vasta (using vihta here). A symbol of Finnish folklore, the vihta plays a vital role in folk healing rituals, functioning both as a tool for divination and a method of plant-based medicine. Its use creates a multisensory experience, enhancing both physical and mental well-being. Learn about the cultural significance, traditional practices, and the various ways to incorporate the vihta into your private sauna sessions for a more meaningful and restorative experience.
