Going away for the weekend soon, the Hotel has these facilities and I'd love to use them but not sure if its safe. I've recently had a few dizzy spells which also gives me doubts.

Hello,

Well, I don't know but I have used jacuzzis,Saunas(being Scandinavian...)and steam rooms as well as hot tubs (the outdoors tubs, when it has been about -20 degrees..)and I have not had any problems. . We, my family and I, used to rent a whole department for Christmas, and I go in all the various saunas and jacuzzis and no problems at all.Very relaxing in fact.Also, used to have an outdoors hot tub and to sit in the warm water and enjoy a Northern Light is great!

Now, if you are a bit worried, just go in for a short while and be next to the door, prepared to exit. I would think that steam rooms are better than dry saunas, but I am no expert. If you dare use either of them, I really hope you can enjoy it and have a nice time!

Be sure to drink plenty of water.

Hello

I suffer from PV. Use the steam room at local leisure centre. It helps a lot as I have a problem with body itch after contact with water. If I use the steam room after a swim the itch is much less of a problem. I would not hesitate to use the facilities on offer.
