Healthy pirtis ABC. Scotland

Date: 2025-10-14, 18:00
Organizer : Lithuanian Bath Academy

Short practical introduction to Ltihuanian pirtis in Japan with a bit of local flavour - we used local whisks and local beauty treatment products, but followed a clasical Lithuanian steam bath scenario, which has 4 stages: 

First round (Winter)
Soft warming up. Making friends with the space.

Second round (Spring)
Remind our bodies they are liquid! Promoting of sweating, skin washing. Salt. Soft wisking.

Third round (Summer)
Hot procedures. Hot steam. Whisking.

Fourth round (Autumn)
Beauty treatments, masks. Deep scrub, massage. Honey. Coming back to the body. Silence.

It is a pleasant and fun way to start your pirtis experience!

Themes covered

• Healthy steam bath procedure

  The first practical theme(topic) of the Bath Masters course  is the Healthy Sauna Procedure. It is dedicated to learning about a healthy, bioresonant sauna. During the sauna, we go through a complete sauna procedure consisting of 4 stages:

  • introductory warm-up
  • sweating stimulation
  • Soaking in the steam and self-bathing

  This workshop is essential for those wishing to continue their studies and further their knowledge, but it is also available simply to try a healthy sauna treatment in a good sauna (often with a good gourmet sauna stove).

• Self whisking

  Important theme and one of major aspects of sauna education that is very often neglected by even prominent bath mastership teachers. Yet it is even more complex then whisking other person.

  This theme covers

  • initial warming of the feet
  • enhancing blood circulation
  • self massage with whisks
  • self whisking of shoulders, sides, back
  • ergonomics of self whisking
  • different postures: sitting, laying
• SWS
