History od Sauna Herbal Cup
Project introduction and history
In 2013, a competition focused on the use of natural products in the sauna was created in the Czech Republic. In addition to classic performances in the sauna, there is also a peeling cup, a competition of peeling and beauty procedures in the steam bath. The competition took place in the years 2013, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2022. The finals were always held in the Czech Republic (successively: Relax Centrum Kolštejn, Hrubá Voda, Wellness Hotel Frymburk, Aqualand Moravia, Aquapalace Praha). From the beginning, the competition has been international with participants from many countries.
Since 2018, the competition has also been held in foreign countries (national rounds).
We are returning nature to the sauna, creating a new concept of the saunamaster’s work.
Connection with nature, harmony and humility, imaginative use of traditional and new procedures and bringing scents and natural products into the sauna are important and central.
