But have other questions about the process. I have read one is to bring water to the sauna for washing before. Am I correct? Do you bring soap for washing? Or is this just a rinse and wipe? Also, I understand an occasional run to the lake for a cold dip is traditional. I know this would not include dressing, but would it be usual to put on shoes? I have sensitive feet and walking on rocks sounds painful. I'm sorry if these questions sound silly. I'm just trying to sort out the details on my head from what I have read so I fit in. Tak
