Description
The venik can induce feelings of confusion, curiosity, and horror in the average newcomer. It is easy to see how whipping oneself and others with a bundle of tree branches can seem a little barbaric, but anyone who has been brave enough to surrender themselves to the leafy lashes of a venik massage will tell you of the incredible relaxation it brings. But the venik is much more than just a tool for massage; it comes with its own set of health benefits and in many ways it has become the symbol of the Russian bathhouse, as it is such a unique aspect of our culture. A venik is a bundle of leafy tree twigs that is used to draw the maximum amount of heat and steam to a person's body during the final stages of steaming in the sauna. Veniks can either be dried or fresh and are most commonly made out of birch or oak, though other species of tree are also used. Each type of venik has its own set of health benefits and is used accordingly. The leaves of linden are soft and gentle. Linden (lime-tree) sauna whisk has Vitamin C that improves immune system. It helps to relieve headache and has a mild diuretic effect. Linden leaves have calming, wound healing effect.

Directions
Take a bucket and fill it with warm water verging on being hot. Fully submerge your venik in the water and leave it there for at least one hour. In the meantime, make sure you go in for a few steam sessions before the venik massage begins. It's important to get your body accustomed to the heat before the massage, because exposing yourself to too much heat before your body is prepared for it can cause overheating and lightheadedness. When you feel sufficiently steamed up, grab the venik and head back to the parilka. Once you're inside the parilka make sure you amp up the heat by adding water to the hot rocks. Once you feel the newly formed steam in the air, it's time to begin the massage. You can perform a massage on yourself if no one else is around but ideally you should have someone else perform it on you.
