Elamus Spa is a new member of the Aufguss organisation, and as a result the sauna masters had the honour of presenting Estonia as a country with a strong sauna tradition, though not yet of competing officially. They will go to measure themselves against the world&#8217;s sauna masters in autumn 2024 in the Netherlands.<\/p>\n<div class=\"es-post__gallery\">\n<figure><img width=\"800\" height=\"534\"
