Birch Leaves (Vihta or vasta)
A thick bunch of birch twigs, approx. 40 cm in lenght. Used to slap on oneself to promote blood circulation and cleanse the skin.

The vihta is not used as a whip, although it may so seem to the inexperienced sauna-goer. It is not supposed to hurt, but to make the skin tingle for a while. In the United States, where birch is not as common as in Finland, some people have started using cedar with good results.
