Yeah, mandatory sauna license. No temperature over 80 degrees. Brown envelopes for no raids. Protection money! Extra added fee from PEA. ASO

Dr Hannibal Lector probably thinks she’s done just about rite!all jokes aside rip to the lady and my condolences to the bereaved 

Why do you need to go to a sauna in Thailand. Walk sweating under the sun will take away your desire to visit the sauna.

One strategically placed CCTV camera could monitor the sauna for both illness and people giving others unwanted attention. Most gyms already do this in other areas.

 

Have to wait for someone to care for their customers in Thailand.

 

What if you want to have a sex in there? I wouldn't feel comfortable if there was a camera watching me.

You are right, it´s not a hassle, but I don´t know. Do they in other countries? I have been taking saunas in Sweden, England, Germany and Spain. Never had anyone come check.

 

Yeah but that was before "the new normal".

What safety protocols do we need extra in Thailand for using a sauna. Silly talking again. This is an accident that could have happened to a person anywhere in the world. They can´t go around and check if someone collapse in different places. However, RIP to the woman, and let´s hope there is not anything more to it.

She may have passed out for unrelated reasons and then died of the heat. She may have fallen asleep, but that's unlikely since the pain of the burns would likely have woken her. It may have been heat exhaustion, which would not have been anyone's fault. She may have lost track of the time. Nobody here is a doctor or pathologist, so none of the opinions about this have any merit, other than speculation.

I had a sauna in my house in Seattle and there was a timer on the outside. Up to 30 min If I remember right.

I'm building a new house in Edmonton and my sauna has a timer on it, seems like a no brainer to me

Followed by sauna crackdowns for 2 weeks and then a complete relaxation of the rules. Once the media has shifted to something else then it goes back to normal.

Well quite, it’s health and safety gone mad !
 

Just think if they had a standard policy (employed by many venues in more safety conscious jurisdictions) that a member of staff quickly checked the sauna every 30 minutes, then the woman might have survived. Hardly a major hassle for staff to do that is it ?

QUITE right

Not if she died from a heart attack.

Are you required at that fitness center to inform staff on using the sauna or does one just go in say if your a member or whatever ?
