Linen is a very common fabric in Latvia, not only for use in Pirts but also to be worn day to day and for special occasions… and there are some very good reasons for this..

In Pirts, linen products have great benefits because Linen is very breathable, it feels very comfortable to wear, it dries quickly between treatments, it’s a natural fabric made from fibers of the Flax plant, which contributes to the overall philosophy of Pirts (connecting you with nature and natural products) and it is naturally antibacterial, which supports good hygiene of the fabric. 

Linen is also a very special material because it has been measured to resonate at a very high frequency (5000 hz), which is 50 times the natural frequency of the human body. So when we wear linen, it has been shown to significantly enhance the body's energy field and raise its capacity for healing.
