Many people don't sweat unless they sweat. It may be the first time to sweat, and the sweat glands have not been opened yet. Don't worry about this situation, as long as you steam a few times more, you will sweat faster. Moreover, with the increase of sweating times, the sweat after sweating has no odor, because it has penetrated into the fat layer, people will feel relaxed and their skin will become smooth after sweating.
