what to expect during an open sauna session
during an open sauna session, we greet you and show you where everything is and how it all works. there is a changing room with toilet/shower and room to store your clothes and change into swimwear
then you can make your own way into the sauna and let the heat do its magic! immerse yourself in the experience, gently releasing tension, quieting the mind, and beginning your journey into deep physical and emotional relaxation
we recommend three 15-minute hot rounds, with optional cold plunge (or gentle pause) in between
notice how different you feel after a session!

sauna + cold plunge – why contrast therapy helps
alternating heat and cold is known as contrast therapy, an ancient practice with growing scientific support. like massage (another ancient practice supported by science), warmth from the sauna increases circulation, relaxes muscles, and supports parasympathetic (rest-and-digest) activity. brief cold exposure then stimulates circulation, sharpens sensory awareness, and can help regulate the stress response.
together, heat and cold gently exercise the nervous system – encouraging adaptability, recovery, and resilience. many people report improved sleep, reduced muscle soreness, and a greater sense of calm and clarity after contrast sessions.
cold plunge is always optional — this is not about pushing limits, but about listening to the body and improving health and resilience over time.
