Enjoy the benefits of the traditional Finnish sauna experience brought right to your door!
The Finnish sauna experience boasts a rich history spanning millennia, backed by extensive research into its remarkable benefits. In Finland, a nation with a population of 5.5 million, the presence of over 3 million saunas is emblematic of a culture that has ranked as the Happiest Country on Earth for six consecutive years. Saunas are commonly referred to as 'the people's pharmacy,' a phrase that embodies their profound impact on preventative health and well-being.
Saunas aren't a mere luxury in Finland, they're an integral part of daily life, providing mental and physical rejuvenation. Saunas are where stress dissolves, celebrations unfold, skin finds rejuvenation, friendships thrive, circulation/immune function receives a boost, everyday life finds a moment of pause, and both mind and body undergo a revitalizing cleanse. We draw inspiration from this tradition through our commitment to well-being and community!

Finnish Sauna Practice: A Healthy Tradition to Follow
-
The key rule in the sauna is to pay attention to how you feel.
-
Sauna time includes taking breaks and going between hot and cool places.
-
You begin in the hot room, but how long you stay is up to you. When you feel it's time to leave, you do.
-
We add water to the sauna rocks to make steam, but we always check with others if they're okay with it.
-
After the heat, there are many ways to cool down: you can sit outside, use cool water, take a shower, roll in the snow (if it's winter), or have a cold plunge.
-
We usually do this cycle 3-4 times. It's important to take your time to cool down and remember to drink water.
-
When you're done, it's time for a shower with soap.
-
After the sauna, it's best to eat and drink to replace what you've lost in your body.
-
Finally, after the sauna, you can relax, read, or chat with friends. It's a great feeling!
