  • We love sharing sauna experiences with Children over 6 years old. Children between the ages of 7 and 13 must be closely supervised by a legal guardian or parent and should limit their time in sauna to 5-10 minutes per session. Please remember this is a space of relaxation. Private or family affinity groups are always a fun option as well.

  • Rule # 1 → LISTEN TO YOUR BODY! Beyond that, most of the research around Contrast Therapy suggests 5-20 min in the sauna followed by cold plunge / cool down. Best results are found doing three rounds and ending on cold.

  • Bookings can typically be made up to 15 minutes prior to a session. There is a 12 hour cancelation window and you will be credited a gift card for your next booking.
