Your sauna experience

A traditional sauna experience includes several rounds of warming up in the sauna and cooling down, resting and hydrating. You should only stay in the sauna for as long as it feels comfortable for you, but we would recommend not staying longer than 20 minutes each round. It can be as little as 3-5min if this feels right for you - you are here to relax, this is not a competition. Take it easy and enjoy!

We have prepared some sample schedules in the FAQ section. After your sauna session, you can rinse yourself with cold water. Make sure to wrap yourself in warm clothes especially in autumn and winter and drink plenty of water after your sauna.
