Elevate your health

experience the benefits of sauna, the nordic way

A lot of people love the Finnish sauna experience for its numerous benefits! The combination of heat and chill from the cold plunge in the river or tub, improves cardiovascular health and relieves physical pain. Studies show that it improves immune function, stress relief, and sleep, too. 

How to enjoy our finnish sauna in northeast ct

Arrive + get settled

Your attendant, Gary, will walk you through everything you need to know to enjoy your sauna experience. Arrive with your swimsuit and towel, and we’ll have the wood stove warming so you can ladle water onto the stones and enjoy soothing steam.

heat up + relax

Relax in the heat for 10–20 minutes. As you sit on your towel, sweat and dry heat releases impurities and triggers healthy, physiological responses. Pour water on the hot stones, feel the steam roll up.

Cool down + reset

Listen to your body for when it's time to step outside to cool down or take a cold plunge. Allow your body time to adjust, rehydrate with water (2–4 glasses recommended), and repeat the cycle as desired—listening to your body throughout.
