Sauna & Cold Tub FAQs


How long is a sauna session? Sauna bookings are 1 hour long

Do I stay in sitting in the sauna for the whole hour? No, you should only stay in the sauna for about 10-15min (20min max). This means you will have about 3 sittings Within the hour booking

How long do I need to sauna for to get the benefits? Studies on the benefits of traditional sauna suggest that an accumulated total of 90min (2 sauna sessions) in the sauna per week is enough to kick off the cascade of beneficial longer term effects of controlled heat exposure (check out the full list of benefits here) but even one sauna per week has immediate benefit on your skin, stress, sleep and mood!

Do I have to cold shower or go in the cold tub? No, you can simply cool off in between sittings if you prefer.

If I go in the cold tub, how long should I stay in to get the benefits? Research is constantly being updated, and the length of time may vary between person to person and between genders. But a general rule is about 3min in the cold to activate the beneficial responses within your body.

What do I wear in the sauna? Swimwear or shorts are required. It may also help to wear a 'towel turban' to keep your head cooler and protect your hair from regular heat exposure. Removing jewelry and watches is also recommended. 

What does 'public sauna' mean? The public sessions are open to anyone to book if there is available space in the session time. This simply means you will share the sauna with people you potentially haven't met before, just like sharing a yoga class.
