The Timeless Ritual | Traditional Sauna
Authentic Finnish Heat for Mind and Body.
Experience the power of the Traditional Sauna. Immerse yourself in the classic sanctuary of high heat and aromatic steam to purify your body and sharpen your senses.
Step into a tradition that spans centuries. Unlike infrared therapy, our Traditional Finnish Sauna focuses on heating the air around you using a high-capacity volcanic stone heater.
This creates a high-temperature, low-humidity environment that challenges the body and rewards the soul. The centrepiece of this experience is the ritual of “Löyly”—the moment you pour water over the hot stones, releasing a wave of therapeutic steam that intensifies the heat and clears the spirit.
How It Works
By heating the room to temperatures between 75°C and 95°C, the traditional sauna creates an intense environment that forces the body to cool itself through heavy perspiration. This process stimulates the cardiovascular system, mimicking the effects of moderate exercise, while the high heat helps to relax muscles and quiet a racing mind.
The Benefits of Traditional Heat
- Intense Detoxification: The rapid rise in skin temperature triggers a heavy, cleansing sweat that helps flush impurities and surface-level toxins from the pores.
- Cardiovascular Conditioning: The high heat increases your heart rate and dilates blood vessels, improving overall circulation and supporting heart health.
- Respiratory Clarity: The optional use of steam (Löyly) helps to humidify the airways, clearing sinuses and soothing the respiratory system.
- Endorphin Release: The “shock” of the high heat followed by a cool-down period triggers the release of endorphins—the body’s natural “feel-good” chemicals.
The Authentic Sauna Cycle
To get the most out of the traditional experience, we recommend the Heat-Cold-Rest cycle:
The Heat (10–15 mins)
Relax on a towel and breathe deeply. Add water to the stones as desired for a burst of humidity.
The Cold (2 mins)
Take a cool shower immediately after exiting. This closes the pores and provides an instant energy boost.
The Rest (10–15 mins)
Relax and rehydrate. This allows your heart rate to return to normal before your next round.
Which one is for you?
Expert Recommendation: For the ultimate wellness day, try our Traditional Sauna first to open the pores and boost circulation, followed by a cool shower, then an Infrared session later for deep muscle relaxation.
