• You can manage the 'löyly' (sauna steam) by slowly pouring water on the rocks with the ladle provided

• Before creating more 'löyly', please check the comfort of the people you are sharing the sauna with

• Before leaving and re-entering the sauna, we recommend doing so in groups to reduce the amount of steam that is lost when the door is opened many times repeatedly.

• Please make use of the facilities and relaxation areas during your 90-minute session, and kindly begin changing and preparing to leave once your session time has ended.

We recommend bringing minimal personal belongings with you. We have enough wooden storage shelves available for every person in each session but these shelves are not lockable or supervised and personal items are left at your own risk.

• Wood fired sauna

• Plunge pool (Sometimes cold, sometimes natural depending on the session type you are booking)

• Outdoor cold shower

• Changing facilities

• Dry compost toilet

We like something like this:

shower > cold plunge > sauna > rest & hydrate > repeat + finishing with a plunge or cold shower before ending your session.

But don't over think it, just enjoy whatever makes you feel good!

Yes! A lot of people visit us because the have a strong aversion to the cold and they always leave feeling very happy. If you would like some guidance, we recommend booking one of our introduction to contrast therapy workshops.

No. We tried welcoming dogs in the beginning and it created tension for the owners and disrupted the other guests, especially when more than one guest brings their dog which is not easy to predict or control.
