Saunas have been enjoyed for generations—and for good reason. They’re not only a great way to relax, but also a simple and natural way to support your overall health and wellbeing. Investing in a sauna means creating your own space to unwind, recharge, and feel your best every day.

🌿 Relax, Recharge & Feel Good

After a long day, a sauna gives you a quiet space to switch off and relax. The soothing heat helps calm your mind, ease tension, and leave you feeling refreshed—like having your own spa at home.

❤️ Support Your Body from Within

When you sit in a sauna, your body warms up and your circulation improves. Your heart rate gently increases (similar to light exercise), helping your body feel more energised and balanced.

Regular sauna use may help to:

• Support heart health
• Improve blood circulation
• Maintain healthy blood pressure and cholesterol

Different studies have shown that a regular sauna use is linked to better heart health and a longer life.

💪 Recovery & Relief

The heat helps relax muscles, reduce stiffness, and ease everyday aches and pains—making it ideal after exercise or a busy day.

🧼 Cleanse & Refresh

Sweating helps cleanse your skin and leaves you feeling fresh. It also supports your body’s natural processes, helping you feel renewed inside and out.

😴 Better Sleep & Wellbeing

A sauna session can help your body fully relax, making it easier to fall asleep and enjoy deeper, more restful sleep. It can also help reduce stress and support your overall mood.

🧠 Long-Term Health Benefits

Studies suggest that regular sauna use may support long-term health, including heart and even brain health. Consistent use has been linked to a reduced risk of certain health conditions and improved overall wellbeing.

🏠 A Lifestyle Upgrade

With your own sauna, you can enjoy all these benefits whenever you like—no travel, no appointments. It adds comfort, convenience, and a touch of luxury to your home.

🌡️ Simple to Use

You don’t need extreme heat to enjoy the benefits:

• Around 60–80°C for 10 minutes is enough
• Even lower temperatures can still help you relax

The key is to use your sauna regularly and enjoy the experience.

Choosing the right sauna comes down to what feels best for you and how you want to use it. Here’s a simple guide to help you decide:

🔥 Traditional Saunas – Indoor & Outdoor Spa Experience

This is the classic sauna most people picture. It uses high heat and can create steam, giving you that authentic spa or gym feeling. It’s more intense then infra-red sauna, but very rewarding if you enjoy a deeper sweat.

Transitional saunas give you the flexibility to enjoy a sauna in the way that suits your home and lifestyle best. Whether you want something inside your home or a relaxing space in your garden, there are plenty of options to choose from.

🏠 Indoor Saunas

Perfect for convenience and year-round use, indoor saunas fit easily into spare rooms or dedicated wellness spaces. They let you enjoy a relaxing sauna session anytime without stepping outside.

🌳 Outdoor Saunas

Outdoor saunas create a peaceful escape right in your garden. They offer a more natural, spa-like experience where you can unwind and enjoy the fresh air.

✨ Designed for Your Lifestyle

With a range of sizes and styles available, you can choose a sauna that fits your space, preferences, and how you want to relax.

👉 Best for: A traditional sauna gives you a true sauna experience and best for higher heat lovers. 

🌿 Infrared Saunas

If you’re looking for something simple, comfortable, and easy to use, an infrared sauna is a great choice. It heats your body deeply but gently, making it perfect for regular use at home. It also warms up quickly and is more energy-efficient.

👉 Best for: Relaxation, daily use, and smaller spaces

⚖️ Hybrid Saunas – The Best of Both

Not sure which to choose? A hybrid sauna gives you both options in one. You can enjoy a gentle infrared session or switch to a more intense traditional heat whenever you like.

👉 Best for: Flexibility and long-term value

Sauna is a family tradition! In countries like Estonia🇪🇪 and Finland🇫🇮 sauna is a deeply embedded family tradition used for bonding, relaxation, and overall well-being. Many children are introduced to sauna at a young age—sometimes even in infancy—as part of normal family life.

How families keep it safe and comfortable:

• Lower temperatures (around 50–60°C)
• Shorter sessions (just a few minutes for younger children)
• Sitting on lower benches where it’s cooler
• Always supervised by an adult
• Children leave immediately if they feel too warm
• Drinking water before and after

The key idea:
It’s not about long or intense heat sessions—it’s about a calm, relaxed experience that’s introduced gradually and always focused on comfort.

Using essential oils in the sauna is a great way to enhance relaxation, refresh your senses, and elevate your overall wellness experience. With the right oils and proper use, you can turn your sauna session into a calming spa-like ritual.

🧴 Choosing the Right Essential Oils

When selecting essential oils for your sauna, it’s important to focus on quality, safety, and personal preference.

🌱 Purity & Quality

Always choose 100% natural, high-quality essential oils. Synthetic oils may not provide the same benefits and can sometimes cause irritation.

🌬️ Effects & Personal Preference

Different oils create different experiences, depending on how you want to feel:

• Eucalyptus & peppermint – refreshing and helps open airways
• Lavender & chamomile – calming and deeply relaxing
• Lemon & bergamot – uplifting and energising
• Tea tree – cleansing and refreshing

💧 How to Use Essential Oils in the Sauna

To ensure safe and effective use:

• Mix 5–10 drops of essential oil into a bowl of water
• Pour the mixture over hot sauna stones using a ladle
• Always dilute oils in water—never apply directly to stones or skin
• Start with a small amount, as heat intensifies the fragrance

🌿 For Anti-Inflammatory Support & Airway Relief

If you are using essential oils for anti-inflammatory benefits or general wellbeing, it is recommended to use around 15 drops in total.

Suitable oils include:

• Lavender – calming and relaxing
• Chamomile – soothing and gentle on the body
• Eucalyptus – refreshing and helps support clearer airways

Eucalyptus Benefits

Eucalyptus is especially popular because it may help clear and open the airways, making breathing feel easier—particularly during colds or congestion. Its refreshing aroma is enhanced by the sauna’s heat and steam.

If jumping into a lake or rolling in the snow isn’t an option, you can still get that refreshing contrast at home.

Try adding a cold plunge to your routine—it’s a great way to elevate your sauna experience. You can also keep it simple and fun with a cold bucket challenge, a paddling pool, or even a garden hose.

A little burst of cold adds excitement, boosts the experience, and makes your sauna session even more rewarding.

What happens to your body

• Heat (sauna): Blood vessels widen → muscles relax, heart rate increases
• Cold (plunge/shower): Blood vessels tighten → body cools, alertness rises

Switching between the two creates a kind of “vascular workout.”

✅ The Golden Rule

It’s not about pushing limits—it’s about feeling good.

Saunas are generally very easy and low-maintenance. With just a few simple habits, you can keep your sauna clean, fresh, and in great condition for many years.

🕒 After Each Use

A quick routine is all you need:

• Leave the door open for around 30 minutes to let moisture escape
• Wipe down benches with a damp cloth to remove sweat
• Using towels on the benches helps protect the wood and makes cleaning even easier

🧽 Regular Cleaning (Bi-Weekly)

To keep everything fresh:

• Sweep or vacuum the floor
• Wipe benches and surfaces with a mild soap or sauna-safe cleaner
• Always avoid harsh chemicals like bleach, as they can damage the wood

🪵 Long-Term Care

For lasting quality and appearance:

• Lightly sand benches every 1–3 years if needed
• Apply sauna-safe paraffin oil once a year to protect the wood and keep it looking good

🔥 Traditional Sauna Maintenance

If you have a stove or heater:

• Check sauna stones once a year for cracks
• Clean or replace stones when necessary to maintain performance

🌦️ Outdoor Sauna Care

Outdoor saunas may need a little extra attention:

• Occasionally treat or stain the exterior to protect it from weather and UV exposure

⚠️ Important Tips

• Never paint or varnish the inside of a sauna—the wood must breathe
• Proper ventilation after each use helps prevent mould and keeps the sauna fresh
• Most maintenance only takes a few minutes and is very easy to keep up with
