Question 1

What do I wear for a sauna session?

Accepted Answer

We recommend wearing as little as possible. For community drop-in sessions (i.e. you're in the sauna with other people you may not know), most people wear some type of bathing suit. For private sauna rentals, it's up to you!

Question 2

How old should someone be to use the sauna?

Accepted Answer

Almost anyone can use the sauna but those under 18 must be accompanied by an adult. Remember, children are unable to regulate their body temperature like adults can. Generally speaking, children and elderly should not spend as much time in the sauna without taking a break to cool down. As always, we recommend talking to your doctor first if you're uncertain if high heat exposure is something you can tolerate.

Question 3

How long should I stay in the sauna?

Accepted Answer

For those who are new to sauna or heat exposure, we recommend starting at 10 minutes before taking a break to cool down. Those who are further along in their sauna journeys can stay in for longer periods of time but most people find that around 15 minutes is the right time to step out for a cool down. Remember, if you ever feel dizzy or unwell, it's time to step out and let your body cool down!

Question 4

How many people fit in the sauna at one time?

Accepted Answer

We find that 6 people in the sauna at any given time is the right amount. However, if you're comfortable with the people around you, the sauna can fit up to 8. Remember that you're usually cycling in and out of the sauna so if you have a larger group at a private rental you can get a lot more people into the sauna over the course of your rental time.
