Ten minutes in, the heat has found your back. Twenty minutes in, your thoughts have slowed to match it. You come out, drink cold water, and feel that loose, heavy, good kind of tired.

Benefits
Dry heat raises your core temperature by a degree or so. Your heart rate rises as it would on a brisk walk, blood vessels open, and muscles let go. Cooling down afterwards is what brings the calm.
- 01Heart and circulationHeat widens blood vessels and gives the heart a gentle workout
- 02Muscle relaxation and sorenessWarm tissue loosens; stiffness after exercise eases
- 03Better sleepThe fall in body temperature after a sauna mirrors what happens at bedtime
- 04Stress and moodTwenty quiet minutes with nothing to do, then the release of cooling down
- 05Skin and detoxSweating is pleasant, but the body clears toxins through the liver and kidneys, not sweat
Our pod is smaller and gentler than a traditional Finnish sauna. Drink water before and after, and do not push through feeling faint.
