Built to Finnish standards with thermowood, green jadeite, and cold water
A true sauna experience comes down to proper air circulation, natural timber that stays comfortable against the skin, and the contrast between deep heat and cold water.
Carefully selected natural materials
Our saunas are built under the supervision of our Finnish sauna expert to ensure proper convection and authentic löyly.
Nordic timber craftsmanship215°C dampbehandlet • 0% kemi
Heat-treated thermowood & Accoya
Our benches and interior wall panels are crafted from carefully selected thermowood and Accoya that do not absorb scorching heat, paired with heat-treated spruce, larch, and solid oak for lasting durability.
Panels and benches stay comfortable to the touch – pleasant to sit on and lean back against without burning
Exceptional dimensional stability against moisture and weather swings without chemical treatment
Select saunas feature Himalayan salt stone walls, enriching the steam with beneficial micro-salts for skin and lungs

Rare green jadeite sauna stones

Naturally ionizes and purifies the air while retaining heat significantly longer than common gray stone
The Nordic Contrast Ritual
Health benefits of hot and cold contrast
What happens in the body when alternating between the hot sauna and a cold plunge in the sea, a lake, or a cold plunge tub?
01
01
Dilation & constriction
Circulation & vascular health
Sauna heat dilates blood vessels while cold water in a plunge tub or the sea constricts them. This trains the circulatory system and helps support healthy blood pressure.
Blood flow increases up to 2x
Phase 1 • The Heat01
80–90°C
Intense sauna heat (10–15 min)
Blood vessels dilate and heart rate gently rises akin to moderate aerobic exercise.
Alternating between warm steam and cold water stimulates the immune system and soothes sore muscles and joints, making it ideal after exercise.
Activates cold-shock proteins
03

Nervous system balance
Endorphins & mental clarity
Cold immersion triggers a natural release of endorphins and norepinephrine, providing renewed energy, sharper focus, and lasting calm.
Natural endorphin release
Phase 3 • The Glow03
+250%
Dopamine & norepinephrine
The contrast triggers an endorphin surge, promoting sustained mental clarity and calmness.

Phase 4 • Deep Rest04
Dyb REM
Restorative sleep
The post-sauna core temperature drop signals the brain to initiate deeper REM sleep.
Natural cooling
Relaxation & deeper sleep
As your core temperature drops after a sauna session, tension melts away and your body naturally prepares for deep, restorative sleep.
Faster sleep onset & deep recovery
