THE RITUAL

Sauna, Rinse, Plunge, Rest

The session follows a simple thermal sequence—brief heats in a Finnish sauna, a rinse in an outdoor shower or bathhouse, a one- to five-minute cold plunge or shower, and a rest period—repeated to deepen circulation and calm.

THE FACILITIES

Finnish sauna, outdoor shower and ten-person plunge

Facilities include a carefully crafted Finnish sauna, an outdoor nature shower or bathhouse for rinsing, and a ten-person cold plunge designed to avoid waits during private sessions.

THE LOUNGE

Covered timber-frame lounge and fire

Between cycles guests relax in a covered timber-frame lounge beside a fire—an intentional space for quiet recovery and low‑noise repose.

What the day feels like

What a Private Session Feels Like

A Private Thermal Session is paced and deliberate: short, hot immersions in a Finnish sauna are followed by an outdoor rinse and a brisk cold plunge or shower, then a 10–14 minute rest beside the fire. That cycle—typically 10–20 minutes in the sauna, a rinse, a 1–5 minute plunge, and a longer rest—is repeated as desired to leave the body limber and the mind quiet.
