Benefits of Sauna Therapy
-
Regular sauna use can boost circulation, increase heart rate, and mimic some of the benefits of cardiovascular exercise. Long-term use has been linked to better overall heart health and longevity.
-
Perfect for athletes and anyone with muscle tension or joint stiffness, sauna sessions ease soreness, improve mobility, and aid recovery after workouts.
-
Sweating helps remove toxins and supports lymphatic flow. Heat therapy also encourages the body to lower inflammation and strengthen immune defences.
-
Heat exposure increases blood flow to the brain, supporting clarity, relaxation, and long-term cognitive health. Many people also find saunas help reduce stress and improve sleep.
Add Contrast Therapy
Enhance your sauna session with a cold plunge!
Switching between heat and cold stimulates circulation, reduces inflammation, releases endorphins, and leaves you feeling energised and clear-headed.
“Sauna bathers reported fewer hypertension diagnoses, less pain, higher happiness and energy levels, more satisfying sleep, and better general and mental health.”
