The Process
1. PREP
Drink at least one 8 oz glass of water before entering the sauna. Ideally, start your session at least 2 hours after any meal. We recommend leaving all jewelry, phones, and metal/glass bottles or glasses outside of the sauna.
2. HEAT
Grab a sit towel & hop in! Let the heat sink in for 10 – 20 minutes.

Chill outside in nature, rinse off, or go for the full cold plunge. Enjoy the cool down for at least 5-10 minutes for the full benefit of this part of the cycle.
HYDRATE! Drink at least one 8 oz glass of water during your cool down
4. REPEAT
Repeat the cycle 2-3 times with a full cold plunge at the end. Feel the hot & cold circuit reset your system.
