THE SAUNA EXPERIENCE

Contrast Therapy, Campfire Style

Every session is 50 minutes, which gives you time for two or three rounds of hot and cold. Sauna has been done this way for centuries, and for good reason.

Heat. Settle into the wood-fired sauna and let it warm you all the way through. Your muscles loosen up and your head starts to clear.

Cold. Step outside and cool down in the open air coming off the lake. On a winter morning you’ll feel it right away.

Repeat. Head back in and go again. Most people do two or three rounds and leave relaxed, clear-headed and in a better mood than when they showed up.
