I'm new to sauna. How do I do it?

You will love it! :)

Go by the feeling and you won’t go wrong. Your body will tell you if you have had enough for a session. It should not be a competition nor a show-off activity.

A typical sauna session is comprised of 3-5 rounds . Each round consists of 10 – 20 mins in the hot room followed by a cool-off period of approximately equal or greater length outside the sauna.

The exact amount of time in the hot room or outside cooling down depends on how long it takes your body to respond to the heat.

When you sit in a 80° C sauna, your body starts circulating blood to cool itself down. By breathing calmly and relaxing into the heat, you increase the amount of oxygen in the bloodstream and the body’s ability bring your internal temperature into a more comfortable homeostasis. However, once the steam is added to the rocks the temperature often becomes more than we can naturally regulate.

Breathing and listening to your body will help you decide when it’s reached its comfort zone. It’s important to listen and not push too much, which gives your body a chance to respond to the intensity of the environment in a calm non-fight-or-flight state. Breath and enjoy—it should always feel great!

Pro tip: To gain maximum health benefits by extending your stay in extreme heat - wear a sauna hat!

How hot is it going to be?

That depends entirely on your preferences, there is no hard fast rule. For some that means 75°C, for others 95°C or hotter.

How many people does the mobile sauna fit?

There is enough room for 6-8 people at a time but you can always take turns.
