You can only use sauna water provided in a bucket inside the sauna to add water to the hot rocks and nothing else. The water must be ladled gently with your arms away from the stove as hot steam (loyly) will be created and temperature will increase, therefore please make sure everyone is in agreement before doing so and that they are all seated. This does not need to done very often.
DO NOT touch or open the stove door, only trained staff are permitted to do so.
Towels are for sitting on to prevent sweat from getting on the benches, please do not hang or drape towels or clothing to dry anywhere in the sauna as this may cause a fire.
We recommend drinking plenty of water after your sauna session to avoid getting dehydrated , please make sure you have some with you. Do not eat right before your sauna session as this could make you feel sick.
You will need a clean towel to sit on in the sauna session, this prevents sweat and body oil from getting on the wooden benches.
Body lotions, creams and scrubs are not allowed in the sauna.
You need to look after your hair if you sauna regularly, the intense heat can dry it out and make it brittle, therefore making it susceptible to break off. We have sauna hats in store to purchase or you could just use a towel.
When your sauna session is over please take it easy, its recommended to rest for at least ten minutes to give your body time to adjust and cool down and your heart rate to slow.
