Sauna & Steam
FINNISH SAUNA $20
The body's natural way to cleanse itself is through perspiration.
The sauna's high temperature (average 180°F) and low humidity
(25%) create an environment that promotes overall perspiration, which
flushes
away
impurities and deep cleanses the pores. This special combination
of high heat and low humidity soothes and relaxes tired muscles,
relieves
stress,
and promotes a wonderful feeling of well-being. During a sauna, the
circulation, rate of breathing, and pulse rate increase. Ten minutes
in the sauna
is comparable to doing ten minutes of aerobic activity.
Sauna 10am-5:30pm (Mon-Fri)
Sauna 10am-7:30pm (Tues-Thu)
Sauna weekends & holidays - $25
Sauna is complimentary with one hour massage.
We recommend a sauna before and/or after your massage.
