How to Sauna

Arriving to sauna already hydrated is important. Water and tea will be provided but it is also a good idea to bring your water bottle along. Swimwear is essential, as are 2 towels (one for sitting on in the sauna and one for towelling off after sauna).

fire + stone sauna is purposefully situated in beautiful, natural landscapes. A changing area will be available, but it can be useful to have your swimmers on already when you arrive. Jewellery can get quite hot in the sauna - it’s always best to remove it before entering the sauna.

Listen to your body whilst in the sauna. Sauna is traditionally between 80-100 degrees celsius, so it’s important to listen to your body and cycle in and out of the sauna (perhaps using the cold plunge in between) as much as needed. You should not push yourself to stay in the sauna if you are not comfortable. There will be a space to relax, cool down and decompress between cycles.

In communal sauna, it is courteous to ask others if they mind steam being created by pouring water on the rocks. You can expect it to be relatively quiet in the sauna, however it can also be a time of communal chat. Please respect that different people come to sauna for different reasons.
