Rituals
Welcome to a unique experience. We host sauna rituals every week.
A sauna ritual is guided, quiet sauna session, where you use all your senses. Herbs, fragrance and steam from the oven are often used. The body is alternately exposed to heating and cooling. Some rituals have elements of meditation and stretching, and some involve gently beating yourself with a bunch of leafy birch.
