Wood Fired Sauna

Benefits of Using a Sauna

Improved cardiovascular health

Reduced risk of respiratory disease
Saunas may help reduce the risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and other respiratory ailments. 
 
  •  
  • Pain relief
    Saunas can help relieve pain from conditions like osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and fibromyalgia. 
     
  •  
  • Improved sleep
    Saunas can help improve sleep by triggering the release of endorphins, which can reduce stress and anxiety. 
     
  •  
  • Improved muscle recovery
    Saunas can help muscles recover after a workout by increasing blood flow and delivering oxygen to the muscles. 
     
  •  
  • Skin health
    Saunas can help improve skin health by opening up pores, which can help expel toxins and waste. The dry heat from the sauna can also increase blood flow to the skin, which can help improve conditions like psoriasis. 
     
  •  
  • Reduced risk of dementia
    Saunas may help reduce the risk of certain types of dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease.

The Building Process

Some of you may enjoy the process we went through to build our wood fired sauna. Here are a few pictures from the construction process. As of January 2025, the sauna is up and running and ready to go! However, we still have many steps left to go! We will be working on siding, a wrap around porch, an external shower, a cold plunge (for now we can use buckets of cold water!), a fire pit, and hopefully, God willing, a hot tub!
