Sauna Rules & Etiquette

Sauna Safety

If Pregnant - ALWAYS consult your doctor before using a sauna.
Jewellery and any clothing containing metal parts should not be worn in the sauna.
Do not consume alcohol before, during, or after sauna use.
Persons with medical conditions or underlying health problems including cardiac issues / high or low blood pressure / on prescription drugs should consult their GP before using the sauna.
Do not eat a large meal before using the sauna.
Stay hydrated and drink plenty of water.
Spend no longer than 15 minutes in sauna at any one time.
Leave sauna immediately if you feel uncomfortable, dizzy, nauseous or lightheaded.
No glass or metal bottles to be taken into the sauna.
Flammable materials including newspapers and magazines should not be taken into the sauna.

Enter and leave quickly and quietly - minimise heat loss and keep it relaxing.
Respect the dress code - Remember we're in England! Unless a private booking, please ensure swim wear is worn.
Use a towel - For hygiene please use a towel to sit or lie down on. It will also be more comfortable, acting as a buffer between your skin and the hot wood.
Ask before pouring water on the rocks - When you pour water on the sauna’s heated rocks, it creates a powerful burst of hot and soothing steam. It feels amazing. But some people don’t like it.
So before you pour water on the sauna rocks, ask everyone in the sauna if that’s okay. You need unanimous consent for this one.
Don't Listen to music - this is a relaxing experience. No one wants to listen to your phone or what's coming through your headphones.
Leave all electronics outside - Apart from steam not doing electronics any good. As above, this is a relaxing experience!
Make room for others - We have designed our sauna to be roomy and never overbook it. Sitting down takes priority over laying down. So make room for others.
Don't exercise in the sauna - Saunas are for relaxing. Leave your yoga or press ups outside!
No grooming - Hair or even nails. Just relax. Groom yourself outside.
