Sauna has always been a lifestyle for us! After spending time with family this past weekend, we came across a photo of Nick’s Grandpa back in 1979 selling his homemade sauna heaters & portable saunas!
The family would bring the portable saunas down to the lake and do their own contrast therapy (before that term was even coined). People thought this was so great, so Grandpa started making and selling them to others :)

With 2 weeks left in our season we have been reminiscing about some of the changes we made this year (and what we think, for the better!), as well as the beauty of visiting the sauna in rain, snow, golden sunsets or ruby red sunrises… it’s been a great season!
This year (in no particular order)
1) upgraded our heater
2) added the water disperser to allow for a more calming Löyly experience
3) received bronze in — this years voting is still on 😏😏😏
4) started the day earlier & stayed open later!
5) visited & participated in .saunasummit gaining an even greater appreciation for sauna!
6) brought in merch: hats, toques, t’s, sweaters & collabed with creating a limited edition Turkish towel!
7) swapped our electrolytes out for an Australian brand called .hydration
8) consistently booked out full moon specialty sessions
We have had an awesome season and couldn’t do it without our amazing sauna staff & YOU!
Last day is April 30, though the weekends may be booked — we still have some mid week spots to get you in one last time 🥰😍

How to Hot Cold Cycle at Löyly Floating Sauna:

SWEAT - 10 to 15 minutes in our cedar sauna soaking up the view of Okanagan lake. Use the ladle to add water to the rocks and enjoy the Löyly wash over you. This is the detox process.

PLUNGE - 30 seconds to 2 minutes. Breathe deeply as you submerge yourself into our Okanagan Lake plunge pool. Allow your body to relax and focus on the moment infront of you. Cold water shocks the system, triggers dopamine release, and activates brown fat.

REST - 1 to 2 minutes. Don’t skip this part (as much as you may want to run into the sauna!) Drying yourself off of the deck and allow your body to kick into “warming gear”. Practice a moment of mindfulness and feel the circulation of the blood in your limbs.

REPEAT - a 70 minute session should allow for 3 to 4 hot cold cycles! Finish with a cold plunge because it can enhance the metabolic benefits of cold exposure. Known as the “Søeberg Principle,” your body is forced to reheat itself after the cold immersion, potentially leading to increased calorie burning and improved circulation; essentially maximizing the body’s response to the temperature change by triggering a natural rewarming process.

FOR THE BOLD, START COLD!
We love to challenge people by starting with a cold plunge, this is where you dig deep, and really gain mental resiliency. Submerging up to your neck (or going for a full plunge) stimulates the vagus nerve which is key in anxiety, stress & depression reduction.
Open 7 days a week until the end of April! Booking link in bio :)

Did you know if you book a private session you can bring up to 6 other friends with you? (7 total bodies!)
Our community sessions have a limit of 6, but if you book the place out - you can bring an extra guest with you :)
A great way to spend a birthday, friend’s night out, team-building exercise… you know what we mean!
Open 7 days a week (weekends do book up! So book ahead!) See ya at the Sauna!
