🕒 Arrive Early

Please arrive at least 15 minutes before your session start time.
This allows you to check in, prepare, and enjoy your full 45-minute session without interruption.
Late arrivals may lose time, as sessions begin promptly.

🌿 Arrive Clean and Ready

Please arrive showered and free of lotions, deodorants, or heavy scents.
If you’ve come straight from work or a walk, rinse off before entering the sauna, it keeps the space fresh and the benches clean for everyone.

👙 Swimwear Required

To keep everyone comfortable, Fire and Stars Woodland Sauna is a shared space, please wear suitable swimwear at all times.

🪵 Sit on a Towel

Bring two towels, one to sit on inside the sauna, and one to dry off with afterwards.
Sitting on a towel keeps the benches clean and comfortable for all.

💧 One Ladle at a Time

Adding water to the stones increases humidity and heat, please ask others before pouring and wait a few moments between ladles. Too much water can cool the stove or douse the fire.

🤫 Keep the Space Peaceful

The sauna is a shared, social space but also one of quiet reflection.
Speak softly, be mindful of those who prefer silence, and leave phones outside the sauna.

🚿 Cool Down & Cold Plunge Courtesy

After your heat round, rinse sweat off before using the cold plunge.
Keep your time in the plunge brief if others are waiting, and always rinse again after use to help keep the water clean.

🩺 Health Considerations

Please do not use the sauna if you feel unwell, have open wounds, or have recently consumed alcohol.
If you have heart, blood pressure, or respiratory conditions, or are pregnant, please check with your GP before attending.
Listen to your body and exit the sauna immediately if you feel dizzy, lightheaded, or unwell.

🪶 Respect All Bodies

Our sauna is a body-neutral space, please avoid comments on anyone’s appearance, tattoos, or clothing, even if your intentions are positive.

🔥 No Alcohol or Glass

This is a sober space. For safety reasons, alcohol and glass containers are not permitted in or around the sauna.

🌲 Leave No Trace

Take your belongings, towels, and rubbish with you when you leave.
Let’s keep our woodland and this shared space as beautiful as you found it.
