The Heat Exchange is meant to feel like a few friends being invited over to that friend’s place who happens to have a really great sauna.

The sauna business coaches told me that success was all about “butts in seats.” I subscribed to that idea for a while, but it never felt true for me. So I’m taking a chance on something different. It’s not a two-person infrared appointment or a large public sauna. The Heat Exchange is meant to feel more like a few friends being invited over to that friend’s place who happens to have a really great sauna.

How It Works

01 Gather Your Circle

Book a private sauna block at a flat rate. Bring your core group of friends to split the cost, making the new weekly hangout incredibly affordable for everyone.

02 Lock in Your Routine

Secure the same day and time for six weeks and give yourselves a reliable, healthy anchor on the calendar that keeps you connected to your tribe.

03 Sauna Your Way

Lock up your phones and step into your private sauna experience. We handle all the details so you can just show up and (re)connect with your body, mind, and friends.

Turn “we should hang out sometime” into “Join us at our weekly sauna night”

As my social circle has grown via family extracurriculars, I’ve realized how much I like having a wider circle of people who know me and who I’m genuinely happy to see. I don’t necessarily need help meeting more people. I need more ways to turn ‘we should hang out sometime’ into actually hanging out. Having a standing weekly sauna night means there’s always an easy invitation: “Join us for sauna night.”

The Space

The Heat

Feet above the stones, fresh air, and water on the rocks. Learn why the Finnish have a word dedicated to the experience (löyly).

The Chill

Cooling off is just as important as the heat. A cool shower and ambient air will always do the job, but we see no reason to stop there. Expect a few less conventional ways to cool down between rounds.

The Rest

The figurative “chill”. Rest & rehydrate. Then do it all over again. Multiple rounds make the magic happen.

Frequently
Asked
Questions

  • Your reservation gives you and your group exclusive use of the sauna for the duration of your reservation. Talk, or not. Throw as much or as little water on the rocks as you like. Lie down, get naked, whatever. It’s your space.

    Outside the sauna, we’re a little more communal. Our saunas sit in a shared space for cooling off, relaxing, and hanging out between rounds. You may cross paths with other groups doing the same.

  • Our goal is to make regular sauna affordable and sustainable, and to make it easier to spend time with your tribe. When you include more friends in your reservation, you reduce the price per person, and you lay the foundation for a weekly sauna hangout.

  • One of our core values is autonomy. We recommend six weeks for a variety of reasons, but you are free to book whatever fits your life.

  • Late 2026 is the plan, pending building permits from Vista.
