Sauna & self care room
welcome to the raven's nest!
Our sauna and self care room is a cozy oasis where you can rest, release and recharge. In addition to the beautiful infrared sauna, the Raven’s Nest offers many soothing amenities that invite you to relax in the serene, womb-like environment.
Curl up in the giant bean bag chair or cozy pappasan chair with a complementary cup of tea or electrolyte drink. Use a yoga mat to stretch out once you have warmed and loosened your muscles in the sauna, or use the foam rollers and tennis balls to tend to fascial restrictions. Play with the tarot and oracle decks, or choose a book to keep you company in the sauna. After your sauna time, grab a cool towel out of our mini towel fridge, or refresh and cleanse with a custom essential oil spray from Fire in the Belly Creations.
With body affirming art decorating the walls, and a warm pink glow lighting the space, this nest has been curated to nourish, soothe and rejuvenate.
​
In addition to being incredibly cozy and relaxing, our infrared sauna offers a number of health benefits. Infrared heat works by directly penetrating the tissues of the body, rather than heating the surface of the skin, to induce relaxation and detoxification. This means that the air in the sauna stays at a comfortable temperature of 100°-150°F, instead of heating the air in excess of 200°F, as in a traditional dry sauna. Research shows that infrared saunas can help to relax tight and sore muscles, reduce inflammation, boost the immune system, improve sleep & mental health, and improve blood flow.
The Raven’s Nest provides benefits whether you book it on its own or in addition to a massage treatment. Booked alone, the Raven's Nest provides you with a mini-retreat where you can support both your physical and mental health with deep quiet in a soothing environment with a delightful sauna experience. When you use the sauna before or after a massage, you can amplify the effects of the bodywork session by relaxing your nervous system, muscles and mind even more deeply.
Accessibility Information for the Raven’s Nest: The sauna accommodates bodies of many shapes & sizes, with a weight limit up to 660 lb.
