The rounds

Rinse, heat, cool, rest

One round is four steps. Repeat them as many times as you like, and stop whenever you want to.

  • 01

    Rinse

    Shower before you go in, and take your towel to sit on.

    • Long hair goes up

    • Jewelry and glasses stay in the locker, because metal gets hot

    • Phones stay in the locker

  • 02

    Heat

    Pick a bench: the higher you sit, the hotter it is. Stay as long as is comfortable, and leave whenever you want to.

    • A round is often 8 to 12 minutes

    • The host adds water to the stones for steam, which Finns call löyly

    • Talk softly, or not at all

  • 03

    Cool

    Step into the plunge pool, or out into the air, until you feel ready to go back in.

    • Go into the water slowly

    • Get out whenever you want to

    • Rinse again before the next round

  • 04

    Rest

    Sit in the quiet room with a glass of water and let things settle before the next round.

    • Water is by the door

    • Take as long as you like between rounds

    • Skip the next round if you would rather rest
