Founding Story
We are two old friends with many shared interests, food, music and dancing... but our greatest connection is our love of sweat bathing. We have been in saunas, banyas, bastuer, and other types of sweat houses all around the world. We knew that we wanted to do a business together. However, it was not until after we experienced some serious health challenges, where we relied on saunas to help us recover, that it became obvious what we should do... open our own bathhouse!
We knew that opening a bathhouse would be a challenge and many people thought that we were slightly bonkers to do this, but we held true to our beliefs and faith in each other.
So here we are, bringing the healing power of heat, love of the sweat, and joy of connection in these spaces to you. Enjoy!
Our Mission
Our mission can be summed up in four words: sweat, refresh, connect and explore.
We aim to give you the best sweat possible, with its accompanying myriad of health benefits. Pause to breathe slowly through the noice of our beautiful city in a space designed to allow you to focus on... well, you. Meet friends of old and make new ones at our social saunas set to music on Friday and Saturday evenings and explore something new at one of our special events or rituals.

Sim
Operations Director
Sim yearned to escape the laptop in his bedroom office and return to something more akin to his many years in hospitality. After being forced (against his will) by Gidd to sit in a steam room, his love of the heat was born and he hasn't looked back. When approached to help with building the bathhouse - it was an easy yes... the promise of contrast therapy seven days a week sweetened the deal.
