Redefine your Relaxation Space
Handcrafted Quality
You build something extraordinary when you create a custom sauna with BW. It definitely becomes more than just a structure or a place to relax—it transforms into a centerpiece of conversation that unites people. When your sauna is designed especially for you, it means so much more.
We chose steel because it represents the reliability and go-anywhere character of BW Saunas. The last thing you should be thinking about when you enter our saunas is if you damaged the sauna on the road there.
“If your truck can go there, your sauna should too!”
We are about craftsmanship and sourcing quality materials, period: no fluff, no nonsense, just the best possible mobile saunas for sale at a fair price.
Saunas are easy to build to just look good, but water, heat, and steam have a way of separating looks from quality. Some saunas use wood jointing that separates and warps over time. With BW, we bring reinforced jointing and thick wood paneling to ensure your sauna not only feels solid but will keep feeling that way well into its years of use.
“If your truck can go there, your sauna should too!”
-30 degrees out? Some saunas skip out on insulating the floors or giving proper heat-reflecting coverage in the name of price and weight. When heat is the primary purpose of your sauna, heat should be the top priority. Our saunas are made for the cold! We insulate every last inch to ensure your sauna heats up hotter, faster, and in the coldest conditions.

It depends on what you are searching for! If you want to rest, 15 to 30 minutes is plenty of time. If you want to cleanse and enhance your skin, 15 to 20 minutes is perfect. If you’re an athlete, resting for 15 to 20 minutes after exercise can help minimize muscular pain and improve circulation.
Factors like weight, age, and exposure duration affect calorie burn in a sauna, with a 30-minute session potentially burning 100-300 calories. Harvard Health found that infrared saunas can burn up to 1.5 calories per minute, while the American Council on Exercise estimates 50-150 calories in a hot session.
- Listen to Your Body: If you feel uncomfortable, exit the sauna! It is better to prevent than to cure.
- Stay Hydrated: Drink water before, during, and after your sauna session to replace lost fluids.
- Session Duration: Two to three sessions per week, each lasting 15 to 20 minutes, is a decent start.
- Sauna Etiquette: Shower before entering, dress lightly or with a towel for comfort, and keep talking to a minimal for a peaceful atmosphere.
The short answer is yes—with some restrictions. Saunas generally promote weight reduction by sweating, which allows the body to shed water weight momentarily. During a typical 30-minute sauna session, you can lose roughly 0.1 to 0.6 kg (0,22 to 1,32 pounds). However, this is primarily water weight, which will return as you rehydrate.
Sauna bathing offers numerous health benefits, including weight control, hormonal balance, cardiovascular health benefits, musculoskeletal pain relief, muscle pain reduction, respiratory system benefits, and relaxation. It promotes a deep state of relaxation, reduces stress, and improves overall well-being.
Sauna baths are safe for most healthy individuals, but precautions are needed for those with specific conditions like acute infections, heart problems, or fever. Heat exposure can affect certain drugs’ pharmacokinetics, so high blood pressure medicines should be taken before use. Also, saunas are safe for children to use under adult supervision.
