Steam and sauna: the perfect pairing for yoga recovery

Heat and gentle movement go hand in hand. While yoga helps mobilize joints and lengthen tight muscle groups, steam and sauna can promote relaxation and help you unwind after effort. Many guests enjoy a brief warm‑up in the steam room before class to feel more supple, and a calming sauna session afterward to deepen relaxation and support an easy post‑practice reset.

General best practices:

• Hydrate well before and after using heat.
• Listen to your body—ease in and out of heat gradually.
• Cool down between sauna/steam and your next activity.
• Pair with breathwork from class to extend that calm, centered feeling.
