At Drip Sauna, we love proper etiquette to ensure a rejuvenating time for all our guests. When adding water to the sauna stones, consider the following guidelines:
Ask for Consent:
Before adding water to the stones, kindly ask other sauna users if they are comfortable with increasing the steam. Everyone has different heat tolerance levels, and it's essential to respect that.
Use Moderation:
Add water sparingly to avoid making the sauna uncomfortably hot and steamy for others. A little water goes a long way in increasing humidity and heat.
Use the Provided Equipment:
Always use the ladle or equipment provided by Drip Sauna to pour water onto the stones. This ensures safety and consistency in water distribution.
Be Mindful of Splashing:
Pour water slowly and carefully onto the stones to prevent splashing hot water on nearby individuals or surfaces.
Wait for Steam to Settle:
Allow the steam to work it’s magic throughout the sauna and settle before adding more water. This waiting period helps to gauge the increase in heat for an enjoyable experience for everyone.

Alternating heat and cold can support:
Improved circulation + cardiovascular health
Reduced inflammation + muscle recovery
Nervous system regulation + stress relief
Increased mental resilience
It’s a simple and effective way to reset your body.
-
While saunas and cold plunges can be a healthy and relaxing experience for many, they may not be suitable for everyone.
