Staying well hydrated is one of the most important parts of enjoying your sauna experience safely. The high temperatures inside the sauna cause your body to sweat extensively, resulting in the loss of water and electrolytes. Replacing these fluids is essential to help your body regulate temperature, recover effectively and reduce the risk of dehydration.
We encourage all guests to arrive well hydrated, drink water regularly throughout their visit and continue hydrating after their session has finished. Drinking water is available on site, and we recommend bringing a reusable water bottle to refill during your visit.
There is no single amount of water that is right for everyone. Listen to your body and drink regularly, particularly between sauna rounds. If you begin to feel thirsty, develop a headache, feel light headed, fatigued or generally unwell, these may be signs that you need to rest, cool down and rehydrate.
While our Alcohol & Drug Policy explains that alcohol must not be consumed before or during your sauna session, maintaining good hydration with water remains the best way to prepare for and recover from heat exposure.
At Wyld, we encourage guests to make hydration part of the experience. The more you sweat, the more important it becomes to replace the fluids your body has lost.
