About
Cold Plunge & Sauna
Signal Sauna offers a Nordic-style pop-up experience centered on contrast therapy, featuring wood-fired barrel saunas and powered cold plunge tubs. The spa provides two barrel saunas, with guests noting one typically runs hotter while the other offers a more comfortable temperature and seating style. Multiple cold plunge tubs are maintained at a consistently frosty temperature. Spa-goers can choose between guided sessions, which include three to four rounds of heat and cold with breathwork and meditation, or open sessions for a self-paced "choose your own adventure" experience. The cleanliness of both the sauna facilities and the cold plunges is consistently highlighted by visitors.
Atmosphere
The space is described as a cozy, welcoming, and magical oasis with a feng shui and comfortable setup that is enjoyable in any season. A strong sense of community and genuine connection is a defining feature, creating a communal atmosphere that many guests find special and more appealing than private infrared sauna rooms. The outdoor setting allows visitors to experience the benefits of contrast therapy throughout the changing seasons.
Pricing
The spa is noted for its affordable pricing, with guests mentioning it offers incredible value compared to similar venues in other cities. An introductory package of three sessions for sixty dollars is specifically appreciated by new visitors.
Staff
The owner, Ryan, is frequently praised for his hospitality and for crafting a beautiful, welcoming space. Guests note he keeps the facilities clean and the experience magical, contributing significantly to the friendly and hospitable environment.
