Who we are
White Pass Mobile Sauna was born from a vision shared between two friends wanting to bring health, wellness, and healing to the people of East Lewis County and beyond.
Our completely off-grid, wood fired, mobile cedar sauna is your outlet from the busy world and everyday life. Indulge in your senses! Feel the heat and sweat, hear the steam, smell the himalayan salt and cedar, and en-vision a healthy YOU.
WHY SAUNA?
Sauna therapy is an ancient practice in many cultures and is often seen as a pathway to good health.
Saunas by design, are simple. In our opinion, this makes them even more appealing. A sauna has four walls and a heat source. The idea is to sweat! And sweat, you will! Our mobile sauna can easily approach 180 degrees, although we generally like to keep it a balmy 140-160. Thankfully, our sauna has two benches outside the door for a quick cool-off period, and at times, a cold plunge may be provided.
Here are some health benefits to sauna usage (backed up by years of research and science):
Improved athletic performance
enhanced circulation due to a widening of blood vessels
Release of endorphins (feel good hormones)
Increased energy: saunas can positively impact your mitochondria
Improved heart health: READ THIS: Sauna use linked to longer life, fewer fatal heart problems - Harvard Health
Improved muscle function and recovery
Improved cognition and brain health: The brain-derived neurotrophic factor, or BDNF increases with regular sauna use, activating the growth of new brain cells, better maintaining existing cells, and improving neuroplasticity, the brain’s process for forming new neural connections.
Increased Immune Health: increases the heat shock protein, stimulating antigen-presenting cells, along with releasing cytokine, thus stimulating the body’s natural immune system.
