What is your sauna and ice bath etiquette?
Saunas and bathhouses have long been spaces for communal healing, reflection, and connection. At MindFuel, we honor that tradition while creating space for modern social wellness.
Come solo or bring friends—our space is designed to foster genuine connection in a world that often feels disconnected.
You don’t need to whisper, but we do ask that you remain mindful of those around you. Feel free to strike up a conversation with fellow MindFuelers, but please remember: this is a flirt-free zone. We’re here to connect—not to hook up.
A few key etiquette notes:
Phones stay in lockers. Be present—for yourself and others.
Rinse off in the showers before entering the cold plunge to keep the water clean.
Dry off completely after your shower or plunge to help us keep floors safe and dry.
Thank you for helping us cultivate a respectful, uplifting, and connected environment.
What are the temperatures of your sauna and ice baths?
Our sauna typically ranges from 165°F to 185°F, with humidity between 0% and 20%. During our social hours, you can expect it to average around 175°F, offering an energizing yet comfortable heat experience.
Our cold tubs range from 33°F to 50°F, creating the ideal environment for contrast therapy and recovery.
Are there any health restrictions?
We recommend that you consult your healthcare provider before using our facilities. If you have a cardiac condition, high or low blood pressure, a history of fainting, or any other medical concerns, sauna and cold plunge should only be used with your physician’s approval.
MindFuel cannot be held responsible for illness or injury resulting from client negligence. Please listen to your body and use our amenities responsibly.
Can I visit if I'm feeling unwell?
If you’re feeling under the weather, we kindly ask that you reschedule your session. Practicing self-care also means caring for our community—and we’re all about building communities of care.
Thanks for helping us keep the space safe and supportive for everyone.
Is there a minimum age requirement?
The minimum age requirement to enter MindFuel is 16 years old, but they must be accompanied by an adult.
