Charlotte's Premier Wellness Facility
Right in the heart of the city.
WE'RE OPEN!
Sauna House Charlotte
Built in 1934, our space features original exposed brick, soaring bow-truss ceilings, and expansive factory-style windows that anchor it firmly in Charlotte's industrial past. Reimagined for Sauna House, it now transforms that historic openness into a warm, light-filled hub for heat, cold, and community.
Our Offerings Offerings
Thermal Cycle
Our Thermal Cycle blends restorative heat, cold pools to reset, and grounding stillness in open space to soften the body and clear the mind. The atmosphere is social but chill. You’re with others, yet free to settle into your own pace. Move, breathe, and reset with three rounds of our thermal cycle.
Massage Therapy
Pair a full 60-minute massage with a 2-hour Thermal Cycle for a complete mind-body return. Our therapists use thoughtful, intuitive touch to help your system release tension and unwind, so you leave feeling lighter, de-stressed, and fully restored.
Private Experiences
If you prefer privacy, each Sauna House location offers unique private experiences designed for quiet restoration. Explore the options available at your nearest Sauna House - and choose the format that helps your body unwind best.

You can find our complete list of house rules here.
To use our Hot-Cold-Relax bathing circuit, we recommend up to 15-20 minutes in the sauna, a cold shower to rinse off sweat, and a cold plunge for 3-5 minutes.
With both hot and cold therapy, always start small and listen to your body! Then, relax and rehydrate for 10-15 minutes before repeating the process. Of course these are simply guidelines! We encourage guests to move at their own pace and do what feels best for them.
All guests must shower off before starting their bathhouse visit to remove any lotions/oils/fragrances/bodily yuck. This helps preserve the wood of the sauna and ensures a clean environment for all. The showers are also available after your visit.
If it’s your first visit, don’t worry! Our staff is happy to orient you to the space and answer any questions. Think of it as a space to unwind, refresh, and move at your own pace. Bring a bathing suit, and let us take care of the rest!
You will need a non-sheer bathing suit that provides reasonable coverage.
We provide towels, private changing rooms, and showers with our in-house line of bathing products. Samples of our body oils are available at checkout.
We recommend that bathers bring a reusable water bottle to stay hydrated. No glass in the bathhouse please.
We have flip flops available for sale, or you may bring your own, clean bathhouse footwear.
Tipping is optional and always appreciated!
Our team works hard to create a space that’s welcoming, and restorative, and of course—clean.
If we made your day, this is one meaningful way to let us know.
There’s a growing body of research behind what bathhouse goers have known for centuries: The benefits of saunas and cold plunges go beyond feeling good. They’re measurable. Read more about the benefits of sauna use for the cardiometabolic system and hypertension, the role of cold plunges in exercise recovery and on lowering high blood pressure, and how alternating hot and cold therapy does everything from regulating the parasympathetic nervous system to reducing inflammation, improving symptoms of endometriosis, and unlocking creativity.
Our individual showers and dry changing rooms are private and our restrooms are gender neutral. When it comes to storing your things, we have a communal space with wristband-activated lockers and shoe cubbies.
We are an inclusive space where everyone is welcome.
We don’t—Our bathhouse is a shared, co-ed space designed to foster inclusivity and community. Showers and dry changing areas are private, and our restrooms are gender-neutral.

We’re all about a quick selfie moment, but otherwise, please leave your phone in your locker during your visit.
