Why Memorial Day Is Perfect for Sauna Shopping
Most people think of saunas as a winter thing, but the truth is that summer sauna use is incredibly popular. Pair a hot sauna session with a cold plunge on a warm evening and you'll understand why. The contrast therapy experience in summer is absolutely unmatched.
Memorial Day also lands right at the start of the outdoor project season. You're already thinking about your backyard, your patio, your deck. Adding a sauna to that plan just makes sense. And with Memorial Day pricing, you're getting a better deal than you would any other time of year (outside of Black Friday).
What's on Sale This Memorial Day
Barrel Saunas
Our barrel saunas are the centerpiece of any backyard. Built from FSC-certified heat-treated Canadian hemlock, these saunas look stunning and perform even better. With Harvia or Huum heaters, you get authentic heat and consistent temperatures every session.
Memorial Day is when a lot of people finally pull the trigger on a barrel sauna. The deals are strong, and delivery typically lines up perfectly with early summer installation.
Cold Plunges
Summer is the best season for cold plunges, full stop. Whether you're cooling down after a hot day, recovering from a workout, or running contrast therapy with your sauna, a cold plunge earns its keep every single day from May through September.
Indoor Saunas
Not everyone has backyard space, and that's perfectly fine. Indoor saunas fit in spare rooms, basements, and garages. They're popular Memorial Day picks because they require zero outdoor installation.
Accessories
Already have a sauna? Use Memorial Day deals to stock up on accessories - buckets, ladles, essential oils, backrests, and more. These upgrades are inexpensive but make your sessions noticeably better.
The Memorial Day Backyard Vision
Picture this: it's a Saturday evening in June. Friends are over. Someone's handling the grill. Music's playing. And right there in the corner of the yard sits your barrel sauna, steam rising into the twilight sky.
People take turns doing sauna rounds. Someone jumps in the cold plunge and comes out buzzing with energy. Everybody's laughing, relaxing, actually present. This isn't a fantasy - it's what happens when you invest in a backyard that's built for living.
Memorial Day is when that vision becomes reality.
Financing and Savings
Memorial Day deals are already solid, but you can make them even better:
- Affirm financing at 0% APR: Split your purchase into monthly payments with no interest. A barrel sauna for under $100/month? That's real.
- HSA/FSA through TrueMed: Your sauna or cold plunge may qualify for pre-tax health spending. That's a significant additional savings on top of the sale price.
When you combine Memorial Day pricing with financing and HSA/FSA eligibility, the total cost of ownership becomes surprisingly accessible.
Order Early for Summer Delivery
Memorial Day weekend sees a spike in orders, which is great for the deals but can push delivery times. If you want your sauna set up and ready for the first real weekend of summer, don't wait until Monday to order. Shop early in the weekend, and you'll be sweating it out before the Fourth of July.
