Who we are

Small modern backyard shed and or sauna with a black door and a narrow window, located on a wooden deck, surrounded by green trees and grass, with outdoor chairs and a small table on the deck.

We’re a small Canadian company building authentic wood-fired saunas inspired by Finnish and Northern Ontario traditions. Each sauna is handcrafted using premium western red cedar and built to withstand our seasons — from deep frost to summer storms.

I come from Finnish roots, where sauna isn’t just a tradition — it’s part of daily life. Over the years, I’ve experienced saunas in all shapes and styles, each with its own story and character. I’ve always had a passion for building things by hand, ever since I was a kid playing with tools in the garage. That love for craftsmanship, paired with a strong work ethic, has led me to create functional, beautiful spaces where people can relax, reconnect, and enjoy the simple ritual of heat and cold. Sauna North Co. is my way of sharing that with others — one build at a time.

Health Benefits of a Weekly Sauna

A weekly sauna session offers a wide range of proven health benefits. It supports heart health by improving circulation and lowering the risk of cardiovascular disease, helps reduce stress by triggering endorphin release, and promotes better sleep through deep physical relaxation. Saunas also aid in respiratory function, relieve muscle and joint pain, and lower inflammation levels. The heat mimics moderate exercise by raising heart rate and metabolism, while deep sweating helps detoxify the body and cleanse the skin. Over time, regular sauna use has even been linked to increased longevity and improved overall well-being.

"Whether you're looking to support your heart, ease stress, recover faster, or simply feel better — a weekly sauna is a time-tested ritual with powerful health benefits."
