A few months of waiting for a Nook sauna ensures you’re getting the highest quality, safest, and most technologically advanced sauna available. This investment will bring you years of enjoyment and health benefits, far outweighing the temporary inconvenience of waiting.

Superior Safety
Most companies stop at passing the required certifications. But for us, that wasn’t enough. We wanted to know what would really happen in those worst-case scenarios.
We jumped on the floor panels with full force. We smashed them with crowbars. We blasted them with a blowtorch to 300°C. We even ran a sauna non-stop for over 24 hours, with towels draped over the heaters.
All to prove Nook saunas remain the safest choice in Australia. With over 5,000 installations carried out by trained technicians following strict checklists, you can step into a Nook Sauna knowing every detail has been perfected for your safety and peace of mind.

Cost Effective
Our cost-effective one person sauna runs at an average cost of only $0.57 cents per hour.
Far Infrared VS Full Spectrum
We made the decision to discontinue our full-spectrum saunas in order to focus exclusively on Far Infrared (FIR) saunas. Infrared (IR) therapy has gained widespread attention for its potential health benefits, particularly in areas such as pain relief, improved circulation, and detoxification.
The concept of "full-spectrum infrared" is often used as a marketing tool to justify higher prices on infrared saunas and devices. However, research overwhelmingly supports Far Infrared (FIR) as the most beneficial and scientifically backed form of infrared therapy. Near Infrared (NIR) and Mid Infrared (MIR) have limited penetration and efficacy in comparison to FIR, with many of their supposed benefits being anecdotal or exaggerated by manufacturers.

Your sauna comes with light therapy
What is chromotherapy?
Chromotherapy, also known as Color Light Therapy, is a method of rebalancing the body by utilising coloured light. Its roots trace back to ancient Mayan civilisations and have found a modern resurgence within the confines of infrared light saunas.
Additional benefits
Colour light therapy has been recognised for its ability to diminish swelling, ease discomfort, reduce inflammation, enhance the body's wound healing capacity, and notably expedite overall recovery post medical procedures. Different hues of light have shown potential to enhance mobility, alleviate tension, and promote better blood circulation.
Mental health
Light therapy is also beneficial for mental well-being and has demonstrated effectiveness in managing Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). SAD impacts individuals with reduced sunlight exposure and a resultant lack of vitamin D, often falling under the broader category of seasonal depression. While infrared sauna light alone isn't a treatment for this condition, when used in conjunction with guidance from a medical professional, it can prove immensely advantageous.
