About
A preview "Sauna Garden" in lower Nob Hill, running ahead of the full Alchemy Springs bathhouse opening in 2026. Two-hour guided sessions take in a sauna, outdoor cold plunge, garden seating, thermal benches and a tea bar. Small-scale and ritual-focused rather than a full bathhouse circuit.
Good to know
- Cold plunge available on site: use it between rounds for the classic contrast cycle.
- Set up outdoors: weather is part of the experience, so dress for the walk between cabin and water.
- Bookable as a private session: rent the room for your group rather than sharing with strangers.
- Urban venue: it sits inside the city rather than at a coast or lake. A session fits into a day in town.
