Backyards and gardens are no longer just spaces for barbecues or storage. They are becoming extensions of the home, designed as private wellness retreats where you can unwind, tap out from daily stress, and reconnect with nature. At the same time, these outdoor spaces offer room for shared social gatherings, creating a lifestyle hub that blends relaxation with restoration.

More people are choosing outdoor saunas as a central feature of these retreats. They provide a dedicated space to recharge while enjoying the health benefits of heat therapy in a natural setting. Research shows that spending time outdoors lowers stress hormones, supports immune function, and boosts mood. When combined with the proven benefits of infrared therapy, including improved circulation, faster recovery, and deeper relaxation, an outdoor sauna transforms your garden into a sanctuary that nurtures both body and mind throughout the year.

Why Take Your Sauna Outdoors

Positioning an infrared sauna in an outdoor setting can amplify its evidence-based benefits. Studies show that infrared heat supports circulation, muscle recovery and overall relaxation by gently increasing core temperature and improving blood flow. Stepping straight from the warmth into a calm garden allows the body to cool naturally, helping stabilise heart rate and support post-session relaxation.

Access to daylight at sunrise or sunset has been linked to improved circadian rhythm, which can promote deeper sleep and steadier daytime energy. The combination of infrared therapy and time spent in nature creates a well-rounded approach to stress reduction, recovery and long-term vitality.

Set Up for Success

To get the most from your sauna:

  • Choose a level and stable base and allow space around the unit for ventilation and access.

  • Place it where you will enjoy views of your garden or sky. Sunrise and sunset add an extra restorative element.

Every Clearlight® Outdoor Sauna comes with a free Clearlight® Water Resistant Sauna Cover to protect it when not in use.

For the warranty to remain valid, one of the following conditions must be met:

  • Your sauna is always protected by the provided Clearlight® Water Resistant Sauna Cover, OR
  • Your sauna must be housed under adequate shelter or a weatherproof structure.
