Description
Thermaculture Experience @ Wild Roses Festival 2025
Immerse yourself in fire, water, and rest.
Nestled in the heart of Wild Roses, Thermaculture is a ritual of deep connection—to nature, the elements, and sisterhood. Step into this sacred space to reset, reconnect, and realign. Let nature restore your body, mind, and spirit—so you can step forward as your most radiant self.
The Ritual: Hot | Cold | Rest | Repeat | Bath
🔥 HOT | Immerse yourself in the warmth of wood-fired saunas, infused with aromatic steam, local birch sauna whisks, & Saje eucalyptus.
🚿 RINSE | Refresh under the open-air shower
❄ COLD PLUNGES | Awaken your senses with an invigorating cold plunge, stimulating circulation and revitalizing the body.
🌿 REST | Gather & connect around the fire pit, sip ceremonial cacao, or stretch or lay in our shaded spots.
🌟 For the deepest benefits, we recommend completing three full cycles—allowing your body and mind to reset, restore, and recharge.
🚰 PRIVATE BATHHOUSE - Warm Bucket Shower Complete your ritual with the ultimate cleanse. Our private bathhouse allows you to mix hot and cold water for a warm bucket shower, leaving you feeling truly refreshed from the inside out. This is the perfect way to end your spa journey in total cleanliness before stepping back into the festival.
💧 A Note About This Year’s Cold Plunge Water
Last year, inconsistent water supply made it difficult to maintain the true cold plunge experience. This year, we are trucking in fresh water and optimizing cooling to ensure every session is cold, clean, and deeply refreshing.
Introducing The Pristine Plunge 💧
Our dedicated cold plunge add-on, designed for those who want the most invigorating and well-maintained experience.
Using our white Grizzle 400 Plunge we ensure:
✔ Optimal cold temperatures – regularly maintained and controlled temps with ice.
✔ A seamless experience – pre-ordering guarantees availability.
✔ Reliable freshness.
**The additional black plunges will not be regularly maintained**
This water is sourced from afar—please note that we do not have access to on-site water this year.
If you cherish your ritual plunge, we highly recommend adding a Pristine Plunge add on to your booking for consistently cool, clean, and refreshing experience. 🌿💙
💧 NEW!
💧 The Pristine Plunge | SPA Pass – Enjoy access to the pristine plunge throughout your Thermaculture Experience.
💧💧 The Pristine Clean | FESTIVAL Pass – Get everything in the Pristine Pluge SPA pass AND Enjoy unlimited access to the shower, bathhouse, and pristine plunge throughout the festival. Upgrade your experience and indulge at your leisure!
💙 To guarantee the best possible experience for everyone, please pre-order The Pristine Plunge (either as a bundle OR an add on)💧. This allows us to bring in the right amount of water and ice.

🌿 The Art of Sauna Bathing – Embracing Tradition
✔ Sauna before eating – Your body works hard while digesting food, so it’s best to allow your body to digest before adding another stressor.
✔ Pregnancy – In Finland, it is very common for women to use the sauna during pregnancy - to ease pain and discomfort. Saunaing while pregnant is a personal choice. You are the pilot of your own body – please listen to yourself and avoid pushing your limits while pregnant.
✔**Nakedness is welcomed inside the sauna and throughout the Thermaculture area.** Why Sauna Naked? For centuries, people in all parts of the globe have gathered to sweat, cleanse, and connect in their most natural state. Hygiene – Fabric traps bacteria and sweat; bare skin allows for a cleaner experience. ✔ Deep detoxification – Unrestricted sweating helps your body release toxins more effectively. ✔ Enhanced heat absorption – Direct skin contact with the heat maximizes circulation and relaxation. ✔ Keeps the cold plunges cleaner – Fabric can introduce soaps, oils, sweat, and detergents into the water. ✔ A time-honoured tradition – Outside of North America, traditional communal bathing has been done this way for centuries.
That said, please do what feels best for you. Many choose to wrap in a robe or towel outside the sauna. Wild Roses is a safe and welcoming space to explore this tradition at your own comfort level.
🛋️ What to Bring
✔ Water Vessel | Stay hydrated during your rest cycles.
✔ Seating Towel | Required for sitting in the sauna (it will get wet).
✔ Extra Towel | Keep one dry for post-session.
