Our traditional models operate at 80-100 degrees Celsius, delivering the authentic Finnish experience that research published in JAMA Internal Medicine associates with up to 50 percent reduction in cardiovascular mortality when used regularly. Each unit is built using tongue-and-groove joinery by experienced craftspeople at our facility in Newark, ensuring structural integrity that supports a 15-20 year lifespan in UK conditions. You select capacity from one-person compact units to four-person family models, then receive delivery to mainland England, Scotland and Wales within approximately 60 days of order confirmation Two-Person Traditional Saunas.

Most infrared units operate from a standard UK 13-amp plug, eliminating the need for dedicated electrical circuits. Traditional saunas require hardwired connection but deliver the classic high-heat experience favoured by regular users. All models arrive with comprehensive installation guidance, and our team remains available via health@gravitywellness.co.uk throughout setup Single-User Infrared Models.

Canadian Hemlock Construction Built for UK Conditions
Clear-grade Canadian hemlock forms the structural foundation of every Gravity Wellness sauna because this timber resists warping and resin bleed even at the 80-100 degrees Celsius sustained in traditional sauna use. The natural stability of hemlock means panels maintain tight tongue-and-groove alignment throughout years of heating and cooling cycles, preventing heat loss and maintaining efficiency. Research in Mayo Clinic Proceedings indicates that 3-4 sauna sessions per week deliver the greatest cardiovascular benefit, making long-term durability essential for users who integrate regular bathing into their wellness routine. Our approximately 60-day build time reflects the care taken in selecting, milling and assembling each panel to exacting tolerances that factory-made units cannot match.
Leicester installations benefit from hemlock timber that performs reliably in UK humidity levels, unlike cheaper alternatives that shrink or swell with seasonal moisture changes. Traditional models cost approximately 2-3 pounds per session to operate at current UK electricity rates, while infrared units run under 1 pound per use due to lower power requirements. Both options arrive with UK-compatible electrical specifications, heater units sized appropriately for the cabin volume, and ventilation designed for safe operation in domestic settings. The 15-20 year expected lifespan means your investment provides decades of daily use without structural degradation.
Handcrafted to Your Order
Every sauna is built specifically for you after order confirmation, allowing selection of capacity, heater type, interior configuration and finish details. Experienced craftspeople assemble tongue-and-groove panels by hand, ensuring joints align precisely and structural integrity meets our quality standards before dispatch to Leicester addresses.
Delivered Across Mainland UK
Delivery to Leicester and all mainland England, Scotland and Wales addresses is included in your purchase price, with no additional freight charges. Your sauna arrives approximately 60 days from order confirmation, with delivery arranged to suit your schedule and access requirements at the specified address.
Clear-Grade Canadian Hemlock Timber
We use only clear-grade Canadian hemlock because this timber naturally resists warping and resin bleed at sauna temperatures. The material stability ensures panels maintain alignment through thousands of heating cycles, delivering the 15-20 year lifespan expected from premium construction in UK conditions.
Why Leicester Buyers Choose Gravity Wellness Saunas
Gravity Wellness operates as the trading name of York House Group Ltd, Company No. 15903905, with our facility located at Meadow House, Long Bennington Business Park, Newark, NG23 5JR. We specialise exclusively in handmade saunas crafted from Canadian hemlock, built to order rather than held as inventory. This made-to-order approach means your sauna begins construction only after you confirm specifications, resulting in the approximately 60-day build time that reflects genuine craftsmanship rather than mass production. Delivery to mainland England, Scotland and Wales ensures Leicester buyers receive the same premium service as customers across our coverage area, with each unit arriving ready for installation according to the guidance we provide with every order.
The ordering process begins with selecting your preferred sauna type and capacity from our ranges of traditional saunas, infrared saunas and outdoor models. You then confirm specifications including interior layout and any customisation requirements. Our team confirms your order and provides an estimated delivery window within the approximately 60-day timeframe. Throughout construction you can contact us at health@gravitywellness.co.uk with questions, and we provide updates as your sauna progresses through the build stages to final quality inspection before dispatch.
Every Gravity Wellness sauna is handcrafted to order in Canadian hemlock, delivering 15-20 years of reliable performance to homes across Leicester and the wider UK.
Installation and Space Planning for Leicester Homes
Most Leicester installations require a dedicated space measuring slightly larger than the sauna external dimensions to allow air circulation and access for maintenance. One-person units typically occupy approximately 1000mm x 1000mm of floor space, while four-person models require around 2000mm x 1600mm depending on configuration. Traditional saunas need hardwired electrical connection to handle heater loads, typically requiring a qualified electrician for final connection to your consumer unit. Infrared models often operate from standard UK 13-amp sockets, simplifying installation significantly. Ceiling height should accommodate the sauna roof plus 100-150mm clearance, meaning most domestic rooms with standard 2400mm ceilings suit single-level sauna designs without modification.
Leicester properties benefit from indoor installation that protects timber from UK weather, though our outdoor sauna range includes weatherproofing for garden placement. Ventilation requirements are modest, typically involving a small vent low on one wall and a corresponding high vent to allow convection airflow. Floor loading is well within domestic timber joist capacity, and most installations require no structural reinforcement. Running costs of approximately 2-3 pounds per traditional session or under 1 pound for infrared use make daily bathing economically practical at current UK electricity rates.

What timber is used to build the sauna Leicester?
Every sauna Leicester is built exclusively from clear-grade Canadian hemlock, a timber selected specifically for its performance at sauna temperatures.

This material choice supports the 15-20 year expected lifespan in UK conditions.
Does the sauna Leicester require professional installation?
Traditional saunas require a qualified electrician for final hardwired electrical connection to your consumer unit, as heater loads exceed plug socket capacity.

We provide comprehensive installation guidance with every unit, and our team at health@gravitywellness.co.uk supports you throughout the setup process.

One-person units typically require approximately 1000mm x 1000mm floor area, two-person models around 1200mm x 1000mm, and four-person saunas approximately 2000mm x 1600mm. Allow additional clearance around all sides for air circulation and maintenance access. Standard UK domestic ceiling heights of 2400mm accommodate most single-level designs with adequate overhead clearance.
