sauna terms and conditions

Slomo Sauna Terms & Conditions

Alcohol, nudity and smoking are not permitted in the sauna. Jewelry should be removed before entering the sauna to prevent burning. 

All persons using the sauna do so at their own risk. If you have any reservations regarding sauna use, such as medical conditions, underlying health problems, the use of prescription drugs or pregnancy, it is essential that you consult your GP before making a booking.

Tapnell Farm Cold Water Swimming Health & Safety

If you are attending a session at Tapnell Farm and using the cold water facilities, it is your responsibility to ensure you have read, in full, the Cold Water Swimming Health and Safety Agreement.

Sauna etiquette must be adhered to at all times, time includes:

• Sauna sessions of no longer than 20 mins at a time (we recommend 5-15 min session)

• Following operators instructions on how to pour water onto hot rocks

• Only pouring the provided ‘sauna water’ on hot rocks and nothing else

• Entering and exiting sauna in a safe manner

• Keeping access points clear to allow other users to exit safety and swiftly if needed

• Remove shoes prior to entering the sauna and ensuring feet are clean

• No touching any part of the stove

• Sitting on a towel within the sauna and removing the towel out of the sauna when taking breaks

• All persons using the ice bath, sea or river as a ‘cold plunge’ do so at their own risk.

• It is your responsibility to ensure that you are a capable swimmer and can handle being exposed to the cold temperatures and currents of sea, river or open water.

• Always enter cold water feet first, gradually immersing the body and allowing for acclimatisation. Taking some deep exhales will help this process. Never jump or dive head first as the cold shock response can hinder even the most competent swimmer. Feel free to ask our Sauna Master to guide you through the process if you are new to cold water therapy.

• If you are making a booking on behalf of a group or booking a private hire, it is your responsibility to make all users aware of these terms and conditions to ensure safe sauna practice.

• The Slow Motion Sauna operators, reserve the right to refuse admission to intoxicated persons or for other reasons that may be deemed a health and safety risk. Refunds will not be offered to anyone refused admission.

Children under 16

Children under 16 are permitted to use the saunas, strictly accompanied by an adult at all times. The relationship between the child and adult should be noted with staff on arrival at the sauna. The accompanying adult must remain present for the entire duration of the session, supervising at all times. Children under 16 are not permitted to enter the cold plunge pools and accompanying adults are responsible for ensuring this is adhered to at all times. An adult to child ratio of no more than four children per adult must also be respected when using the sauna.
