Come and experience the local Jacuzzis and Saunas sites in the Vancouver Area. As an avid Jet Sweater for over 15 years, I'm always looking to discover new locations and encourage people to take advantage of this great self care technique. Come learn and share techniques that will make "Jetting and Sweating" apart of your regular health routine! You and your muscles are gonna love it!
Beginners and regular sweaters welcome. Hoping to meet twice a month on various evenings of the week and weekends. If you are not a Jacuzzi fan, no problem perhaps hit the gym for a workout first then join us in the Sauna.
Regular sauna usage offers many therapeutic benefits:
~ relax sore, tight, overworked muscles
~ relieve daily stress and tension
~ relieve tension headaches
~ reduce and remove body toxins
~ increase cardiovascular strength
~ increase blood circulation
~ lowers blood pressure (temporarily)
~ strengthens the immune system
~ improve lung function
~ refresh and moisturize your skin
~ burn calories to help control weight
~ induce a deeper & more relaxing sleep

THE Basic JET & SWEAT ROUTINE: Start in the Jacuzzi for 15- 20 mins, getting a good water massage into all those sore muscles. Pop in the shower for a scrub and cool rinse. Warm-up and stretch in the Sauna 10 - 20 mins, rest time then another cool/cold rinse then open those pours again for a good sweat in the Sauna for 10 - 20 mins. All going at your own pace and comfort level. With practice you become more a custom to the extreme in temperatures and welcome them :)
My favorite benefits are cleansing the body of toxins; lactic acid build up; pollution; alcohol, easy joint pain and the bonus burns calories! After a good sweat I feel refreshed, revitalized and know I'm going to have a great sleep that night!
Please e-mail with any questions you may have.
Look forward to sweating it out with you all! ""Tania""

“I want to increase my options when in BC. This group could be a nice bike-to if it's in&around Vancouver. A sauna & soak is a nice idea.”

“I'm always cold (well, not in the summer). I would like to do more hot/cold switches and improve my circulation. I've been even thinking doing the Polar Bear Plunge but that's almost like mission impossible for me.”
