We know saunas can feel amazing when you’re dealing with tension, tight muscles, or those long pregnancy aches, but pregnancy shifts how your body handles heat, and that’s why it’s one of those things we recommend pausing for now.
Your system is already working hard to regulate temperature, support circulation, and keep you comfortable. Adding intense heat on top of that can push your body a little too far, even if it feels good in the moment.
➡️ Postpartum, on the other hand, is a different phase entirely. Once you’re healed and cleared, gentle sauna sessions can actually support recovery by easing soreness, improving circulation, and giving you a quiet minute to yourself.
Every stage of this journey has different needs, and the goal is always to help you feel safe, supported, and informed.
If you ever have questions about what’s okay and what’s not during your pregnancy or postpartum healing, give us a call. We’re here to help you sort through it.
Let us know in the comments, what’s one “is this safe?” question you’ve wondered about lately?
