Sauna Aufguss Tuesdays | A Guided Sauna Ritual in Preston
Description
Sauna Aufguss is a guided sauna ritual, led start to finish by a trained Aufguss Master. Five things working at once: steam, aroma, music, towel work, and someone guiding you through it.
Aufguss means infusion in German, and the practice has been part of European sauna culture for decades. Yours is led by Sauna Master Amanda, who trained in London under the Director of the British Sauna Society.
Whether you want a proper reset, a bit of European sauna culture, or just a better way to spend a Tuesday, this is not like any sauna session you have had before.
What Happens
Water infused with pure essential oils is poured over the hot sauna stones. Steam rises. Your Aufguss Master moves it through the room with rhythmic, choreographed towel work set to music, and the heat arrives in waves you can feel land on your skin.
It builds in rounds, with time to cool between each one. Each week brings a different blend: frankincense, citrus, lavender, mint, eucalyptus.
Why Experience Sauna This Way
In today’s world, the Sauna Aufguss ritual is especially meaningful. It offers a structured way to step out of constant digital and mental stimulation. Our minds are always ‘on.’ Aufguss creates a dedicated moment to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with your body and senses.
This multisensory ritual amplifies the heat and energy of the sauna through movement, aroma, and intentional presence. It’s a ritual that restores, awakens, and reconnects.

FAQs
- Is this the nude sauna night?
No. That is BARE, which runs separately on the second Tuesday of each month. Aufguss is a clothed experience. Bathers or a towel wrap.
- I have never done Aufguss before. Is that alright?
Yes, and most of the room will be in the same position. There is nothing to learn beforehand and nothing you need to do except sit down.
- What if it gets too hot?
Sit lower down, where it is cooler, and step out whenever you want to. Nobody will mind and it will not disrupt the session.
- Can I book for a friend?
Yes. Each guest completes their own details at checkout.
- Can I change to another date?
Yes, up to 48 hours before your session. Email info@wellnesssocialclub.com.au with your order number.
- What if I am late?
Sessions run 7:00pm to 7:55pm and 8:00pm to 8:55pm. Arrive 15 minutes before yours so you have time to shower and get seated before we begin.
If you are running late, come in anyway and see the front desk. They will slot you in.
