Why portable
Cabin-grade heat without cabin-grade space. Portable saunas fold flat, plug into a standard outlet, and reach session temperature in under ten minutes — perfect for apartments, rentals, and home gyms.

Portable Saunas for the Modern Home.
Foldable, ready in minutes, designed to disappear when you're done. Spa-grade heat that travels with you — without the construction project.
Infrared or steam?
Infrared models are drier, gentler, and faster to heat. Steam tents are wetter, more traditional, and easier to share. Both deliver the cardiovascular and recovery benefits of regular heat exposure.
What you get
Every Thermopia portable ships with the heater, chair or mat, remote, and full setup guide. White-glove shipping is included. Lifetime support from our atelier.
The ritual
Twenty minutes a day, four days a week. That's the cadence backed by the longest-running sauna study in the world — and the cadence our owners report as life-changing.
Common questions
- Do portable saunas actually work?
- Yes. Modern portable infrared and steam saunas reach 60–75°C and produce the same physiological response as cabin saunas — elevated heart rate, sweating, and a meaningful heat-shock benefit — at a fraction of the footprint and cost.
- How much electricity does a portable sauna use?
- Most portable infrared models pull 800–1,500W and run on a standard 110–220V outlet. A 30-minute session typically costs $0.10–$0.20 in electricity.
- How long does it take to heat up?
- Portable infrared saunas reach session temperature in 5–10 minutes — far faster than traditional cabins (30–45 minutes).
- Where can I install a portable sauna?
- Anywhere with a power outlet and ~1 m² of floor space — bedroom, garage, garden room, even an apartment balcony.
