Who is behind SaunaSoul?
Hi, I'm Maksym.
Before I created SaunaSoul, I traveled the world for eight years.
I've lived in Iceland, Asia, and New Zealand. Along the way, I hiked 4,500 km across the US on the Pacific Crest Trail. In total, I've visited over 50 countries. And no matter where I go, I always try to find a sauna.
For myself. For my health. And to see how others do it.
Sport has been a part of my life since I was a teenager. It started with martial arts, then running, triathlon, and now it's racket sports. Thanks to this, I understand how important recovery is. I know what a good sauna session can do. But for me, it's not just a way to unwind after a workout. It's also a way to reset my mind, connect with nature, and truly be in the here and now. No phones, no distractions.
When I lived in New Zealand, I helped with several outdoor sauna projects. It was there that I realized how profoundly impactful this form of relaxation can be on our lives. I was happier than ever, and the relationships I built in the sauna—being 100 percent present, unhurried, and screen-free—were deeper than any other. A few sessions could bring me closer to people than a whole weekend of conversations.
After experiences like that, I didn't want to go back to swimming pool saunas. Stuffy, dark, with the smell of chlorine right after I left. I wanted something different. Something that ended with me stepping out into nature. With a wet head, bare feet on the grass, and the laughter of loved ones nearby. And I wanted others to experience this too.
There was a lack of such solutions in Poland.
When I returned, I knew one thing: I wanted more people to feel what I felt.
Somewhere in the world, I came across a similar concept—a lightweight, portable sauna that could be taken anywhere. But I knew there was a better way to do it.
It took me several months of hard work, but I perfected every detail. From the tent's construction and materials, to the stove, to the entire brand philosophy.
This is how SaunaSoul was created.
From need, from experience and from the dream that everyone could enjoy the sauna
Wherever he wants. Whenever he wants.
And with whom he wants.
In my own way.
Our mission
SaunaSoul was created with one simple idea: to make sauna accessible to more people .
Not just once a year, at an expensive spa. That has its charm, but for everyday life, we need something closer. Something available when we really need it—after a hard day, after a workout, on a weekend with loved ones.
A sauna doesn't have to be something that requires planning, booking, driving halfway across town, and sharing space with strangers.
It can be available. Ready when you need it.
It's not just a form of relaxation.
It's a way to better sleep, less stress, and a stronger immune system.
To not get sick every month and to feel good in your body - all year round.
I created SaunaSoul to give people this opportunity.
In the garden, by the lake, on a trip.
Alone or with a loved one. Stress-free, without limits, on your own terms.
But this is just the beginning.
I want SaunaSoul to be a brand that not only offers equipment, but also teaches, supports, and builds a community around a healthy, conscious life.
You deserve to feel good. Every day.
Why SaunaSoul?
Because it's really about people.
From the very beginning, I knew I wanted to create a brand that was close – that responded, advised, listened.
We don't leave anyone alone with their purchase. You can write, ask questions, even send a vote. We're here to help—not to push anything.
We also care about doing it well – for you and for the planet.
We choose sustainable solutions, honest materials, and wise decisions. Not everything is perfect yet, but we know where we're going. And we're getting there together.
Because it's not just about the sauna.
It's about feeling better. Living happier. And having a community that supports you in that.
