Aichi Nagoya City
A sacred site of Japanese sauna culture. Immerse yourself in the -25°C ice sauna and the silence of the forest.
"Wellbe Sakae" is one of Japan's leading sauna meccas, located in Sakae, Naka Ward, Nagoya City. In the "Forest Sauna," which recreates a forest in Finland, you can face yourself in silence while enjoying self löyly. The highlight is the "Ice Sauna," where a bone-chilling -25°C space is paired with an icy cold plunge bath. After that dramatic cooling experience reminiscent of a Lapland winter, you are guided into a profound state of totonou in a relaxation area where birdsong can be heard. A sauna theater where you can experience world-class heat waves is also available.

The main, spacious stadium-style sauna room. Here, impressive aufguss sessions by experienced staff are held, driving you to peak perspiration with powerful heat waves and the scent of aromatics. Thoughtful touches throughout the space let you enjoy the heat in a variety of styles, including reclining areas and seats with foot baths, making it a superb space that combines entertainment and functionality.

A self-löyly sauna themed around the forests of Finland, wrapped in silence. The dim indoor lighting and the scent of vihta help you forget the bustle of the city. By pouring water onto the sauna stones and feeling the gentle steam rise against your skin, you can enjoy a meditative experience that feels like carefully exploring your inner self. It is a symbolic sauna room at Wellbe Sakae where you can feel authentic Nordic sauna culture firsthand.

Cold enough to thoroughly cool down your body after the sauna. With crisp water quality and a stable temperature setting, it is a dependable feature that supports a rhythmic sauna rotation.
