"Saint, a personal sauna and ice bath concept, is now open at 242 West 29th Street, offering a fully private alternative to the city's increasingly social spa culture. Inside the space, each booking unlocks a full hour of uninterrupted solitude in your own cedar dry sauna, complete with a slate-lined ice bath and rain shower."
"It's less 'see-and-be-seen' bathhouse and more minimalist sanctuary: there are no communal lounges and no shared plunge pools. Just four individual suites designed for total seclusion. The opening arrives as wellness trends continue to lean into contrast therapy (cycling between heat and cold), but Saint reframes the ritual as intensely personal."
"Instead of group sessions or guided programming, guests are left to move at their own pace, sweating, plunging and rinsing on their own terms. The concept taps into a broader shift toward screen-free recovery spaces in a city that rarely slows down."
Saint, a newly opened Chelsea wellness studio, provides fully private contrast therapy experiences featuring individual cedar dry saunas, slate-lined ice baths, and rain showers. Each hour-long booking offers complete solitude without communal spaces or shared facilities. The concept reflects a growing wellness trend toward contrast therapy—cycling between heat and cold—while prioritizing personal recovery over social wellness scenes. Designed by Bond Studio with visual identity by Brooklyn creatives, the space emphasizes minimalist aesthetics and material-focused design. Four individual suites ensure total seclusion for guests seeking screen-free recovery. Pricing begins at $90 per session, with founding memberships available for regular users. The studio operates within a luxury tower developed by MAG Partners.
