About Bow Sanctuary

A wellness center off Chuckanut Drive with an outdoor barrel sauna, Japanese-inspired Pacific Northwest gardens, yoga classes, and massage. Sauna sessions run one hour in a communal dry sauna that seats four, with a private infrared sauna available as an add-on to a same-day treatment. Body coverings are required and drop-ins are welcome, though seats are limited enough that pre-booking is recommended.
