How to properly tie up herbs in a phyto-sauna: traditions, technique, atmosphere. Photos, videos

Thermowood Production – the #1 manufacturer of phyto-saunas in Ukraine and Europe – shares practical experience in creating a real phyto-atmosphere in mobile saunas.

Our team takes into account not only ergonomics and thermal insulation, but also zoning for aromatherapy, so that every minute in the steam room is filled with the benefits of medicinal herbs.

🔥 Why tie up herbs at all?

Dry bunches are secured correctly:

• do not fall off
• release aroma evenly when heated.
• retain their shape and essential properties
• create a visual atmosphere of a SPA garden

Thermowood Production saunas have special solutions for this: phytoshelves, wooden beams with hooks, phyto-niches and hanging frames .

🔸 1. Vertical suspension above the stove

This is the most classic and effective way of using herbs.

✅ What it looks like:

A horizontal beam (or decorative base) is installed above the stove , on which bunches of herbs are suspended vertically downwards .

✅ What does it give:

• heat and steam rise up, warming the grass
• essential oils are released slowly and evenly
• the aroma fills the entire space of the steam room

✅ Advice from Thermowood:

Use a combination of 3-5 herbs (for example: wormwood, mint, St. John's wort, sage, pine needles). This will provide a multi-layered, "live" aroma.

🔸 2. Phyto-ceiling: wreaths and bouquets under the dome

One of the most visually effective techniques. The ceiling of the phyto-sauna can be decorated with wreaths that:

• create the visual effect of a forest overhead
• when heated, the aroma evaporates gradually, from top to bottom
• create a diffuse ethereal dome

In Thermowood Production saunas with a height of up to 2.7 m, this looks especially atmospheric: steam envelops the brooms on the ceiling, and you literally inhale living steam from herbs .

🔸 3. Grass "wall" behind the back

This method has a double effect:

1. The herbs are heated by the body and the general temperature background.
2. It creates an "aroma massage" effect when you throw yourself against the wall.

Thermowood Production involves:

• the back wall with additional horizontal slats or mesh where the bundles are attached
• the ability to change the fees depending on the season (summer - cooling, winter - antiseptic)

🔸 4. Phyto-shelves for collecting herbs

We have developed convenient phyto-shelves – small open niches or boxes in the relaxation area or directly in the steam room, where you can place:

• dry collections in canvas bags
• aromatic mixtures in nets
• phytoconcentrates in glass containers

📌 Advantage:

• the client can mix and replace fragrances themselves
• easy to control the saturation of steam with aromas

💡 Additional tips from Thermowood Production:

✅ Use natural twine or cotton tape for tying - synthetics melt!
✅ The herbs should be dry , but not overdried: if they crumble easily, it's time to replace them.
✅ After 3-5 sessions, it is better to remove and replace the suspended herbs.
✅ Do not put the herbs directly on the stones with only water (decoction).
