Purification Through Heat and Breath

Steam Showers

Steam bathing uses moist heat—typically 110–120°F with near-100% humidity—to deeply relax the body while supporting respiratory health, circulation, skin hydration, and nervous system downregulation. Clients often choose steam for its gentler, more enveloping heat, making it ideal for relaxation, stress reduction, sinus and airway support, and post-workout recovery without the intensity of dry heat. Hydra typically recommends steam for those seeking a spa-like, restorative experience, or as a complement to sauna and cold plunge within a balanced contrast routine. Protocols commonly range from 10–20 minutes per session, followed by hydration and cooling, with frequency tailored to comfort and recovery goals.

Installation Considerations
A steam room requires a dedicated steam generator, a water supply and drain, and proper waterproofing and vapor sealing to protect surrounding materials. Electrical requirements typically range from 240V service depending on generator size, along with adequate ventilation outside the steam envelope to manage humidity when not in use. Hydra designs steam environments with careful attention to ceiling slope, material selection, seating ergonomics, and moisture management, ensuring long-term durability and a seamless, spa-level experience within the home.
