Infrared Sauna · Dunedin
Infrared sauna
in Dunedin.
Compound has two infrared saunas inside Forsyth Barr Stadium, with access available through gym memberships and selected casual options.
Infrared sauna access is included with every Compound membership. There's one sauna in each changing room. Sessions are 30 minutes, and members book them in the Compound app.
Not a member? You can use the sauna free for seven days with a Free 7-Day Trial.
The Sauna
How members
use it.
After training
Plenty of members head straight from the gym into the sauna. Train, sauna, shower, home. You can also come in just to use the sauna — you don't need to train first.
Infrared heat
Unlike a traditional sauna that heats the air around you, an infrared sauna uses infrared light to heat your body more directly. This allows it to operate at a lower air temperature than a traditional sauna.
Included, not upsold
Sauna access comes with every Compound membership. No extra fee, no separate recovery membership and no paying each time you use it.
One-Off Session
Just want
the sauna?
You don't need a membership, and there's nothing to pay. A one-off session is free for Dunedin residents — get in touch and we'll book you in.
Unlimited Sauna
Unlimited, not
by the session.
A Compound membership starts at $16.95 a week and includes unlimited sauna, so you don't need a separate sauna membership or pay for each session.
If you use the sauna twice a week, a $16.95 membership works out at under $9 a session, and the gym is included in that price.
What Else You Get
The sauna's just
part of it.
Your membership also includes the full Compound gym, with nine lifting platforms and 46m of indoor turf, plus free parking, a training programme and two PT sessions. Standard, Youth and First Responder members have 24/7 access. Off Peak members train between 9am–3pm or 9pm–3am.
