Ireland's Mountain Sauna Escape

So, who are we and what do we do?

TIGH’N ALLUIS – IRISH SWEAT HOUSE

Ireland has a very old tradition of sweat houses called ‘TIGH ‘N ALLUIS’, meaning ‘houses of sweat.’ Traditionally built in the form of a beehive hut and made of dry stone walls, covered in clay and turf. The ‘houses’ were a known treatment of all kinds of illnesses including rheumatism and common colds.

Here at TIGH’N ALLUIS we have created a healing space for people with an open mind and a willingness to learn through holistic modalities.

Embrace the Healing Powers of Irish Sauna Experiences

We use a mix of Irish mythology and snippets of Shamanism, which incorporates old techniques used by the Irish and other worldwide ethnic groups.

Using the four elements to heal the soul (Fire, Water, Air & Earth), our sauna experience encompasses all four elements!

*Fire is the energy source within the stove and the creator of the heat.
*Water is used to create the steam which is essentially the spirit of the sauna.
*Earth is the sauna stones and timber which are heated to imitate the womb and energy.
*Air being the oxygen the sauna uses to breathe and help the fire.

Our intention, which is our priority, is to help and to heal.
We don't pretend to be healers or Shamans but we do come with their ethics and willingness to facilitate healing.
We also aim to give our clients the best holistic experience on offer.

We have recently just opened up our very unique Mongolian Yurt Sauna, which is also a "sauna temple". Dark on the inside, it allows for a more meditative experience. It is Ireland’s only sauna of its kind. We also have a panoramic Barrel style sauna with views of the Dublin and Wicklow Mountains. We offer the unique chance to swim in our fresh water pond, as well as two plunge pools, hot tubs, and a yurt workshop space to host events.

Some very exciting times ahead. Looking forward to sharing them with you all.

“A sanctuary of wellness, rooted in ancient Irish warmth.”
