Guides
Guides: saunas and ice baths in Bali, with numbers
Four guides written from the workshop rather than from a brochure: what a sauna does to a villa's revenue, how big a chiller has to be when the water starts at 30 °C, why cabins go mouldy here and how to stop it, and what a recovery studio in Canggu costs to equip. Each has a table or a checklist you can take to any builder, including us.
