Transform Your Backyard into a Luxury Wellness Retreat
By Westbuilt Wellness
Your backyard can become more than just an outdoor space. With the right design and high-quality wellness equipment, it can serve as a personal sanctuary for recovery, relaxation, and rejuvenation.
At Westbuilt Wellness, we specialize in helping homeowners create luxury wellness spaces that blend beauty, function, and nature. Our curated collection features premium American brands like Sweat Kingdom and ReGen Total Wellness, known for their craftsmanship, performance, and timeless design in sauna and cold therapy equipment.
1. Start With a Vision
Every great backyard wellness retreat begins with a clear vision. Think about how you want your space to feel: peaceful, grounding, energizing, or spa-like. Whether you imagine a cozy cedar sauna surrounded by greenery or a modern open-air setup with a cold plunge nearby, your layout should make the experience feel natural and relaxing.
Tips for designing your wellness space:
• Create a smooth flow between your sauna and cold plunge tub.
• Stone or wood decking can add a beautiful, finished look, but it is completely optional. Any clean, stable surface such as concrete, pavers, or composite patio flooring can work perfectly.
• Add plants, soft lighting, and privacy panels to enhance the ambiance.
• Choose a location with easy electrical access and proper drainage for convenience and safety.
The goal is to design a space that fits your lifestyle, whether that means minimal and modern or natural and cozy.
2. Choose the Centerpiece: A Sauna
A sauna is the heart of any luxury home wellness retreat. At Westbuilt Wellness, each sauna is selected for exceptional craftsmanship, heat performance, and long-term durability.
From intimate one to two-person builds crafted for personal relaxation to expansive models designed for families or retreats, every sauna in our collection features premium Western Red Cedar for rich aroma, efficient insulation, and timeless appeal.
Whether you prefer a rounded, minimalist silhouette or a spacious cabin-style layout, each sauna encourages detoxification, muscle recovery, and stress relief, turning your backyard into a destination for restorative living.
3. Add a Cold Plunge for Complete Recovery
To complement your sauna experience, incorporate a cold plunge tub for powerful contrast therapy. Cold immersion helps reduce inflammation, improve circulation, and boost mental clarity.
At Westbuilt Wellness, our cold plunge collection is built for year-round outdoor performance, featuring durable materials, efficient chilling systems, and minimal maintenance. Each model is engineered for daily use and effortless operation.
Pairing a sauna with a cold plunge creates a complete wellness circuit that strengthens the body, restores balance, and provides lasting energy.
4. Design a Backyard That Feels Like a Retreat
Creating a luxurious wellness space is about more than just equipment. It is about crafting an experience that feels intentional and immersive.
Design elements that elevate your retreat:
• Natural materials like cedar, stone, or textured neutrals.
• Warm LED lighting to set the tone for evening sessions.
• Greenery and privacy features such as tall grasses, bamboo, or garden screens.
• Soft soundscapes like trickling water or ambient music.
• Comfort details including robes, loungers, and side tables for rest and recovery.
These thoughtful touches turn your backyard into a high-end wellness escape that you will want to use every day.
5. Care for Your Investment
Your wellness equipment is designed to last, and with simple maintenance, it will continue to perform beautifully for years.
• Wipe and ventilate your sauna after each use.
• Keep your cold plunge covered when not in use.
• Clean filters and refresh water regularly.
• If you want to preserve the rich cedar tone, apply a light UV-protective seal every year or two. If left unfinished, cedar will naturally age into a beautiful silvery gray that requires no treatment.
A little routine care goes a long way toward preserving both beauty and performance.

Your home should be more than a place to live. It should be a place to restore and thrive.
