Product Description

Sauna Backrests made from Canadian Red Cedar wood
Made From Red Cedar Wood

There are few smells better than the natural subtle aroma of red cedar.

Keep in mind that color and wood grain can vary slightly from backrest to backrest, as you can expect from a natural wood material.

  • Natural aroma
  • Distinct color
  • Natural resistance to moisture and bacteria

If You Relax In A Sauna

You Deserve To Relax Comfortably

This sauna backrest is designed specifically to make your regular sauna experience even more comfortable. The S-shape of the wood more naturally follows the arch of your lower back than the stark right angles of a sauna wall or the hunched-over angle of a barrel sauna.

In infrared saunas, backrests are often used to separate your back from the infrared panels and keep it in touch with a wood surface. But no matter the type of your sauna, achieve additional comfort from the curve of the cedar.

  • Ergonomic S-shape
  • Canadian red cedar wood
  • Perfect for infrared and also traditional saunas
  • Comes fully assembled and ready for use.
  • Dimensions: 20.5" x 13.75" x 2"

Zero stars. This is not ergonomic or supportive of the lower back or upper back. It is useless in the sauna. There is no comfortable way to lean against it. It has no arch to the design. I wish I had returned it. Got busy and forgot to send it back. Expensive as well.

It’s super light and kinda flimsy. It also says it’s supposed to smell really strong but mine smells like nothing, which makes me wonder if it’s used. If I weren’t disabled I’d take it to post and return it, and buy from somewhere/one else.

Ordered this for our infrared sauna. Very comfortable and easy to move to get in most comfortable position. Looks good, great that it is made of wood.

I bought this for my infrared sauna.The straight lines of the seats were hard on my back…which is why I got the sauna in the first place to help with back pain.This definitely helps. I put my red light therapy panel behind it and soak up the heat from the sauna and light from the RLT.It smells nicely of cedar. But sure if it’s True cedar or fake sprayed on it. I turned on the sanitizer cycle in my sauna several times before use.I might add some kind of anti-slip to the feet since it’s hard to hold in place.Value for the item… I think it’s a little high. Seems like it could break break, so I’m careful with it.If I wasn’t so desperate for help with my back pain I wouldn’t have spent the $69 for it.

The backrest is comfortable when I want to lay out in my sauna so I don't have to sit up straight against the wall. It is durable and smells wonderful.

Recently purchased a high-end two person, ClearLight infrared sauna. We are using it every day. We realized fairly soon that we were going to need some back rests. I looked over the options here and took a chance on this cedar wood version. I ordered one to see how it would be and within a short time ordered a second one. I chose this, not real cheap, cedar backrest as we are trying to avoid any unnecessary toxins which is one reason we went with a higher end sauna instead of one of many, many cheaper ones. Both my wife and I are about 5-9 to 5-10 and these are just adequate for our sizes. They could be a little taller but it wouldn't be that hard to add an inch or two. As they are, they are very comfortable and are recommended.
