Perspire Sauna Studio to Debut in Washington with Three-Unit Deal

Nation’s Leading Infrared and Red-Light Sauna Franchise to Open First Studios in the Seattle’s Eastside

SEATTLE, WA. (MARCH 5, 2024) – Perspire Sauna Studio, the country’s largest full-spectrum infrared (IR) and red-light (RL) sauna therapy franchise, is excited to make its way into Seattle’s Eastside in Washington, having secured a three-studio development agreement with locals Rich and Irina Czyzewski. The locations are tentatively planned for Bellevue, Kirkland, and Bothell, with the first studio slated to open in Bellevue later this year.

Rich, a seasoned tech professional with over 20 years of experience at companies like Microsoft and Oracle, began his wellness journey a decade ago, motivated by the challenges of maintaining health in a desk-focused career and while looking for additional ways in aiding in recovery as a trail runner. Irina grew up immersed in the sauna culture with visits to a local sauna with her family as well as weekly sauna sessions with her team as a high school track and field athlete. This background has inspired Rich and Irina to share this essential wellness experience with their community.

“Saunas are more than just relaxation, they’re a cornerstone of health and community,” said Irina. “Growing up, weekly sauna visits with my family or teammates were a way to reconnect, recover and recharge. We are thrilled to bring this tradition to the Eastside in a modern and accessible way, giving our community a space to prioritize their health and well-being.”

There are a variety of benefits that members of Perspire Sauna Studio experience with regular infrared sauna and red-light therapy use:

Preventative wellness
Improved physical recovery
Boosted immune system responsiveness
Rejuvenated and clearer skin
Improved sleep

Perspire Sauna Studio has taken an active role in advancing the research behind the modality’s full range of health capabilities, which has proven a significant selling point for those looking to get involved with an impactful brand that’s making holistic health more widely accepted, accessible, and comprehensive than ever.

“We are excited to welcome Rich and Irina to the Perspire Sauna Studio family and bring our innovative wellness solutions to Eastside Washington,” said Perspire Sauna Studio Founder and CEO Lee Braun. “Their dedication to health and passion for serving their community will undoubtedly make their studios a cornerstone of wellness.”
