A bathhouse is a venue built around heat and cold: usually a traditional sauna, often a steam room and infrared room, plus ice baths or cold plunges and a lounge to rest between rounds. Sessions commonly run 60 to 120 minutes, and advertised prices at Australian venues often start around $25 to $50 per session.
