Spa and Sauna Team Member’s Wellness Challenge

By Laura Varnon, Marketing Coordinator

Zach Wylie, a sales consultant here at The Spa and Sauna Company, recently invested in a Sauna for his home. He decided to challenge himself to participate in a personal wellness challenge to encourage himself to use his new Sauna daily.

The personal challenge, which we have dubbed the 30 Sweats in 30 Days Personal Challenge, is similar to the 30 Soaks in 30 Days Personal Challenge we currently encourage our new Hot Tub owners to participate in.

All new Hot Tub owners in the Reno/Sparks area get a package in the mail, including a Calendar, Flier and Stickers to track hot tub usage, shortly after their hot tub is delivered. We at The Spa and Sauna Company believe that if you have a hot tub or sauna, you should be using it. If you use your hot tub or sauna frequently when you first acquire it, you are more likely to stick with the habit as long as you own your hot tub or sauna.

About Zach’s Sauna

Zach’s sauna is a Finnleo Sauna, which is available at The Spa and Sauna Company’s Reno and Sparks locations. He selected a Finnleo HM 44, which is an indoor traditional sauna, 4 feet by 4 feet. This model works with a standard 110V outlet, so no special electrical hookup was required.

The Spa and Sauna Company carries InfraRed and Traditional Saunas and can provide Custom or Pre-Fabricated Saunas. Saunas start at about $1,999.

“The health benefits of this are worth the investment,” Zach said.

About Zach’s Personal Challenge

During the Personal Challenge, Zach decided to increase the temperature and duration of his Sauna sessions. He currently likes to spend about 21 minutes in the sauna and keeps his sauna set in the low 170-degree range.

He decided on those temperatures and durations based on some Sauna studies he has read and personal preference.

After completing the Challenge, he has decided he prefers to use his sauna in the morning. Using a built-in timer, he can plan for his sessions daily.

“Because it is invigorating, it’s a great way to start the day,” Zach said.

Health Benefits

Health benefits Zach has already experienced include relaxation, deeper sleep, and improved range of motion after a shoulder injury.

Sparks Veteran Awarded FREE Hot Tub

By Laura Varnon, Marketing Coordinator

The Spa and Sauna Company, spa manufacturer Sundance Spas, and the charity Wish for Our Heroes have teamed up to award a local veteran, Kevin Vogt, a free Sundance Spa as a small thank you for his military service.

This is the second time in less than a year that the organizations have worked together to award a local veteran a free spa.

Kevin, who lives in Sparks with his wife and son, has been in the Army National Guard for almost 20 years now. He is currently a few months away from retiring. Kevin most recently served in Kuwait in 2016-2017. He has also served in Afghanistan, Iraq, and Egypt.

“We, at The Spa and Sauna Company, are honored to fulfill this hot tub donation, in conjunction with Sundance Spas and Wish for Our Heroes,” said Spa and Sauna Co. Owner Scott Clark. “We are incredibly grateful to Kevin for his Service to our country and the sacrifices he and his family have made during his many overseas deployments. We wish Kevin and his family years of enjoyment, family time and hydrotherapy benefits from their new Sundance Spa.”

Kevin, who has back and shoulder injuries from his overseas tours, is looking forward to the therapeutic value his new Hamilton 780 hot tub will provide. Although he has experienced daily discomfort from his injuries, there is no surgery available for him right now. Prior to receiving his hot tub, he relied on stretching for pain relief.

“I’ve had it recommended from several doctors – use hot tubs.”

Kevin started his military career in the Iowa National Guard at the age of 17 in 1999. He needed parental permission to join prior to turning 18.

“I decided military is what I wanted to do,” he said, as he explained how he graduated high school early, and spent what would have been his senior year of high school in basic training.

After joining, he attended the University of Northern Iowa, but was deployed overseas twice, so it took him 7 years to graduate. He married his college sweetheart, Courtney, and together they moved to Nevada about 10 years ago. They now have an 8-year-old son, Gavin.

On the day of delivery, only Kevin was around. Courtney was at work and Gavin was at school.

“My son is so ridiculously excited about this,” he said, of their new hot tub.

Kevin is planning to retire from the military this spring, after 20 years of service.

“It’s going to be a lot more time with the family,” he said, mentioning that he is looking forward to that, especially after time away during deployments.

Wish for Our Heroes is “a national 501(c)(3), dedicated to providing resources to the “average” active-duty military member, in order to make their deployments a little easier, and to improve the quality of their family lives while home or during deployment,” according to their website.

Together Sundance Spas, Wish for Our Heroes and Sundance Spa dealers around the country will have donated hot tubs to 35 veterans nationwide by the end of this year. The collaborative program, Hot Tubs for Heroes, was started in 2017. The organizations intend to continue donating hot tubs to veterans.

“Kevin was chosen because of his need of hydrotherapy due to multiple injuries in his back and shoulder from his service. We want to make sure Kevin receives the hydrotherapy he needs to have a better day to day life using our Sundance spa… Sundance Spas knows that hydrotherapy can be beneficial to our veterans suffering from injuries post service, which is why we’ve partnered up with Wish for Our Heroes and launched the Hot Tubs for Heroes Program nationwide,” said James Choi, Channel Marketing Manager for Sundance Spas.

This is the second spa donation in NV. Both were through The Spa and Sauna Company.

Kevin, and last year’s recipient, Daniel Rogers of Reno, actually know each other and have been on 2 deployments together. They currently belong to the same unit, although Kevin spent 9 years in Infantry before joining the Military Police.

Daniel actually referred Kevin to the program.

“This is going to be a great way for us to relax and just be together as a family,” Kevin said, of his new hot tub. “Being overseas so many times, I’ve been away for a little bit so it’s nice to be able to do something together and to have something that’s going to relieve some stress. I’m pretty excited to have it.”

We wish Kevin and his family a lifetime of happy hot tubbing in their Sundance Hamilton Spa!

Why Portable Hot Tubs Are Better Than In-Ground Hot Tubs

Find the Perfect Hot Tub!

By Laura Varnon, Marketing Coordinator

There are a variety of choices to make when it comes to getting a hot tub.

What we’re going to discuss today is why a portable hot tub is better than an in-ground or semi in-ground hot tub.

At The Spa and Sauna Company, we recommend keeping your portable hot tub portable, as it was intended. Let us explain why.

Reason 1: In-ground or semi in-ground hot tubs add a lot to construction costs

The hot tubs available from The Spa and Sauna Company are designed to be placed on a concrete pad. While you could sink them into the ground, that would require another contractor to dig a hole and possibly build a structure to surround your hot tub.

If your hot tub is placed in-ground or semi in-ground, you would require excavation, ground reinforcement, and a French drain or sump pump. That would add time and cost, and additional vendors. None of those things are necessary for hot tub enjoyment.

Plus, have you seen the cabinets on our hot tubs? They are designed to be aesthetically pleasing and functional. Why would you want to cover that up?

Reason 2: In-ground and semi in-ground hot tubs are harder to get in to

With a typical above-ground portable hot tub, you step up on a couple of steps and then into your hot tub, usually to a shelf that is about the same height as the highest step.

With a in-ground or semi in-ground hot tub, you step down into your hot tub from higher up, which means it’s a little awkward to get in your hot tub. It also increases the chances that you might slip.

It also harder to remove the cover on an in-ground or semi in-ground hot tub, because you can’t rely on the assistance of a mechanical cover lifter that pairs so nicely with a portable hot tub.

A hot tub that is harder to open and get into gets used less than one that is easy to access.

At The Spa and Sauna Company, we want to make sure you get as much use and enjoyment from your investment as possible.

Reason 3: Safety

When a hot tub is flush with the ground, you have to take extra precautions to make sure no children, pets, or inattentive adults, inadvertently step into your open hot tub.

That’s a lot less of a concern, when your hot tub is several feet above ground-level.

Reason 4: Energy Efficiency

The ground temperatures in Nevada are a lot colder than the temperature outside. That works to your disadvantage with an in-ground hot tub.

Although the temperature outside can swing by about 30 degrees from day to night, the ground temperature does not experience those variations. It just stays colder. That means the ground around an in-ground hot tub holds in the cold (not the heat) which works against your goal of keeping your hot tub hot.

You’ll end up paying more in electricity costs to keep an in-ground or semi in-ground hot tub heated.

Above-ground portable hot tubs work with the temperature and the sun exposure to reduce you energy costs.

Reason 5: In-ground or semi in-ground hot tubs are harder to access for electrical hook up

Installation is more complex. Your electrician will need access to run the wires to your hot tub. If the access area is underground it will be harder to get to. If you decide to build a structure around your hot tub, please make sure you can access the control panel and electrical hook up.

Reason 6: In-ground and semi in-ground hot tubs are harder to access for routine maintenance, routine cleaning, and service

There are times when you will need to open up your hot tub’s doors to the equipment compartment, either for routine maintenance or service. If that door is underground or even partly underground, that becomes much harder to do.

A well maintained hot tub is a hot tub that gets used more often.

Reason 7: Moving your hot tub

Should you move or decide to relocate your hot tub, The Spa and Sauna Company can help you. If you’ve submerged your hot tub, you now have a hole in your yard to fill and possible a structure to remove too.

We hope the reasons above have helped you decide if an in-ground, semi in-ground, or portable spa is right for you.

Top 5 Reasons Not to Buy from ­a Traveling Spa Show

Top 5 Reasons Not to Buy from ­a Traveling Spa Show

By Laura Varnon, Marketing Coordinator

If you are shopping for a hot tub, you might want to consider the top 5 reasons not to buy from a traveling hot tub show. We are basing these reasons on comments we have heard directly from customers of a traveling spa show, who later came to us for service or water care products.  

  1. Quality – Are the hot tubs high-quality? Have you read any reviews of the product? We recommend you do this when you are shopping for any hot tub, regardless of where you purchase it.  
     
  2. The hot tub may look great at the show. It has a cover, cover lifter and steps. But when it gets to your house, it’s the spa only. And it was dropped off in your driveway.
     

For this reason, if you do decide to buy from a traveling show, you must get everything in writing, even if it is promised to you verbally. If you expect to have your hot tub delivered to your backyard, make sure it is written in the contract. Otherwise, you will have a several hundred pound item to move before you can park your car. If the contract doesn’t explicitly state that you will receive a cover, cover lifter and steps, you aren’t getting them.

 

The Spa and Sauna Company will always deliver to your backyard. Most of our spas include delivery, a cover, a cover lifter and steps. There are some exceptions, due to the style or size of the spa. However, if you do select one of the few spas that does not include certain accessories, you can rest assured that we will make that clear to you. 

 

 

  1. The salespeople at the show may allow you to believe that they have a local showroom and service department, while they actually are based far away. You will not be able to reach them for delivery questions, routine service or repair issues.

 

At The Spa and Sauna Company, we have 3 showrooms in Reno and Sparks. We service all of the region, including Lake Tahoe, Northern Nevada and the Northern California Mountain communities. We also have water care and service departments. We are open 7 days a week. If you happen to need assistance while our showrooms are closed, we can be reached by voicemail, email and web chat.

 

  1. The salespeople may reassure you that the hot tubs they are selling are chemical free and you don’t need to add anything to them. That is simply not true.

 

We, at The Spa and Sauna Company, know that all hot tubs require water care and routine maintenance. We have many different water care options available to suit your unique needs. We also send out instructional material via email to help you care for your hot tub.

 

  1. Check their reputation. While salespeople at traveling events pitch their shows as a once in a lifetime opportunity, they visit several times a year, which makes much of what they say suspect.

Here are some reviews from a traveling spa show that frequently visits the Reno area:

So far the experience is the worst!!! This place has the worst customer service I have ever seen. Good luck if you ever try and call them, you will always be forwarded to a voicemail...!!! – Sean S, Yelp Review

Do not buy anything from this company. You will regret it. – Bob M., Yelp Review

Worst company ever!!! Do not buy a spa from them. They are overpriced and salesmen are pushy.  – Emily K., Yelp Review

Do not buy a spa from these people.  They are scam artists and do not provide what they say they will!  - Izzy M., Yelp Review

In comparison, here are some of the comments from our happy customers.

The service department went above & beyond again! – Bernard G., Google Review

These guys are great. Very friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. The delivery guys made a difficult process look easy. Quick, too. – Arthur E., Google Review

5 star service, helpful and polite. – Carolyn Rose, Google Review 

Super positive experience. Everyone that we have dealt with has been super helpful and enjoyable to talk with. – Jess M., Google Review

The Spa & Sauna Company has created a wonderful experience. – Edward R., Google Review

Great service all around! We love our new spa! – Stephanie B., Google Review

We hope you consider these reasons when you are shopping for a hot tub. We would be happy to help you in your search!

Hot Tubs Incline Village, Backyard Spa Dealer Offers Low Prices

Hot Tubs Incline Village, Backyard Spa Dealer Offers Low Prices

While there is no magic solution for improved health and wellness, there are strategies that can help you look and feel better instantly. One of the best is also the most enjoyable. Here’s how to restore health in minutes a day with a hot tub.

Rejuvenate Body and Mind A hot tub is a fantastic tool for giving you the physical and mental boost you need. With massaging jets pushing out tension and stress from the muscles, and a relaxed, distraction free environment to soothe the soul, five minutes is all it takes to rejuvenate body and mind for a healthier you.

Improve Cardiovascular Fitness Elevated heat causes the heart rate to increase—a response very similar to what happens when the body is engaged in light cardiovascular exercise. With regular use, the heart muscle strengthens, giving you the extra energy and vitality you need to do the things you enjoy.

Get Your Beauty Sleep No one can be their best when they are not getting the restorative sleep they need to function at peak levels. Use a hot tub 30 minutes before bed and put sleep aids away. Hot, massaging water is just what the doctor ordered for promoting a deep, restful sleep that finds you energized and ready to go in the morning.

To encourage local residents to check out the benefits of using a hot tub to help improve their overall health and well-being, The Spa and Sauna Company is providing free test soaks at all their showrooms. We do recommend, however, that people wanting to schedule their free 30-minute soak call us ahead of time to reserve their spot.

Soak in a Sauna to Manage Stress, Sauna Store Incline Village

Thursday, June 14th, 2018

Soak in a Sauna to Manage Stress, Sauna Store Incline Village

Sauna enthusiasts regularly cite stress management as one of the best advantages to ownership. If you’re interested in learning more about how a sauna can improve your life, here are three easy ways to reduce stress with an in home sauna.

A Distraction Free Space - When the daily grind takes its toll on your neck and shoulders, the sauna is a welcome retreat. Once inside, there’s no distraction from cell phones, email or TV. Sit back, relax and let soothing heat erase tension, rejuvenate and refresh body and mind.

Heat Relaxes Tight Muscles - Sustained, elevated heat—like from the sauna—is much better than a traditional heating pad. With intense heat targeting the entire body, relief is long lasting. Heat relaxes muscles, reducing stiffness and stimulating blood circulation for improved flexibility and range of motion.

Release Endorphins for Increased Positivity A few minutes of sauna bathing is enough to trigger the release of endorphins—the body’s feel good hormones. Endorphins promote happiness, triggering healthy positivity and the after sauna ‘glow’ that stays with you through the rest of your day.

To encourage local residents to check out the benefits of using a sauna to help improve their overall health and well-being, The Spa and Sauna Company is providing free tests at all their showrooms. We do recommend, however, that people wanting to schedule their free 30-minute test call us ahead of time to reserve their spot.

It’s BBQ Season

It’s BBQ Season

By Laura Varnon, Marketing Coordinator

The weather is warming up, Memorial Day and Father’s Day are around the corner, and you know what that means…it’s BBQ time! 

Here at The Spa and Sauna Company, we carry two unique types of BBQs – the Big Green Egg and Saber Grills. While the Big Green Egg is known for its unique appearance – it actually looks like a big, green egg – and its convection cooking methods, Saber Grills are more of a traditional-looking grill that features faster cooking time and quicker heating ability.

Recently, our Operations Manager Joe Lake hosted a BBQ for our entire team, using a Large Big Green Egg to cook up two 16-pound turkeys and a Saber Grill to cook up two tenderloins. The result was a delicious lunch, enjoyed by all the members of our team at all three locations.
 

The Big Green Egg is a ceramic cooker that uses natural charcoal and is known for quality heat retention, which helps food cooked inside of it retain moisture. It can be used to grill, roast, bake, smoke and cook at low and slow temperatures. It can cook anything from cookies, to bone-in meats, to rice pilaf. The Big Green Egg comes packaged with everything you will need to start cooking. On most models, that includes a nest, EGG Mates, premium natural charcoal, an ash tool, and an instant fire starter.

The Saber Grill is a stainless steel and uses propane, typically requiring 30% less gas than similarly styled grills. It cooks using Infrared technology and is known to heat in as little 10 minutes. It is designed so that grease drips off but does not cause flare-ups. It is also known for even heat distribution. Due to the multiple heating areas available on the main grill and the side burner, you can cook foods that require different heat at the same time.

Both the Big Green Egg and Saber Grills are only available from certified dealers, such as The Spa and Sauna Company. We have models on display at our three local showrooms, and if the model you are looking for is not on display, we can order it for you.

If you’d like to see the Big Green Egg in action, we will have a Big Green Egg EGGspert here this Saturday, May 26, 2018 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. cooking up samples for our guests at or Memorial Day Parking Lot Sale, which is our biggest sale of the year.
