What is CEDR Mobile Sauna
True self-care shouldn't require a commute. CEDR brings the ancient, restorative power of a traditional wood-burning sauna to your doorstep — no memberships, no crowded locker rooms, no compromises.
Founder & Sauna Host
I'm Safu, the founder of CEDR. I grew up in Puerto Rico, where I spent years as creating and operating my own tour company leading hundreds of groups through El Yunque rainforest — teaching people to slow down, breathe, and actually feel where they were. I also worked as a butler for a couple of years and learned the other half of the craft: how to take care of people so well they never have to ask.
Then I moved to Michigan, and my first winter here nearly broke me. The cold wasn't the problem — the disconnection was. No warmth, no ritual, no place to reset. When I found traditional sauna culture, everything clicked: this was the thing my new home was missing, and everything I'd done before — guiding, hosting, caring for people — had been preparing me to deliver it.
So my wife and I created CEDR: one sauna, built the right way. All red cedar, a 7-foot ceiling you can actually stand under, a large window for watching the snow fall, and a genuine wood-fired Harvia stove with löyly stones. Not a barrel, not a tent, not infrared panels, no gimmicks -the real thing.
